unique services to help eBay shoppers search aggressively and bid securely.

Press Release Body: AuctionShadow.com announces today the pairing of two free and
unique services to help eBay shoppers search aggressively and bid securely.
AuctionShadow\'s \"ShadowSearch\" is an eBay search tool which uses other bidders\' eBay
IDs as search terms to improve results and be competitive. \"Security Services\" is a
suite of safety checks which look deeply into a seller\'s record to create a
comprehensive profile of the seller\'s eBay history.

In addition to searching eBay in the more traditional manner using keywords,
AuctionShadow collects eBay IDs to use in \"ShadowSearches.\" This allows
AuctionShadow users to \'shadow\' other eBay shoppers as they bid. Users of this
free service collect a few names of the eBay shoppers they bid against, enter them
into the AuctionShadow account they create, and watch for results. AuctionShadow
helps the user collect and organize eBay IDs to deliver search results tailored to
the user\'s auction tastes. Alert messages are emailed to the user whenever saved
ShadowSearches find results. Duplicate results are filtered out for efficient
viewing. The AuctionShadow search engine multiplies a single user\'s searches, into
the searches of many.

AuctionShadow\'s \"Security Services\" provide an added measure of confidence when
bidding on eBay with exclusive safety checks. For example, AuctionShadow goes
beyond finding the seller\'s feedback. It tells the user how diverse the feedback is
so the user will know how many unique buyers provided feedback to the seller.
AuctionShadow also warns the user if the seller changes the content of his listings
frequently, editing any of the details of his auctions in the middle of their run.
These are two examples of security checks performed by AuctionShadow which are not
offered on eBay, or anywhere else.

In addition to the ShadowSearch function, the more standard keyword search on
AuctionShadow allows the user to do all his searching from this one service.
Searches can be set to deliver auctions ending soon, and/or auctions with no bids.
The user may find these auctions to be a bargain. And the Typo/Misspell search
filter finds only auctions where the keywords are misspelled. An AuctionShadow
keyword search of Abercrombie & Fitch or Harley Davidson, with the Typo filter
enabled, produces interesting results. Many of the auctions found will have few
bids because they would not have been found with a typical keyword search on eBay.
This is a unique source for users looking to resell items on eBay.

Jason Brown, primary developer of the AuctionShadow application says, \"ShadowSearch
lets you create your personal army of eBay searchers, and they don't even know it.
This gives our users a competitive advantage. And the Security Services go beyond
eBay\'s feedback ranking, and make you more certain you are going to have a good
experience when you win an auction.\"

AuctionShadow uses published information available through eBay to produce its
ShadowSearch and Security Service results. AuctionShadow.com is a free service to
the user. AuctionShadow is an eBay Certified Developer and Affiliate.
AuctionShadow.com is a service of Abercrombie Online, LLC of Delaware, a privately
held company not associated with Abercrombie & Fitch or eBay. For additional
