Consignment Platform for Business Growth
Slab Sharks, a Canadian consignment business, offers a platform for buying and selling sports cards. It integrates eBay, the world’s largest e-commerce marketplace, to facilitate auctions and exchanges. SapientPro was tasked with automating manual processes via the eBay API and building a dashboard for tracking sales. Our collaboration successfully automated their operations.
Our Collaboration Story
In June 2023, Slab Sharks approached SapientPro to digitalize their consignment business and boost conversion rates. Previously, they relied on manual processes for receiving cards, posting eBay listings, and processing payouts.
Our team built a platform that automated these tasks and provided real-time tracking. We completed the wireframes in 2 weeks, design in 3 weeks, and finalized development in 4 months. Launched in January 2024, the platform attracted more users, increased sales, and paved the way for sustained expansion.
Challenges
Navigating eBay API Complexity
Our developers tackled outdated structures, fragmented versions, inconsistent documentation, and delayed response times from eBay support to ensure seamless platform integration.
Building a Flexible Project Framework
We designed a resilient and responsive framework that allows for scope adjustments and maintains system stability.
Real-Time Product Data Updates
The system was configured to provide real-time updates on product data, including prices, bid counts, and sales.
Landing Page Optimization for Conversions
We tailored the landing page to boost conversions by creating a compelling, informative design aligned with the client’s minimalist style and logo. We also prioritized content to stay competitive and optimized the user flow for better engagement.
Mobile App Development
To enhance the user experience, we developed a mobile app mirroring the platform’s features and design, catering to user preferences
Merch Store & Reward Program
Our team built a fully functional merch store and implemented the client’s reward program, bringing their vision to life.

Features That Connect & Guide
The Slab Sharks Web App Features
User-Friendly Sign-Up Process
The sign-up process is simple. Users create an account by entering personal details and setting a secure password. After logging in, they can access the dashboard and link their preferred payout method in the settings. This simplified process enables quick account setup and platform readiness.
Comprehensive User Dashboard
We designed an intuitive dashboard that enhances the consignment and auction experience. Users can submit items, track consignments, monitor auction activity in real time, and review detailed payout reports. This functionality ensures users stay informed throughout the consignment and auction process, improving their overall platform engagement.
Automated Consignment Submission
The consignment submission process is user-friendly and efficient. Users enter item details, print forms for shipment, or schedule a drop-off. The system tracks the package, updates placement dates, and allows consignors to choose delivery dates and times. This process secures smooth handling and timely auction preparation.
