Extension summary

Version 5.1 patches the code for an internal change Ebay recently made which broke the extension filtering.

Version 5 adds two new search listing filters, allowing users to filter out multiple countries and sellers in searches. Both filters are accessible from the Configure MedBetterBUY page (not the context menu). If you wish to list multiple countries or sellers, simply separate each by a comma.

Version 4.0 adds three new listing filters: Pre-Owned, Open box, and Refurbished.

Version 3.0 of MedBetterBUY adds support for filtering (hiding) search listings with zero bids or one or more bids, by user request. Remember that Seller information must be checked in Customize your search, so that bid information shows up in the search listings. (Yes, it is possible to check both and have no listings shown, unless you also include Buy It Now and other non-Auction listings in the Buying Format.)

MedBetterBuy is designed for eBay users who want greater control over their search results. The extension filters eBay searches to hide item entries from sellers who have a feedback score or rating percentage below or above values you specify, as well as the ability to filter out Top-rated sellers.

IMPORTANT: To use this script, check the Seller Information box in Show details of View Customize, which will display seller information in listings. Choose List View and not Gallery View. Otherwise, the information to filter will not be available, and MedBetterBuy will not work.

MedBetterBuy works via the context menu, generally accessed through right click or control-click of the mouse. There are five possible filters to apply to search listing from the menu: if a listing is from a top seller, a minimum and maximum rating percentage for the seller in a listing, and a minimum and maximum rating count for the seller in a listing.

The values for minimum and maximum can be set at the Configure options pages, which is the last selection on MedBetterBuy's context menu. Each filter can be checked on and off from the context menu. The current total of filtered out (not visible) listing is shown on the first line of the context menu.
