While eBay might have started out as a place for people to auction off items, the website has evolved over the years where it now also acts as a storefront for various companies looking to sell products directly to consumers. Of course this also means that they are now competing with the likes of other online retailers, such as Amazon.
This is why it doesn’t come as a surprise to learn that eBay is stepping up their efforts by launching a new Price Match Guarantee feature. As the name suggests, this means that eBay will now attempt to price match certain items that are being sold on its competitors’ websites. However note that not every item sold on eBay will be price matched, but rather those that are sold on the website’s trending inventor section Deals.
There are also some caveats, such as how these products need to be new and identical to what’s being sold, and the item also needs to be in stock on both eBay and the competitor’s stores at the time of purchase. Also not every competitor will be covered, but for the most part the bigger ones are, such as Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart, Jet.com, Home Depot, Sears, Target, and Wayfair.
According to Hal Lawton, Senior Vice President of North America at eBay, “Shoppers can shop with confidence knowing that they’re getting the best value available on eBay. Our eBay Deals selection has grown exponentially since being launched in 2011. The vast majority of our deals are already lower priced or equal to our competitors, but if a shopper finds it for less, we’ll gladly match the price of our competitors.”
