Interesting (re) exposure eBay is providing for us!

Today when I went to Yahoo finance to check the price of the Canadian dollar (yayyyy I scored about a half a cent "profit" by cashing before they got their rates adjusted higher!) at the top in the advertising bar was an ebay ad that said something like:

 

"eBay nice find now seal the deal" on the left

a recent item that I had looked at in the middle (the primary picture and the title)

something like check it out again or more on the right which was a link to the item (I didn't write the right hand text down)

 

I thought it was worthwhile to mention this, that's the first time I've seen that ad, and I think it is good, may just make the odd person act on a watched item!

 

(PS in my case it was moot, it was one of my own items, a completed one that I had just relisted this morning! 🙂 )

I too have had banners pop up on websites like this as well. They seem to be custom tailored from recent ebay searches and/or recent viewed items.

I think that it has to do with cookies.  When you search for anything, then later on it shows up as advertising on any websites you visit.  That doesn't mean it shows up for everyone.  Just for you because you have been on ebay recently.
