A new mobile service helps eBay buyers win auctions. It is estimated that approximatly 50 percent of buyers lose the auction because they are away from the computer at the time when the auction ends.

Unwired Buyer, Inc. offers a free notification service for eBay buyers. The service can be configured to call a buyer’s cell phone 3 minutes before the auction is completed. When the user recieves the phone call he/she can place a bid directly from the phone.

Unwired Buyer’s service can be configured to notify a buyer by:

• Text Message – 8 minutes
• Phone Call – 3 minutes
• Email – 20 minutes

The service also is available on other mobile devices like PDAs as well as landline telephones.

The service drives additional bidding hype in the last minutes of an auction, increasing the sale price for the seller.

The service is totally free to eBay buyers, Unwired Buyer, Inc gets paid by eBay through its Affiliate Program. Sounds like an all around win.
