Tip of the month/ New info:
Saved Search is Here!
See below for a quick tutorial on the new saved search feature. This may seem small, but it's an exciting step in customizing the bidder experience and helping them find exactly what they are looking for. A future development step will be to integrate this with our bidder communications/reminders.
Buyers can now save up to 50 search terms and access them directly from their dashboard. You can view your saved searches and see exactly how many items match your keywords.

Saving a search is easy to do! Anytime you are accessing the search feature or advanced search feature found on the upper right hand corner of the website, you can click on the heart button to save that search keyword to your dashboard. Narrow your search by selecting by affiliate, price, or item category to get the exact results you are looking for.

Introducing the "Closed Lot Search/Appraiser Tool"
Found under the reports/tools tab on the affiliate dashboard, you now have access to this new tool to research historic items by keyword(s).
You can refine your search by keyword(s), date, affiliate, category and bid amount.
A graph with average prices and results will be provided:
As well as a list of results that includes sold price, date, and a hyperlink to view the individual items. 
Bonus: You can now search for keywords in the left hand corner search bar as well. Search using VIN, title, year or other keywords. This will be limited to your auctions and should provide an easier way to search quickly for previously sold (or active) items.
