=head1 NAME

WWW::Search::Ebay::BuyItNow - backend for searching eBay Buy-It-Now items

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use WWW::Search;
  my $oSearch = new WWW::Search('Ebay::BuyItNow');
  my $sQuery = WWW::Search::escape_query("jawa");
  $oSearch->native_query($sQuery);
  while (my $oResult = $oSearch->next_result())
    { print $oResult->url, "\n"; }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This class is a Ebay specialization of WWW::Search.
It handles making and interpreting Ebay searches
F<http://www.ebay.com>.

This class exports no public interface; all interaction should
be done through L<WWW::Search> objects.

=head1 NOTES

The search is done against eBay Buy-It-Now items only.

The query is applied to TITLES only.

In the resulting WWW::Search::Result objects, the description field
consists of a human-readable combination (joined with semicolon-space)
of the Item Number; number of bids; and high bid amount (or starting
bid amount).

=head1 SEE ALSO

To make new back-ends, see L<WWW::Search>.
