Abstract

Systems and methods for automatic generation of new listings are provided. In example embodiments, time data is received that corresponds to a destination geolocation. An indication of a purchase of an item associated with the destination geolocation is received. A return time from the destination geolocation is determined based on the time data. A new listing is automatically generated for selling the item at a time determined from the return time.

Claims (43)

1. A computer system comprising:

one or more processors;

at least one memory storing instructions that, when implemented by the one or more processors, performs operations comprising:

receiving time data corresponding to a destination geolocation, wherein the time data comprises a time range that a user is scheduled to be in a vicinity of a destination geolocation;

receiving an indication that the user has purchased an item associated with the destination geolocation;

determining, based on GPS timing and location information of a user device associated with the user, that the user has traveled to the vicinity of the destination geolocation during the time range;

determining, based on the time data, a return time from the destination geolocation; and

based on the return time and the determination that the user has traveled to the vicinity of the destination geolocation, automatically generating a new listing for sale of the item, the new listing being generated to be published at a time determined from the return time.

2. The computer system of claim 1 , wherein the return time comprises a time when a user plans to leave a vicinity of the destination geolocation.

3. The computer system of claim 2 , wherein the time data is received from a user input on a user interface.

4. The computer system of claim 2 , wherein the time data comprises a date from an airline ticket.

5. The computer system of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise:

receiving a sale date from a user input on a user interface; and

publishing, to an online marketplace, the new listing on the sale date.

6. The computer system of claim 1 , wherein the item is an apparel item.

7. The computer system of claim 6 , wherein the operations further comprise determining that the apparel item was purchased for travel to the destination geolocation based on one or more selected from the following: travel data, one or more characteristics of the apparel item, and the destination geolocation.

8. The computing system of claim 1 , wherein the operations further comprise providing the new listing for display on a user interface of a user device.

9. The computing system of claim 1 , wherein the new listing comprises information obtained from a previous purchase listing associated with the item.

10. A computer-implemented method comprising:

receiving, at a processor, time data corresponding to a destination geolocation wherein the time data comprises a time range that a user is scheduled to be in a vicinity of a destination geolocation;

receiving, at the processor, an indication that the user has purchased an item associated with the destination geolocation;

determining, based on GPS timing and location information of a user device associated with the user, that the user has traveled to the vicinity of the destination geolocation during the time range;

determining, by the processor, based on the time data, a return time from the destination geolocation; and

based on the return time and the determination that the user has traveled to the vicinity of the destination geolocation, automatically generating, by the processor, a new listing for sale of the item, the new listing being generated to be published at a time determined from the return time.

11. The computer-implemented method of claim 10 , wherein the return time comprises a time when a user plans to leave a vicinity of the destination geolocation.

12. The computer-implemented method of claim 10 , wherein the time data is received from a user input on a user interface.

13. The computer-implemented method of claim 10 , wherein the time data comprises a date from an airline ticket.

14. The computer-implemented method of claim 10 , wherein the method further comprises:

receiving a sale date from a user input on a user interface; and

publishing, to an online marketplace, the new listing on the sale date.

15. The computer-implemented method of claim 10 , wherein the new listing comprises information obtained from a previous purchase listing associated with the item.

16. A non-transitory machine-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by at least one processor of a machine, causes the machine to perform operations comprising:

receiving time data corresponding to a destination geolocation, wherein the time data comprises a time range that a user is scheduled to be in a vicinity of a destination geolocation;

receiving an indication that the user has purchased an item associated with the destination geolocation;

determining, based on GPS timing and location information of a user device associated with the user, that the user has traveled to the vicinity of the destination geolocation during the time range;

determining based on the time data, a return time from the destination geolocation; and

based on the return time and the determination that the user has traveled to the vicinity of the destination geolocation, automatically generating a new listing for sale of the item, the new listing being generated to be published at a time determined from the return time.

17. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the return time comprises a time when the user plans to leave a vicinity of the destination geolocation.

18. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the operations further comprise determining, based on one or more of: the travel data, one or more characteristics of the item, and the destination geolocation, that the item was purchased for travel to the destination geolocation.

19. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the operations further comprise:

receiving a sale date from a user input on a user interface; and

publishing, to an online marketplace, the new listing on the sale date.

20. The non-transitory machine-readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the new listing comprises information obtained from a previous purchase listing associated with the item.
