  "Better than ebay toolbar & other ebay extensions, the Best ebay tool Ive used!"

  January 5, 2008  |   By nicole3bay

  Version: eBay Buddy 0.3

  Pros

  * eBay Buddy lets you navigate to any area on the auction site very quickly.

  * Sensible option placement within sub-menus makes it very easy to find what you are looking for.

  * Direct links to USPS, FedEx, and UPS shipping and tracking tools are provided.

  * Competitor links allow you to compare item pricing with other sites.

  * This extension may help you discover features and sections that you were not previously aware of.

  * eBayBuddy adds a menu with hundreds of relevant options to Firefox's right-click context menu.

  * eBay Buddy's menu can also be added to your Firefox toolbar section by customizing or creating your own toolbar.

  * The Search sub-menu lets you search items by criteria such as Item Number, Bidder/Seller ID, as well as by title/description.

  * The Search sub-menu also lets you find a store, member, or Trade Assistant as well as search through Groups and Blogs.

  * Practically every category on eBay is available as a menu choice via the Browse Categories sub-menu.

  * Dozens of menu links to eBay Discussion Boards are provided, broken down by categories and tool types (i.e., File Exchange).

  * The eBay Site Map sub-menu lets you navigate the entire site via five main categories: Buy, Sell, My eBay, Community & Help.

  * The Other Tools sub-menu provides links to eBay tasks such as changing your password and filing a dispute.

  * Menu options give you the ability to navigate the various sections of My eBay directly.

  * Links to eBay's important rules and policies are provided as well as search functions for all eBay International sites.

  Things become a bit overwhelming when you're searching ebay for a specific category or feature. This is where eBay Buddy really shines. They key word here is organization, and eBayBuddy does a fantastic job. Not only that but it also provides very useful tools from HTML editors to shipping calculators. Its presence is barely known so there's not a negative side to making eBay Buddy your buddy! highly recommended!

  Cons

  * None! Well, maybe one tiny thing, Menu items may not display correctly when using darker themes within Firefox but I don't use a dark theme so it's not a problem for me. I contacted the author and she told me she is working that.
