I recently received a request from a student for sources of data on eBay’s sales figures.  As any eBay watcher will know, these are rather difficult to obtain.  Here are the sources which I have found most useful:

• eBay press releases and company info 
• eBay investor presentations   
• eBay shop totals 
• Bear sterns analyst report
• eBay auction counts
• Analysis tools – Auction intelligence is the best for getting statistics on eBay category level.  eSellerStreet is good for quick product analysis
• eBay’s top 10000 sellers from sellathon 

If anyone has any other suggestions I would love to hear them!

 

If you found this post useful, why not buy me a coffee!
