eBay doesn’t need any more introduction, does it? Anyone with a computer hooked up to the Internet recognizes the brand and knows what eBay stands for. So I’ll get right to the point as I am sure you’ll be glad to hear the news I’m about to give you.

The giant auction site has announced a new application for iPhones and iPod touches. “Deals” is the name of the application in question and once installed on your iPhone will let you buy and sell stuff on eBay and follow some of the best deals available at the moment. eBay has released the app just in time for its upcoming “12 Days of Deals” promotion so get ready for a lot of deals coming your way soon.

“Deals” is now available to download from iTunes, and, naturally, it comes free of charge. The app comes with features like “simple, intuitive navigation, customizable search features and PayPal integration.” That means you can now purchase stuff from eBay straight from your iPhone or iPod touch. All you need is a PayPal account filled with cash and an Internet connection in order to be able to buy some of the products currently listed on eBay.

Here’s what Lorrie Norrington, eBay Marketplaces President, had to say about the new iPhone app:

As the world’s leading online marketplace we have insights into how people really want to shop … and they clearly want to shop on their phones. It’s apparent that consumers want to shop for what they want, when they want and WHERE they want, and that’s not necessarily when they’re sitting in front of a computer or even walking through a store. This eBay app for the iPhone is the ultimate tool to put great value and selection at their fingertips on the go, wherever they are.

eBay’s “12 Days of Deals” start on November 27 and you’ll be able to follow them straight on your iPhone or iPod touch. What do you say, folks? Have you downloaded “Deals” already?
