Hello, Thank you for writing regarding the recent email you received with the subject line, "Help us evaluate eBay and receive $50 and an eBay pen for your efforts." Please be assured that this survey is endorsed by eBay and is completely legitimate. NetRaker Corporation will be conducting the study on eBay's behalf. This is why the URLs in the email are NetRaker and not eBay URLs. The study involves completing 8 tasks on the eBay web site, and answering questions about your experiences. The estimated time to complete the study is between 45 and 120 minutes. In appreciation for your time and input, you will receive $50 and an eBay pen following completion of the study. As part of the study, you will be asked to purchase two items on eBay, and to sell an eBay pen (two pens will be sent to you; one to keep, and one to sell on eBay). Since buying and selling will take place on the live eBay Web site, you must be prepared to register on the site if not already registered (you would be prompted to register during the study at the appropriate time), and to be prepared to enter your eBay User Id and password, credit card information, and banking information on the site. Individual responses will be used for research purposes only and will remain strictly confidential. If you have any further concerns about the validity of the survey, please email [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thank you for being part of the eBay community. Regards, Kelly B.

The study involves completing 8 tasks on the eBay web site, including buying and selling tasks, and answering questions about your experiences as you go along. The estimated time to complete the study is between 45 and 120 minutes. In appreciation for your time and input, $50 and 2 eBay pens will be sent to you within ten business days of completing the study. During the study, you will be asked to purchase 2 items on eBay, and to list an eBay pen for auction, even if you have never sold anything on eBay before. Again, the pens will be sent to you within ten business days of completing the study. One is to ship to the winning eBay bidder if the pen successfully sold, and the other is for you to keep. Since buying, paying, and selling will take place on the live eBay Web site during the study, you should be prepared to use your eBay userid and password to log into the site when prompted. If you have never sold items on eBay, you will also be required to enter your credit card and bank account information in order to list the eBay pen for sale. It will be useful to have a check handy while completing the study, since the bank check routing number will be required when listing an item for the first time. Individual responses will be used for research purposes only and will remain strictly confidential. The information you provide will be used in accordance with the eBay Privacy Policy, which can be found at the following URL: http://pages.ebay.com/help/community/png-priv.html.
