This excerpt taken from the EBAY 10-K filed Feb 28, 2007. Marketplaces
Platforms
Our Marketplaces platforms are fully automated, topically
arranged, and
easy-to-use
online services that seek to provide availability 24 hours
a day, seven days a week, enabling sellers to list items for
sale and buyers to bid for and purchase items of interest, and
all users to browse through listed items from any place in the
world at any time. The platforms include software tools and
services, available either for no charge or for a fee, that
allow buyers and sellers to trade with one another more easily
and efficiently. The Marketplaces platforms consist of our core
online commerce platform, eBay.com, and adjacent platforms
consisting of Shopping.com, our classifieds websites and
Rent.com. Marketplaces earns revenue from listing, feature and
final value fees paid by sellers, lead referral fees and
advertising fees.
