I have had no problems so far and used it for a long time.
If terapeak shares ip with eb we will find out real soon, but so far no issues.
Another tip for me is I keep a laptop running on my main eb account and if I need to research anything I get on that laptop, research the info and go back to the other laptop with the Ip checked etc and use the information from laptop 1.

I assume most of the time when you are using Terapeak on your iPhone (garage and estate sales, auctions, etc.) you are using 3G and not your home wireless network.
I currently have one computer (Apple Mac Mini desktop) so I cannot research like you do with two laptops. I may need to get another computer/laptop ~ that is after I start making some money via my new stealth eB accounts! Money has been tight since eB shut me down. My booth is less than two months old and I'm still learning the antique mall booth ropes.

Just a rule I have so I do not ever take the chance with the IP because I use the phone to tether different IPs and do not want to make that mistake.
An terapeak shows you the info without even going to ebay. The item, what it sold for, pictures etc all show up for you.

I just purchased it today. Bought the $24.95 version. Only used it for about 10 minutes. I can see that it has a lot of potential after using it for a while and actually learning HOW to use it. As of right now i don't really know much on how to use it, only been using it for 10 minutes. If i dont gain any progress on learning how to use it in the next month im probably going to cancel my subscription.

I just signed up for it after reading this post the other day.
Sofar I just have realized my competitors are making much more than me.
I need to pick it up.
I also think it sucks that you cannot see any auction text or photos past 90days.
Does anyone know of a way to do this? I recently obtained some stock like I had 4-5 months ago and dont want to mess with writing all new text for them. I would like to go and use the text I had on the auctions back then.
I remember vendio used to hold the info longer but havent used them in 8 years now.
At this time I dont see much use for it when selling in a specific niche. The cost just isnt there for me.
It would be awesome if I were just out buying random stuff and wanted to look it up.
I feel the regular ended search is fine for me. atleast until I learn more about the terapeak deal.

I use the save seller a ton so I can keep an eye on certain sellers.
I also like looking at the very successful sellers info such as when they list, when they end, the price they start at etc.
For individual items I use it all the time. Every single day really.
I just used it to buy something on craigslist to resell on ebay. That one purchase will be more then the 24.00 I paid for the entire month of usage.

You are probably correct that if you have a constant stock of things it will help you learn what the other sellers are doing. Like you stated you found that the other sellers are making more money therefore the increased money will pay for itself.
You can also drop down to the 10.00 a month and just watch their changes or adjustments to your pricing, marketing etc.
I also like the avg price information, the sell through rates etc it gives me.

The only thing i would see this useful is for just watching when items sell the best and when to list ect. Other than that its more useful for people who sell a big variety of items.

Do not use a stealth account info.
I use my real name and a non eb and pp with terapeak.
The thing you have to watch is to not log into ebay through terapeak.
I use it all the time for yard sales, thrift stores, goodwill, auctions etc.

There just needs to be a search somewhere that shows photos and text for the auctions that sold over 90 days ago. Thats all I need.

I cannot remember if it gets the photos and text after 90 days though.
Will try and see what I get and let you know.

You are correct. I look at the current and back a month for my type of items so it might not be good for you if you want to go back further.
Guess you could always use it for current sales/competitors and go back to their feedback and click on the item no. and get some info.

Activity: 0% Longevity: 81% | | I switched to Hammer Tap
I use to use Terapeak but recently found a version of Hammer Tap (for free) which does everthing Terapeak does. I know $24 is a small investment but it adds up
Anyway, if you google hammer tap (cracked version) and figure how to install it, you'll have a very powerful but free software.
