WINEBID.COM® AND CELLARTRACKER!™ ANNOUNCE AUTOMATIC CELLAR VALUATION
Napa California: WineBid.com, the premier Internet auction of fine and rare wines, is pleased to announce a new
product developed with CellarTracker.com, an online cellar management site that provides automated wine valuations for
their combined customers
"We are very pleased to be working with CellarTracker and think this initial product is a convenient tool for
anyone interested in keeping track of their wines' current market value," said Jerry Zech, WineBid.com's Chief
Executive Officer.
"This is a heavily requested feature that we are very pleased to bring to our customers," added Eric LeVine,
Founder and Principal of CellarTracker. "By automatically tracking the current value of their collection,
collectors can ensure they have proper insurance or can balance their collections more effectively."
Based on WineBid.com's Auction Trends™ software and CellarTracker's own internally developed software,
the product automatically updates auction prices for wines stored on CellarTrackers' cellar management site.
Collectors can easily see the value of their cellars summarized by country, region, producer or in dozens of
others ways. The feature is available to CellarTracker customers who are also WineBid.com customers.
