==History==
PropertyRoom.com was founded by former police officers and detectives in 1999. The idea for the company was developed after observing a large amount of abandoned, seized, and recovered goods in the police property and evidence rooms. If police agencies are not able to return the stolen merchandise to the rightful owners, by law they must sell seized, recovered, found, and unclaimed personal property at public auction.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2012/02/03/crime-evidence-going-on-the-auction-block-online/ )〕 Instead of having traditional auctions with auctioneers where only people who attended could bid, PropertyRoom.com was created so that these goods could be auctioned online where people across the entire United States could place bids 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. For the clients using PropertyRoom.com's service, they handle the pickup of the item from the client, processing and refurbishing if needed, and shipping to winning bidder. The name PropertyRoom.com was derived from the location that agencies hold the confiscated and stolen goods, the property and evidence rooms.
PropertyRoom.com closed their first online auction in 2001. Shortly after launching the website, other municipal agencies such as fire departments, ambulance services, and parks departments also contracted PropertyRoom.com to auction off their excess goods.
