New feature
Posted: Fri Jun 29, 2018 5:11 pm
While many people have been asking if eBay sold items can be automatically added to the value estimates, this was and is challenging for many reasons, including non-descriptive conditions, wrong names, wrong categories, etc. At the same time eBay has its own identificator for many items, and those identificators can be aligned with existing CollectiBlend models.
eBay don't have too many of those identificators (definitely less than number of cameras presented here), but whatever it has, have already been aligned to CollectiBlend records, and site is getting an automated feed for the sale records. There are about 2000 film cameras, and around 4000 digital cameras being tracked, and new cameras are still being added/aligned to CB now.
Also now you can see new charts for most popular cameras, which shows recent eBay sale results.
Here is an example of final result for film cameras:

as well as for digital ones:
http://collectiblend.com/Cameras/Nikon/D300S.html
eBay sales are automatically converted according to the seller's specified condition, averaged over a month, with outliers taken out, and added to the list of sales in the form of "EB 2018-06-01 B".
Items with and without lens are tracked separately, so you get two charts for those.
This feature helps tremendously to keep estimate values up to date, especially for the more popular less expensive cameras which aren't sold on hammer auctions usually.
