Hi from paris/france
At first, thanks +++ for your job, great, really
the "Sell Price" search is a very interesting feature. You might improve it by allowing search worldwide (not only ebay.US).
You may restrict the area trough a list with all the ebay sites and a comboBox and multiselect (or N checkboxes).
It will be interesting to focus on the searching period (last month, last 3 month...)
Regards ans 10000000000000 apologises for my poor english language level

Another idea.. | Sun May 11, 2008 10:34 PM | | |

My idea for more accurate market averages:
Disclaimer: The %'s may need to be tweaked..
1. Take all prices based on a search and get the average.
2. Create a range that is 66% to 133% of this average..
Example: A search for 'Widget' might return 200 results with an average price of $50. The range for $50, with the above %'s, is $33.33 to 66.66..
3. Now average out the search results that fall within the newly created range..
What this would do is pinpoint a more precise average by removing auctions that probably shouldn't be included in the average.. For example, broken items that sell for 50% or less, multiple same-item auctions, or auctions that are lots (such as a console system that comes with games and accessories)..
Another idea could be to eliminate auctions that contain certain strings, like -"as is" -"broken" -"lot"
Hope this helps!

I personally do it like this:
I search for something, and then I see some items which do not really belong to my results, then I exclude it from the search and search it again.
Unfortunately, I can't guess the percentage and guess what is your range... maybe you are looking for something below the average?
Try to exclude words. For example:
you don't need "as is", then put it like this:
widget -"as is"
