Let Claude search eBay listings with price, bids and shipping
To let Claude search eBay listings, install Wield and describe the item, your price limit and the format you want. For example: "Search eBay.de for a used iPhone 13 128 GB under 400 euros, Buy It Now only, and show shipping cost." Claude runs the ebay.de/search-listings recipe in your own browser. It returns listings with price, bids, shipping and seller. No login is needed.

Ask your agent
Give the search words, and add any price limit, condition, format or shipping wish. Claude calls find_recipe to find the recipe, then run with the parameters.
You: Search eBay.de for a used iPhone 13 128 GB under 400 euros, Buy It Now only, and show shipping cost.
Claude then runs ebay.de/search-listings with query, max_price, condition and format, and reads the shipping cost from each listing.

What comes back
The result has query, total, page and listings. The total is eBay's count. eBay shows it as "9.200+", so it is a lower bound.
Each listing shows the title, the current price or price range, the Buy It Now price, bids and time left for auctions, a best-offer flag, the shipping cost and pickup-only status. It also shows the condition, whether the seller is private or business, the seller rating, an image and the link.
What leaves your computer
The recipe makes 1 request to www.ebay.de. It goes out from an eBay tab in your browser, with your own session. Nothing passes through wield.run. eBay answers server requests with 403, so the recipe runs only in your browser.
Limits and terms
- eBay.de's robots.txt disallows AI crawlers (ClaudeBot, anthropic-ai), and eBay's user agreement restricts automated access and scraping without permission. Wield runs this recipe only when you ask, from your own browser, one search page per call: no bulk collection, no bidding and no buying.
- Promoted listings, marked "Anzeige", are dropped by default.
- Status on 7 Nov 2026 is "ok (browser only)". A check for iphone 13 128gb, used, up to 400 euros returned 60 listing cards in 1.4 s.
- We have no benchmark run for this recipe yet, so this page makes no speed claim.
