GoAntiques.com features PriceMiner™ at eBay Live! 2005

COLUMBUS, Ohio – Antique buyers, sellers, appraisers and consumers will see the industry’s most powerful new resource for pricing antiques and collectibles at eBay Live!, June 23-25 at the McEnery Convention Center in San Jose, Calif.
Called PriceMiner™ (www.priceminer.com), the Internet tool from GoAntiques.com (www.goantiques.com) is a powerful aggregator of pricing information from a variety of internationally recognized sources. By simply keying in attributes of the item you wish to buy, sell or value on your personal computer, SmartPhone or Palm device, PriceMiner performs a search through millions of prices and presents historical pricing information for the same or similar items. In addition, the service analyzes the data for you so you don’t have to sort through massive amounts of numbers.
PriceMiner will be featured at the GoAntiques.com booth #532, next to eBay® Collectibles.
“PriceMiner is the first product to combine historical data from multiple external sources with GoAntiques.com’s vast archive of merchandise sales information, perform analysis and then present findings on price averages and ranges,” said Jim Kamnikar, GoAntiques.com president and chief executive officer. “Antiques professionals as well as consumers will find PriceMiner to be an unparalleled pricing knowledge tool for accurately assessing the value of antique and collectible merchandise to buy or sell.”
In addition to GoAntiques.com’s historical price information, PriceMiner includes auction results from the vast eBay® historical database and online storefront sales provided by TIAS.com.
Search and sort criteria include price range, category, sale date, data source and currency, with the later being conveniently converted to dollars.
Other PriceMiner features include:
• The ability to use photos to closely match the item you are pricing.
• The option of saving individual searches for later reference.
• Links to merchandise for sale that match the search criteria.
• No-cost use for GoAntiques.com member dealers.
• Convenient subscription program for non-GoAntiques.com members.
In addition, a mobile version of PriceMiner that works on hand-held devices such as SmartPhones and Palm devices is now available. This allows subscribers to ascertain the value of antiques and collectibles – right in the palm of their hand – as they attend auctions or browse through shows and shops with wireless access.
PriceMiner subscriptions start at $9.95 a month or can be structured at $99 annually, both for unlimited use. The mobile version is $14.95 per month.
An affiliate referral program is available that includes providing PriceMiner directly from e-commerce Web sites.
