***Coming Soon: New Version of eBay Toolbar***

September 21, 2005 | 06:18PM PST/PT


We are pleased to announce that a new version of eBay Toolbar will be available later this week. This free software provides quick and easy access to eBay from your desktop, and gives you timely status alerts for items you're bidding on, watching, or selling. Also included is Account Guard, an important feature that helps protect your account. Account Guard will alert you if you're on a potential spoof website and will also warn you if you’re about to enter your eBay or PayPal passwords into a non-eBay website.

We've added a number of features to eBay Toolbar based on Community input, including:

  • Gallery photo included in desktop alerts -– Now you'll see item photos when you receive desktop alerts.
  • Item won/not won alert -– You can track the items you've won, or not won, from your desktop. You'll be alerted shortly after items that you're bidding on or watching end.
  • Item sold/not sold alert -– You can also keep track of your sold and unsold items from your desktop. You'll see alerts on your desktop when your listings end.
  • Ask Seller a Question alert -– Sellers will now be alerted when a buyer has a question pending.
  • Second Chance Offer received alert -– Buyers will now be instantly notified when a seller makes them a Second Chance Offer on an item.
  • Best Offer received/accepted alert -– Sellers will be alerted when a buyer makes a Best Offer on an item they are selling, and buyers will be alerted if a seller chooses to accept their Best Offer.

For more information, please visit the eBay Toolbar page.

Please note: eBay Toolbar requires Internet Explorer for Windows. Users of previous versions of eBay Toolbar will be prompted to upgrade to the new version.
