eBay now has an easier way to buy online but be able to pick up in the store instead of having to wait for delivery. Users can seach for prices on various items by entering the name of the product or scanning the barcode. Instead of just showing the price of the item at different onling reatailers like before, you can now see what local retailers have the product available and but it through an app. However, you can still make your purchase through PayPal, and eBay still makes a profit from your purchase. When you go to the store to pick up your item it will be waiting at a special window for you. Not many stores are onboard with this new idea yet but eBay is hoping they will be soon. This is one of eBays new ideas to try and be more mobile friendly. I'm not sure I would ever use this though. I guess it is a more secure puchase because you'e actually picking it up from a store and not buying from random retailors online.
