Field notes
The described workflow keeps a connection between each result and its location in the source image, then lets users search across scans. Item details include formats and edition information; tracking features are presented for purchase cost, listings, sales, and monthly profit. The site cautions that its eBay-based value estimates cannot account for an item's condition, fees, or postage.
