Reminder: AuctionBytes-Update does not endorse the products and services featured in the "This & That" column, which often features new Web sites. (Anyone can set up a Web site.) Fraud has become widespread in the online auction world, and you should think twice before giving private information or User IDs and passwords to any third party.

By Ina Steiner
Without evaluating the conclusions drawn by this writer about prices of Wii versus PlayStation 3 on eBay, it's interesting to see the kind of discussion generated by the data both by the original poster and by readers contributing comments. It proves, eBay data is not just for sellers.
