Photo Coverage: Mario Cantone Hosts eBay's 'LET'S MAKE A DAILY DEAL'

"Shoppers can find what they're looking for every day with the unmatched inventory and variety of sellers on eBay," said Lorrie Norrington, president, eBay Marketplaces. "With ‘Let's Make a Daily Deal' we're shining a spotlight on our fixed-price options including "eBay Daily Deal" and "Buy It Now" - more ways for shoppers to save instantly on items they want."

In addition to auction-style listings on eBay, features such as eBay Daily Deal and fixed-price items make it easier than ever for shoppers to find savings instantly. The recently introduced eBay Daily Deal offers customers deep discounts - and free shipping - on must-have items from eBay sellers, but only while supplies last. Recent eBay Daily Deals have included: an XBOX Live subscription, a Sony Vaio laptop, and an APC SurgeArrest, for 20 to 90 percent less than the suggested retail price.

Cantone will again host "Let's Make a Daily Deal!" on June 24th from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. in Times Square Studios (44th Street and Broadway). eBay is taking over Times Square with digital billboard advertising and street teams who will recruit players for the "Let's Make a Daily Deal" game. The digital billboards will feature a live, mobile text-based game engaging Times Square crowds who can play along for a chance to win great prizes.

Shoppers can also play "Let's Make a Daily Deal" online at ebay.com/dailydealgame and enter the sweepstakes for a chance to win $25,000 worth of prizes. eBay fans can access information about the event through targeted media across Facebook, DailyCandy, Thrillist and Meetup.

"As an avid shopper, I'm amazed by the variety of items and great deals you can find on eBay," said Cantone. "During ‘Let's Make a Daily Deal!' we're going to find out just how savvy shoppers are." Audience members will be welcomed on a first-come, first-served basis, receive an eBay gift card and be eligible to compete in fun price-guessing games.
