Fact 1: 55% of eBay transactions are touched by mobile Fact 2: 99% of eBay listings are NOT mobile friendly

Scott Schenkel (eBay Chief financial officer): “…at this point, the total eBay mobile volume is 44%, and the percent of GMV (Gross merchandise volume) touched by mobile is 55%. So this is obviously a larger and larger channel for us.”
