eBay Extends Search to 15 Days
By Ina Steiner
AuctionBytes.com
eBay has returned the completed item search to 15 days. When users search the eBay site for auctions, they can limit the results to "completed items." Many members use this feature to determine the approximate market value of items they are considering buying or selling, so the more days included, the better. eBay has been shrinking the number of days included in completed item search as the site grows. After a "Free Listing Day" on their Site last December, eBay changed the completed item search to only include 10 days of completed items, rather than 15 days, due to software capacity issues.
