New-listing alerts Free + Pro
The core of uBuyFirst: the moment an item matching your criteria is listed, you get an alert — typically within seconds — through eBay’s official API.
→ How it worksReal-time alerts on new listings, price drops, and restocks — filtered to your exact criteria and delivered the second they go live. Built on eBay’s official developer API, not a scraper. Free web app for any buyer; Desktop suite for pros who need always-on scanning and in-app purchasing.
Other buyers aren’t faster than you — they’re running automation. While you reload the search page, their tool already saw the listing, ran it through their criteria, and clicked Buy It Now.
The same listings, the same speed the pros move at — filtered to your rules and delivered where you work, with zero risk to your eBay account.
Whatever you’re tracking — new listings, price drops, or restocks — uBuyFirst turns it into a real-time alert tuned to your exact criteria, then delivers it the second it triggers.
The core of uBuyFirst: the moment an item matching your criteria is listed, you get an alert — typically within seconds — through eBay’s official API.
→ How it worksTrack the items you’re watching and get notified the moment the price falls, so you can move when a listing finally hits the number you’ll buy at.
→ How it workseBay’s native alerts and most third-party tools miss restock and quantity-update events. uBuyFirst tracks these gaps, so restocked items don’t quietly disappear to someone else.
→ See the differenceTurn your saved eBay searches — or new ones you build in uBuyFirst — into standing alerts. Set the criteria once and reuse it across everything.
→ How it worksWeb app: email, Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp, and Discord — delivered whether or not your browser is open. Desktop: tray pop-up, sound alert, and push to Telegram or Pushbullet, always-on.
→ Free vs ProWatching an auction? Get notified when it’s ending soon or when its listing changes, so a deadline never slips past you.
→ Pro Desktop AppWhether you’re a hobbyist tracking one category, a parts buyer sourcing at volume, or a distributor running dozens of searches, there’s a tier built for how you buy.
Pick categories, keywords, price ranges, seller filters, and condition rules. Reuse your existing eBay saved searches or build new ones.
Desktop pop-up or push to mobile via Telegram or Pushbullet (Desktop); or email, Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp, or Discord via the web app (Free). Set delivery per search.
uBuyFirst polls eBay’s official API at the interval you control. New matching listings reach you in seconds.
For Buy It Now, go straight to checkout (Desktop). Or open the listing directly from your alert on any device (Free + Desktop).
eBay’s own alerts are fine for casual shopping. For business buyers running repeat searches, they’re too slow, too basic, and too hard to manage at scale. Here’s what changes when your alerts run on uBuyFirst.
| eBay’s built-in alerts | uBuyFirst alerts | |
|---|---|---|
| Speed | Email alerts aren’t always timely | ✓ Real-time — matches reach you within seconds via eBay’s official API |
| Filtering | Basic search terms only | ✓ Deep, stackable filters: keyword, model number, price, condition, seller, feedback, and more |
| Managing many searches | Tedious to edit; no bulk management | ✓ Run and group multiple saved searches at once |
| What triggers an alert | New listings and basic watch notices | ✓ New listings, price drops, restocks, relists, and auction-ending alerts |
| Delivery | Mostly email | ✓ Web app: email, Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp, Discord · Desktop: tray pop-up + Telegram/Pushbullet |
| Acting on a match | Click through to the listing, then buy | ✓ One-click Buy It Now, Best Offer, or Commit to Buy in-app |
| API & account safety | Native — no risk | ✓ Built on eBay’s current official API — account-safe, rate-limited, and won’t break when eBay changes things |
| Total price with shipping | Price shown, shipping separate | ✓ Every result shows the landed cost: item + cheapest shipping to your ZIP |
I used to lose the good listings before my search even reloaded. Now uBuyFirst pings me within seconds, and I’m at checkout in one click. It’s paid for itself many times over.
We source parts at volume, so noise was killing us. The stackable filters mean my team only sees listings that actually match our criteria, and seeing total cost with shipping to our ZIP before we buy has tightened our margins considerably.
What sold me was that it runs on eBay’s official API instead of some sketchy scraper, so I’m not risking my account. It’s been rock-solid for monitoring Motors listings across multiple sites, and the mobile push to Telegram means I never miss one even when I’m away from my desk.
eBay push notifications are alerts sent to your phone or browser when something happens on your account (like watched items, outbids, or sold listings). They run on eBay’s own timing, which can lag behind real-time listing activity.
Save a search on eBay and turn on email alerts, or follow a seller. Native alerts are batched and often delayed, so dedicated tools like uBuyFirst poll eBay’s API and notify you within seconds of a listing going live.
Go to your eBay account’s notification preferences and toggle on email and mobile alerts for the activity you want. For faster, filtered alerts on new listings, our eBay alerts tool delivers them to your desktop and mobile in real time.
Run a search on eBay, click “Save this search,” and enable email notifications. To layer deeper filters (price, condition, seller, feedback) and get instant alerts, you can reuse those same saved searches inside uBuyFirst.
Set your keywords and filters (model, price, condition, seller) and uBuyFirst alerts you within seconds of any matching listing going live. Via the free uBuyAssist web app, alerts reach you on email, Slack, Telegram, WhatsApp, or Discord. On the desktop app, matches are pushed to your desktop tray or to mobile via Telegram or Pushbullet.
New matching listings reach you within seconds of going live. uBuyFirst continuously polls eBay’s official API at the interval you set, so you see deals before manual searchers even reload.
