Does anyone know of a website or a FREE program that will notify me (by e-mail or sound effect) whenever anyone places a bid on any of my ebay items?

Thanks.

gBoy,

You can use Ebud. It works great, if you have a cable modem or DSL you can run the ticker tape and auto refresh as often as you like and that will notify you of your bids.

For those without a permenant {sp} connection you can manualy refresh (hit a button) and it will notify you of your new bids.

Great product... I wish they would include Yahoo and Amazon too!

Why not leave the My Ebay page on and refresh it whenever you want to know an updated status...

That's what I currently do Trey. It's just that a sound effect would be much more fun than hitting reload all the time.

Hey,

Anyone ever been to http://www.ebay.icq.com

You would think that they could set it up to if you had a bid, you would be icqed. That would be lots of fun.

...and you would get a sound gboy....

What does everyone think of this...

I use Honesty counters, and on the set preferences you can set refresh every (whatever you choose), gives you total summary of #of items (which helps me see if something goes by BIN way before I hear from e-bay), total # of hits, and total $$'s. It also helps to keep my ISP from popping off if I have to step away for 10 mins or more. Still free as of now. It does not however have any sound effects for new bids.

I just leave "My eBay" opened up and set the number of days to show at 0 so it only shows the current day's sales. I reload it every once in a while and can tell when I have new bids or BIN or whatever.
