Mpire powers eBay Pop

eBay Certified Provider and Developers Program member Mpire has launched eBay Pop, (www.ebay.com/ebaypop), a new, free service that captures the buying buzz and sales trends on eBay in a fun, informative way – with a twist of current events and pop culture.

Mpire worked with eBay to develop eBay Pop, including its design, sales data and analysis, interactive games, editorial content and blog. The page uses eBay Market Data to drive updated content.

Scott Mencken, Senior Manager Relationship Marketing at eBay, told us about his experience building eBay Pop: “I think what we have created captures a lot of the spirit that we hope to infuse into eBay in the future. It also establishes working relationships with eBay developers who are a key resource for future development.”

eBay buyers and sellers can now view a variety of sales trends on eBay, including top items sold on eBay, ranging from iPods™ and TMX Tickle Me Elmo™ to NASCAR™ collectibles and current-event memorabilia.  Sales figures related to various topics and search terms within eBay Pop are a reflection of the shopping habits of nearly 94 million Americans on eBay.com, which has become a barometer for U.S. popular culture.
