Manually checking competitor listings every day takes time — and it's easy to miss an important price change.
We'll set up a custom eBay competitor monitoring script that automatically checks selected public listings and tracks changes in price and availability.
When something changes, the system can log the event and send you a notification so you can decide whether you need to react.
Typical Setup: Within 3 Days
Custom Monitoring Script
One-Time Development Service
You choose the competitor listings you want to follow.
Depending on the available listing data, the script can monitor:
The script checks the selected listings automatically at a configured interval.
If a competitor changes their price, you don't have to discover it manually.
For example:
Competitor price: $89.99 → $79.99
The system detects the change, records it and can trigger a notification.
You can then review the situation and decide whether to:
Adjust your price → Keep your current price → Change your offer → Take no action
The system provides the information. You remain in control of your pricing decisions.
Price isn't the only useful signal.
Depending on what information is publicly available on the listing, the script can also detect changes such as:
In Stock → Out of Stock
Available → Listing Ended
Quantity Change → Where Available
This can help you understand when competing products become unavailable or return to stock.
Depending on your preferred setup and available integrations, alerts can be configured through supported channels such as:
We'll configure the notification method agreed upon before development.
This isn't a generic market report.
You provide the public eBay listings or sellers relevant to your business, and we configure the monitoring around them.
You can define:
The final configuration depends on the scope agreed for your order and what data eBay makes publicly accessible.

The script does not automatically change your eBay prices.
It monitors selected public information and gives you data you can use when making your own pricing decisions.
This is intentional.
You stay in control of what happens to your listings.
To keep the scope clear, this service does not include:
