Know before you bid.
Free Chrome extension that overlays eBay sold comps and Amazon price history on every mac.bid auction lot — so you never have to wonder what something is actually worth.
Works with Chrome and Chromium-based browsers (Edge, Brave, Arc).
Why bidders use ThriftEdge
Real eBay Sold Prices
Recent real sales, not asking prices. See exactly what comparable items closed at on eBay before you commit to a bid.
Amazon Price History
CamelCamelCamel charts embedded on every lot. 3M / 6M / 1Y / All time ranges so you know whether new is cheap right now.
True Cost Calculator
Buyer’s premium, lot fees, and tax baked in. Enter your max total to see your max bid — and skip lots whose math never works out.
Watchlist Intelligence
The same overlays appear on your /account/watchlist page, with lazy-loaded cards picked up automatically.
Built for two kinds of bidder
Thrifters
Want a real deal — not a “deal.” Bid only when the math agrees.
Flippers
Need real margin — not hopeful margin. See the spread before you click.
How it works
Install from the Chrome Web Store
Browse mac.bid as you normally would
See price intel automatically on every lot
No configuration needed. The research panel appears on every lot page the moment you install.
A note on returns risk
mac.bid items are Amazon returns and closeouts, which means return-risk is part of every transaction. ThriftEdge gives you the data to factor that risk into every decision — before you click bid.
