“…We continue to blur the lines between in-store and online shopping by allowing eBay shoppers to conveniently scan products to find the best deals virtually anywhere, anytime”, says the company.
In combination with RedLaser scanning technology, the new mobile app allows repeat sellers scan a product and list it on eBay in 60 seconds or less.
If one user is listing a similar item sold or selling on eBay, users can simply activate eBay’s “Sell One Like This” feature to create a listing that is automatically populated with information like category and item condition. Easy tool for the casual seller.
The new app is only available for the eBay US listed products database in the US. Users can download the new app since 22nd November from iTunes.
In 2009, eBay’s mobile gross merchandise volume (GMV -the value of all goods sold-) reached more than $600 million. eBay expects to generate $1.5Bn in GMV through mobile commerce in 2010.
