eBay is retiring its eBay Marketplace Research tool on September 15, 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'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's tool, including up to two years of category trends, seller-specific searches, and dedicated customer support.
Fred Speckeen, CEO of Terapeak/AERS, said, "The transfer of research responsibilities to Terapeak reflects our longstanding business relationship with eBay, and our company's commitment to providing the best market research product possible. Although most eBay sellers know us for our Terapeak product, 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."
