The number of eBay stores, where merchants sell items at fixed prices through eBay, rose to 632,000 from 486,000 a year ago. But store inventory listings were down 6.5% to 79.1 million, continuing a downward trend that began when eBay raised listing fees last August. Non-store listings totaled 509.3 million, up nearly 4% from 490.8 million in the first quarter of 2006. Fixed-price sales represented 39% of sales volume, up from 34% a year ago.

EBay reported revenue of $1.77 billion in the first quarter, up 27% from $1.39 billion in the first three months of 2006. Net income increased 52% to $377 million. “This first quarter of 2007 was a very strong one for the company,” says Meg Whitman, eBay president and CEO.
