VCP and auction houses

I want to be clear that I am not saying that this is what VCP is asking from the auction houses in any way, shape, or form, as I have no idea. I'm simply responding to the comments made in this thread.

This is a very simple xml feed that is provided by the auction houses software company and takes just a few minutes and is at no additional costs to them.

What sounds strange to me is that 3 auction houses decided to do this at the same time
Nothing like having buyers pay waaay over current market price for an item,right?

Of course, that makes perfect sense to me now Bobby. Thanks for clearing that part of it up for me as I obviously have no idea about website technology, as well as many other things...

Do all of the other Auction houses participate with you?

Also, how in the world do you gather all of the sales info from ebay? Does ebay give you an xml feed as well?

Anyway, I'm going back to the memorabilia side were I belong...

My best, Jimmy

We have an eBay license and they provide us with API system. We cover most of the auction houses as well as Grandslam once they launch later this month, hopefully.
