AI eBay Listing Software: Photo or URL In, Listing Out
How a photo becomes a complete listing, and what a sold-comp median is really worth — a real Antminer S19 query moves from $69 to $290 once the air conditioners and earbuds are filtered out.
Guides
Everything we've published, by topic
ING Listing Engine is a free Windows app that turns a photo or a product link into a finished eBay listing and prices it against real sold comps. These are the guides behind it — 33 of them — written by Nick Squires from listings he actually runs on eBay and from a 864,000-row sold-listing database. Where a competitor is genuinely better, the guide says so.
AI Listing 7 guides
How a photo or a product link turns into a finished eBay listing — title, item specifics, condition, price — and the things a picture can never tell you.
AI eBay Listing From a Photo: What It Reads, What It Can't
The six things a photo can never tell you — power-on, internal specs, battery health, firmware, hours, completeness — and how to shoot a spec plate so identification works first time.
AI Listing Software Cost: What You Actually Pay in 2026
Vendoo, List Perfectly, Crosslist, SixBit and ZIK priced on 29 July 2026, then divided by listings: $0.03 to $1.50 each. Bring-your-own-key runs a flat ceiling of $0.25 a listing and loses above about 60 a month.
Why Is My eBay Listing Not Showing in Search? (2026)
Two different problems share one name. Seven mechanical causes you can rule out in a minute — then 37 sold PowerFlex comps, every single one of which puts the part number in the title.
eBay Listing Optimization: Fixing What's Already Live
A real read-only scan of 89 live listings in two seconds: 8 flagged, 2 policies, and a category card that refuses to answer. The whole title rule set is published — including the rule that eats the word Laptop.
End an eBay Listing Without Selling It (or Edit It)
eBay's own end-early and revision rules, read off its help pages on the day this shipped: the one auction state that locks you in, the final value fee you can pay on something you still own, and why a revision that says success is not proof the field changed.
eBay Turbo Lister Is Gone. What Replaced It
Turbo Lister stopped talking to eBay on 13 July 2020 and eBay never built another desktop lister — it promised one and didn't. What Seller Hub Reports actually does, what SixBit costs, and where Blackthorne and Selling Manager went.
Pricing & Profit 7 guides
What to charge, what you can afford to pay, and the fee arithmetic that decides both. Every number here is worked, not asserted.
eBay Repricing Software That Never Prices Below Cost
The first scan of our own account found $260,218 sitting in stale listings — and one 138-day listing the discount ladder wanted to cut by $8,400 that had already sold 44 units.
eBay Auction Sniping: How to Set Your Maximum Bid
Sniping fixes the timing, not the price. Three live listings of the same miner came back with ceilings of $97.03, $57.03 and $31.85 — and a fourth came back $0, because shipping exceeded resale.
Whatnot Fees for Buyers: What a Lot Really Costs
A lot costs the hammer price plus the buyer fee, the shipping and the tax — and the premium has to be divided out of your maximum bid, not subtracted from it. No fee percentage is quoted, because none can be verified.
eBay Send Offers to Watchers: How Much to Discount
The one eBay discount that costs nothing when it is refused. 53 of our listings had 1,527 watchers between them; eBay cleared 31 to carry an offer. Plus the floor arithmetic everyone gets wrong.
Resale Value Scanner: Buy or Pass From a Photo or Link
A photo or a pasted link, and one word back — with the most you can pay and still clear your margin. Including the two answers it gives when it genuinely does not know.
eBay Store Subscription: Does It Pay for Itself? (2026)
A Basic Store starts paying for itself at 313 live listings, and the Starter Store is never the cheapest tier at any count — the window where it would win runs backwards. Plus the fee discount our own board leaves out.
Are eBay Promoted Listings Worth It? Do the Arithmetic
The ad rate is charged on the whole sale, postage included, on every sale eBay attributes to the ad — including the ones you were already getting. The break-even lift formula, and the rate above which the fee is bigger than the profit.
Research & Comparisons 7 guides
Where sold prices come from, how dirty that data really is, and honest scoring against the tools we compete with.
Best Terapeak Alternatives (And When Terapeak Wins)
Four live queries against our own 864,000-row sold database. A search for a Dell PowerEdge R740 returned 30,289 “matches” and not one actual server — which is why keyword-matched averages mislead you.
Vendoo Alternative: An Honest Feature-by-Feature Look
Vendoo wins five rows of the comparison table outright, and the page says so above the fold. Also: the fee rate our own app has been getting wrong since February 2025.
List Perfectly Alternative: Where It Wins, Where We Do
We asked our own 864,000-row sold database what List Perfectly's categories are worth. It returned 448 Lululemon records and not one pair of leggings. Plus their real 2026 prices and the feature Pro Plus gates.
ZIK Analytics Alternative: The 30-Day Window Problem
Every research tool reports demand over a recent window. We counted the real sales inside one: 139 in 30 days for an AirPods Pro, and exactly one for the FANUC pendant on our own shelf.
Crosslist Alternative: The Universal-Form Problem on eBay
Crosslist posts to eleven marketplaces from one universal form. Their own eBay FAQ prices the translation: business policies picked by the alphabet, specifics errors after the fact. Our editor only ever had to speak eBay.
How to See Sold Items on eBay (2026): The 90-Day Wall
eBay now sends a signed-out browser to a login page for any sold search — measured on the day, against a control. Then the part nobody measures: 24.9% of the sold rows we hold are already outside the 90-day window.
eBay Sold Listings Data: 897,135 Real Sales
897,135 completed sales published as tables and a CC BY 4.0 CSV rather than as claims. 8.7% sold at auction, a quarter of those auctions closed on a single bid, and 67.3% of sellers never touched the price again.
Reselling Hardware 5 guides
Miners, servers, laptops and industrial gear — written from listings this seller actually runs, not from a category page.
Selling Bitcoin Miners on eBay Without Losing Money
Twenty-two completed sales of one byte-identical listing title, from $175.50 to $455.00 — same model, same stated condition. What decides where in that band you land.
ASIC Miner Price Per Terahash: Why $/TH Fails
$/TH is the number every miner forum quotes and it does not survive contact with the sold data. What actually predicts the price instead.
Selling ASIC Miners in Lots: The Per-Unit and Fee Math
Four sold Antminer S19 lots put a machine at $129.00 to $143.33 against a $150.00 single median. Consolidating eight into one listing saves $2.80 in eBay fees — and the $7,500 threshold nobody's lot reaches.
How to Ship Heavy Equipment: Miners, Servers, Drives
A packed Antminer S19 weighs 35.3 lb and the median seller charges $50 to move it — from 171 single-machine comps. Plus the $73.44 that free shipping costs on an $85 freight bill, and the 3% heavy-equipment category most sellers never find.
ASIC Miner Firmware and Resale Value: VNish, Braiins, LuxOS
One seller sold the same boosted S19 eleven times — VNish in the title made no difference ($138.75 vs $149.99). Where firmware actually adds money, and what to disclose when you sell a flashed machine.
Inside the App 7 guides
What ING Listing Engine does today, what shipped this week, and the places it is beaten by something free.
How to Use ING Listing Engine: Setup to First Listing
The whole setup end to end: the two connections that are required, the two that are not, what a Claude key actually costs you, and the four things that trip people up.
eBay Listing Software Integrations: What Actually Connects
Every outside service the app touches, sorted by how much power it has over your account — one that writes, two optional sign-ins, five that need no account at all, and the five ways a connection breaks.
Opportunity Finder: What's Worth Listing Next
Roll the Dice, the Supplier File Analyzer and Local Deals — ranked by how fast the money comes back, not by how big the margin looks.
AI Quick Fill: One Box, a Complete Draft Listing
Paste a product name or a URL and get the whole listing back, including the pre-publish check that blocks a draft with a missing required specific.
Connected Store: Your Live eBay Listings, Locally
What connecting an eBay account actually pulls down, where it is stored, and what the app can and cannot change once it is connected.
What's New — the dated changelog
Every shipped change, dated, split honestly into what is in the current installer and what is only in source so far.
Stop Guessing eBay Prices: Sold Comps and the New Opportunity Finder
The release note that started this: sold-comp research moved into the listing flow, and the first look at Opportunity Finder.
ING Listing Engine is free for Windows during the public free — no subscription, no paywall, no card.
