Absolutely fantastic app!! Love it. Well done to the dev. Definitely deserves 5 stars. UPDATE: Been using this app for a while now and it's PERFECT. Cannot understand the low ratings if people are configuring it correctly. It works extremely well and has found me several bargains. For those saying they receive a notification only every 30 mins, adjust your 12 hr window for searches. I usually get results within 2 - 4 mins of an item being listed. Would support a premium version if there was one.

Great app except for the fact that searches don't update automatically aka when an item sells it will still be visible in the search results field. A workaround for this is to edit your search, select advanced options, and at the bottom toggle the "find items that ship to the united states" field, and hit submit. When you view the search results again everything should be refreshed and the sold/removed items will no longer show up. Just repeat the process any time you want to refresh your search results. Other than that though this app has been great!

In my effort to find used items in good condition on eBay, I typically go to the Condition filter and choose some conditions while excluding others. I leave "New" and "For parts or not working" unchecked, and I'll typically check "Open Box", "Seller refurbished", and "Used". The reason I do this is that "Open Box" and "Seller refurbished" often simply mean that the seller has taken very good care of the item while using it and has kept the retail box. I may or may not check "Certified Refurbished" and "Not specified" depending on how wide of a net I want to cast and whether I'd rather see some false positives or miss out on false negatives. On eFerret I see that I can filter on Condition, but as far as I can tell I have to choose only one. If I choose another condition, it replaces the first condition. That greatly reduces eFerret's usefulness in my view. I have to either choose "Used" and miss out on many hits I might be interested in, or leave them all unselected and get a lot of false positives. Surely this would be an easy fix for eFerret. I hope to see it soon.

Thanks for your efforts. Old match results history stay even after clicking on it, would be nice if we can delete items or they change colour. So it is clear which items are the new search results. Otherwise there is a lot of scrolling to do. Even with items marked as 3/week. Edit: it is now showing results of items from US and in dollars. Despite having GBP and UK selected :(

Disappointing. Doesn't let me search World Wide. No reason for the app. Don't waste your time. Uninstalled within a minute. You're better off with the eBay app, more options. The developer replied. Read it in the email, but I don't see the post. FYI, I checked the settings. Couldn't set to world wide. Yes I had advance set. Maybe the subscription version let's you, not the free version.
