eBay auctions were added to home page?? HOW ??

I just happened to stumble upon this site

http://got-jdm.com/?zencart

when I was looking for other info on google adsense and I love the eBay info box at the top that shows what they currently have selling on ebay. Is this a contribution? I'm trying to find it, but not having much luck.
I really hate to email someone thru their site and ask since any emails we get we always hope to be sale related :D.
Can someone tell me if this IS a contribution or was it something special this person did on their site.
Thanks so much and Happy Holidays ~

I think what they did was use the "Blank Sidebox" and simply copy the code from the ebay affiliate site into the sidebox. You can set it up so that it only shows your auctions from your store.

What's your ebay store? Mine is http://stores.ebay.com/bird-oasis/.

Ohh, wait a minute. They put the ebay affiliate code in the header. That's a neat idea.

The cool thing about using the ebay affiliate code is you not only get the money from selling your stuff on ebay, but you also get an affiliate reward. haha.

Is that what they did???!!!??? I never even thought of that!:blush:
I figured it had to be a contribution of some sort, but I sure like the idea.

My store is http://stores.ebay.com/LilleyPadGifts

Maybe you can help me out with my other post as well about the google adsense.... http://www.zen-cart.com/forum/showthread.php?t=81486

I hear that can bring in a bit of cash as well, anything to help off set those eBay fees! :D

Thanks so much ~

I also just noticed that they aren't all his items...but hey, every penny counts now days! :-)
So if I sign up for the program, I would need to put the code into my header area...can someone get me started? I know it will all come back to me if I can just get pointed in the right direction (it sucks getting old!).

Thanks again ~
