eBay stores offers RSS

Augmented Reality 1 Minute

eBay Stores just enabled RSS so you can now subscribe to a feed of the newest items listed in that store. PetriFinds is one of the stores that has turned on the feature already, and you can see the RSS link at the bottom of the store page. Here is the RSS feed link. eBay has offered RSS Feeds on the community boards and system announcements for a while, but this is the first time that eBay has offered feeds on the eBay Platform (by that I mean, feeds that involve items listed on eBay).

  2. I have always found Ebay to be a little slow taking on new features, they are paranoid about opening their market place. They seem to protect it and covert it which I think is leaving them behind or at least exposed moving forward, Microsoft opportunity?

    Actually one of Ebay’s divisions/outfits/aquisitions – Paypal is ripe for the taking if you ask me. I would love to see some real competition for paypal, why ?
    1) Their API is convoluted
    2) Their documentation suck, is out of date and is generally innaccurate
    3) Their customer saervice is abysmal even as a developer

    Just check out their developer forums if you don’t believe me geeks are drowning down there..

    Come on Microsoft there’s a reall opportunity for a comapany in your league to do it right in a developer (and customer) centric fashion. How about adding that kind of service to your customer ICC’s ?

  15. Welcome to the club eBay.

    Not to tout our own horn here too much…

    However, Bidera auctions ( http://www.bidera.com ) has offered full category and subcategory RSS feeds for all of their auctions since middle of last year(June of 2004). In fact, I believe Bidera was the first to do so a few other smaller players followed thereafter. If anyone, has any information which of any general purpose auction website which offered RSS for actual auction listings before Bidera, I would love to know.

    Of course, one can sort of understand that for someone as huge as eBay going full RSS was not an option initially.
