Historical background

Shopping.com started as Papricom (DealTime.com). DealTime.com was founded in 1998 by Dr. Nahum Sharfman and Amir Ashkenazi. The site’s original business model was to build a downloadable client that monitored the price of products a user wanted to buy over time and notified the user when the price reached a predetermined level (hence the site’s original name, DealTime).

In April 2003, under the leadership of its CEO Daniel T. Ciporin, DealTime acquired Epinions.com, a California-based consumer product review website. In September 2013, the combined website was renamed Shopping.com.

Shopping.com went public in October 2004 and was acquired by eBay in 2005 for $21 per share in cash, with a total value of approximately $634 million. It is currently a semi-autonomous department within eBay and still operates the www.shopping.com website independently.
