# Snipe
|
||
|
||
**eBay trust scoring before you bid.**
|
||
|
||
{ .only-light }
|
||
{ .only-dark }
|
||
|
||
Snipe scores eBay listings and sellers for trustworthiness before you place a bid. Paste a search query, get results with trust scores, and know exactly which listings are worth your time.
|
||
|
||
## What it catches
|
||
|
||
- **New accounts** selling high-value items with no track record
|
||
- **Suspicious prices** — listings priced far below completed sales
|
||
- **Duplicate photos** — images copy-pasted from other listings (perceptual hash deduplication)
|
||
- **Damage buried in titles** — scratch, dent, untested, for parts, and similar
|
||
- **Known bad actors** — sellers on the community blocklist
|
||
|
||
## How it works
|
||
|
||
{ .only-light }
|
||
{ .only-dark }
|
||
|
||
Each listing gets a composite trust score from 0–100 based on five seller signals: account age, feedback count, feedback ratio, price vs. market, and category history. Red flags are surfaced alongside the score, not buried in it.
|
||
|
||
## Free, no account required
|
||
|
||
Search and scoring work without creating an account. Community features (reporting sellers, importing blocklists) require a free account.
