With print classifieds dying a slow death, could online video classifieds be the next big thing?

Enter selltube.com, a US-based online video classifieds website.

selltube.com is free to list and free to use, and aims to provide a video classified service that gives buyers and sellers a central location to buy and sell anything.

Advertising itself under the cover-all slogan “Sell your stuff. Sell yourself. Sell anything” selltube.com claims to be the world’s fastest growing video classified website.

On selltube.com everything gets sold through an online video experience – no pictures, words or standard print or online classifieds. Just video.

There are categories for selling general stuff, services, cars, jobs, community, and of course real estate, rental, and more.

While some of the real estate videos are little more than grainy slide shows hosted by YouTube, there’s potential for them to be much more.

A smattering of agents including some from big name brands like Century 21 are using the service, while private sellers can also list videos.

Prospective buyers can also subscribe to a sellers video feeds.

Online video classifieds is certainly a growing market – selltube.com faces competition from realpeoplerealstuff.com, imoondo.com, cellit.us, cmylist.com, iposte.org, and vadlist.net, just to name a few.
