Auction Mills and Infopia Partner to Launch New eBay Consignment System

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 24, 2004--Auction Mills Inc. (Pink Sheets:AUML) partners with Infopia Inc. to launch dynamic new eBay consignment technology.


Infopia Inc. and Auction Mills Inc. plan to release Auction Mills Marketplace Manager(TM) in conjunction with the first round of company-owned stores scheduled to open in September.

Infopia is the developer of Marketplace Manager(TM) and specializes in providing innovative ecommerce solutions to retailers, manufacturers and eBay Power Sellers. Infopia brings years of eBay management, CRM and ecommerce and logistics experience to the partnership. eBay awarded Infopia the 2004 Innovative Developer of the Year at the recent eBay Live convention in New Orleans.

Auction Mills and Infopia have agreed to a channel partnership where Infopia will power the engine for the Auction Mills Web site infrastructure. This will allow area developers and franchisees to focus on the building of their business, rather than managing their backend systems.

"We are enthusiastic about the opportunity that Auction Mills has presented to our company. They are well-poised to capture significant market share in the auction consignment industry and have created a very exciting franchise opportunity," said Jalali Hartman, EVP of Product Development at Infopia in Salt Lake City, Utah. "Collaborating on this project to implement an inexpensive Web-based eBay and consignment management solution we believe we can dramatically increase the flow of collectibles and practicals onto eBay and ultimately increase the profits of each franchise owner."

"Our partnership with Infopia has allowed us to launch a comprehensive eBay consignment system for our franchise owners. Auction Mills franchise owners will be able to leverage an award-winning ecommerce platform that is tailored to meet their specific needs," said Michael Uskovich, CEO of AuctionMills. "Now franchise owners can get up and running quickly and easily, while managing their business anywhere they have a Web connection."

Matters discussed in this press release are "forward-looking statements." Statements describing objectives or goals or the Company's future plans are also forward-looking statements and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including the financial performance of the Company and market valuations of its stock, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated.
