eBay Auction Inquisitor

If you purchase and sell items regularly on eBay you surely had your share of auctions that did not go as well as intended. Most of the times it’s just items that are send with delay or money transfers that go wrong. Sometimes however you run into fraudulent content which can be easily recognized by experienced eBay users while beginners will have a hard time collecting the facts that lead to a conclusion.

The eBay Auction Inquisitor analyses auctions for the user. The user has to provide an auction id which is visible on every item page on eBay and the program will analyse the auction and the seller in 25 tests. This includes seller sale history, seller feedback, Return Policy, Payment and Feedback Tests.

A list with all tests is generated and presented to the user with a final analysis that displays passed, unclear and failed tests. What I really like about the software is that it is easy to use. The only user input that is required is the item id. The report is well structured and adds some well placed advise, for example it gives the advise to compare the previous sold items with the item currently on auction to make sure the seller did not sell inexpensive items and switched suddenly to cheap expensive ones.

Experienced sellers probably do not need the Auction Inquisitor but it is definitely a nice addition to new sellers, especially when it comes to buying expensive items on eBay. The tool is available for Windows and Mac OSX
