I like the idea of phone alerts for eBay auctions. If adopted, the technology could provide a boast in sell through rates and end prices for sellers....
Based in Austin, Texas, eBay Web Services developer Unwired Buyer is behind the launch of eBay Phone Alerts, which recently rolled out across all categories on eBay.com.
As announced at eBay Live! in June, Phone Alerts will call you with updates about all items on your watch list - or that you are currently bidding on - when the auctions for these items will be ending in the next three minutes. You can get the current price of the item. You can check the status of an existing bid. Best of all, you can actually bid from your phone if you need to, using the phone’s keypad.
