QuikDrop on Television Road Tour in Search of Collectables for Auction on eBay

QuikDrop on Television Road Tour in Search of Collectables for Auction on eBay

CARSON CITY, Nev., June 22 /PRNewswire/ -- QuikDrop International announced today that it will be at the Long Beach Convention Center in California on Saturday, July 2 to participate in the filming of Discovery Channel's new television show, POP NATION: AMERICA'S COOLEST STUFF. The public is invited to bring American pop-culture items to this event to get a professional, free appraisal. Some attendees will get a chance to put their items up for auction on eBay and be on national television.

POP NATION: AMERICA'S COOLEST STUFF is a television event that combines America's fascination with collecting pop memorabilia and selling it at online auctions. The new primetime series, which will premiere on Discovery Channel on Saturday, October 1 at 8 PM (ET/PT), focuses on one of the fastest-growing segments of the collecting craze: U.S. pop culture items from the 1960s to today.

Only items from the 1960s to today will be freely appraised. Participants can bring a maximum of three items with them to the event, but must be able to carry them into the convention center. Only one item will get an appraisal. Examples of items that may qualify include: TV memorabilia, toys, movie memorabilia, vintage clothing, sports memorabilia, and items around the house such as appliances, dishes, tools, portable furniture, lamps, print collectibles and clocks.

Stories will unfold throughout each episode as collectors, appraisers and QuikDrop experts ask themselves, "What is it? What's it worth? How badly do I want it? Or do I really want to sell it?" Owners of the items have three options after the appraisal: they can sell the item for cash, sell it online or they can keep the item. At the end of each episode viewers will find out which items will go to an eBay auction coordinated by QuikDrop.

QuikDrop opened the very first eBay drop-off store franchise in August 2003. Since that time, they have sold millions of dollars worth of items on eBay for thousands of customers in the United States and abroad. QuikDrop is the largest and fastest growing chain of stores specializing in selling products on eBay for third parties.
