HOW IT WORKS Open ThriftBuddy and frame the item in the scan box Tap to scan See live eBay pricing, profit estimate, and rarity rating in seconds Buy it, then list it straight to eBay from the same scan

Behind the scenes, ThriftBuddy uses AI vision to identify items by their barcode, brand logo, model number, or visual appearance. Then it pulls current eBay listings for the same product and checks each one against your photo, so a lookalike doesn't set your price. Where eBay has a catalogue entry for the product, it matches that too. Prices reflect what a buyer actually pays — item plus delivery. Your match score tells you how confident the identification is, so you know how much weight to put on the number.

PRIVACY Built by a solo developer who actually cares about privacy. No advertising. No tracking across other apps. No third-party analytics. The photos you scan aren't kept on our server after the scan completes, and never go into a backup. Photos you attach to an eBay listing are sent to eBay, which is the whole point of listing. The optional account uses Sign in with Apple only — we never ask for your name or email — and you can delete it from inside the app. Read the full privacy policy at getthriftbuddy.com/privacy.

A NOTE ON PRICING ACCURACY ThriftBuddy is a research tool, not a guarantee. Prices shown are what sellers are currently asking, not completed sales, and asking prices fluctuate. Even an accurate identification can return a wide range for unusual or rare items. Always use your own judgment before buying or selling. The match score on every scan tells you how confident the identification is — high confidence with lots of comparable listings is reliable, low confidence means double-check before pulling the trigger.
