			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>eBay is retiring its eBay Marketplace Research tool on 15th September 2008, according to Terapeak, an eBay Certified Provider, whose tool will be offered as an alternative. Marketplace Research by Terapeak will be accessible from the eBay website, with Terapeak providing dedicated customer support. Terapeak&#8217;s tool provides research for sellers based on completed eBay listings. Terapeak said it plans to extend the range of reports and features that were available with eBay&#8217;s tool, including up to two years of category trends, seller-specific searches, and dedicated customer support.</p>

<td width="374">
<p>Fred Speckeen, CEO of Terapeak/AERS, said, &#8220;The transfer of research responsibilities to Terapeak reflects our longstanding business relationship with eBay, and our company&#8217;s commitment to providing the best market research product possible. Although most eBay sellers know us for our Terapeak product, Advanced Economic Research Systems (AERS) was the first licensee of eBay data, and also provides e-commerce analytics based on eBay data to the larger Fortune 1000 community. We are proud and excited to be invited to offer Terapeak as an alternative to eBay Marketplace Research.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;Millions of eBay transactions are analyzed and processed by AERS systems each day,&#8221; says AERS CTO Andrew Sukow. &#8220;We continue to improve our processes, our systems and the Terapeak product in order to help eBay sellers maximize their profit potential.&#8221; Marketplace Research by Terapeak will provide important and useful research for eBay sellers based on completed eBay listings. Terapeak plans to extend the range of reports and features that were available via the eBay tool. These new features include a greater data history, including up to two years of category trends, seller-specific searches, and dedicated customer support.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A number of changes to the Category Structure on eBay.com.au will be introduced this month.</p>
<p>These changes are being made in an effort to simplify the finding experience for buyers, and help make listing easier and faster for sellers.<span style="font-family: Courier New;"> </span></p>
<p><span id="more-30"></span></p>
<p>Changes will be made in the following categories:<br />
 </p>
<ul>
<li>Antiques</li>
<li>Art</li>
<li>Business, Industrial</li>
<li>Cameras</li>

</ul>
<p>View the complete list of <a href="http://pages.ebay.com.au/aug-cat-changes.html" target="_blank">changes for each category</a>.</p>
<p><strong>How will these changes impact sellers? </strong></p>
<p><strong>Recurring listings </strong><br />
Any seller who automatically relists items in any of the above categories using a third party or eBay tool (such as Turbo Lister or Selling Manager Pro) will need to make a bulk edit of listings to ensure all items are listed within the correct category number.</p>
<p><strong>New listings in these categories</strong><br />
For Turbo Lister and third party listing tools you will need to download updates to ensure the category structure reflects this change.</p>
<p><strong>Important note for all sellers</strong><br />
Please be aware that certain brand name categories will be created within the Jewellery category. Items of these brands will be required to be listed in their respective categories while items compatible with, related or unrelated to the brand name are required to be listed in a different category.</p>
<p>Ensure you use Item Specifics and include appropriate keywords in your titles to help facilitate the relevancy of searches for buyers. Any existing listing will automatically be migrated to the new category structure. Item Specifics will remain a part of the listing process.</p>
