HOW IT WORKS

Turn repeated eBay searches into one collector radar.

RareAlert keeps every hunt separate, applies the filters that matter to that item, and organizes matching listings in one place.

01

Create a focused search

Start with the eBay phrase you would normally search. Give the search a clear name so it is easy to manage later.

02

Add its individual filters

Choose price, listing type, condition, category, region, grading options, required keywords, excluded keywords, and whether alerts are enabled.

03

Run all active searches together

RareAlert scans active searches and combines matching listings into one organized dashboard.

04

Review only what matters

Use New Listings to identify unseen inventory. Save interesting listings to your Vault or hide items you do not want to see.

05

Enable optional automatic alerts

Alert-enabled searches are scanned every six hours. Emails are sent only when qualifying listing activity exists.

06

Keep improving the search

When a new junk term appears, add it to the excluded list. RareAlert rechecks stored results against the updated search.

One search can have dozens of exclusionsThe right filter list can remove imports, accessories, parts, reproductions, and other unwanted listings.
WHY THE DETAIL MATTERS

A Game Boy search should not behave like a Pokémon card search.

Different collectibles attract different kinds of irrelevant listings. RareAlert lets every saved search keep its own rules instead of forcing one generic filter setup across your account.

  • Require multiple words together or accept alternatives
  • Exclude any term that repeatedly creates bad results
  • Separate Buy It Now searches from auctions
  • Apply grading and price requirements only where needed
