Mobile eBay Purchases Up 30% This Year



On "Black Friday" of 2010 (the day after Thanksgiving), eBay saw a 30 percent increase in mobile bidding activity, compared to 2009 levels. And since the launch of its first mobile application in July 2008, nearly 30 million items have been bought or sold using eBay mobile apps around the world.

eBay sales in the United States from its suite of mobile apps nearly doubled over Black Friday 2009.

Globally, eBay mobile is on track to nearly triple its sales over last year and is expected to bring in well over $1.5 billion in mobile sales this year.
