Product research

Find products that actually sell, before you list them

Pick a category and let it run. Sellhelm searches your suppliers, checks eBay for demand and the price you could sell at, and ranks what is worth selling.

  • Start with a wordType a few product words or a whole category, choose which supplier shops to search, and how many products you want.
  • Checked on eBay as it goesEach product found is checked on eBay for what it sells for, how many sellers list it and what it has sold, so the first answers arrive within minutes.
  • A verdict, with the reasonWorth selling, Maybe, Not worth it or Not enough data (when eBay gives too little to judge), with the profit on a sale, the return and the margin, and why it was judged that way.

  • Your own thresholdsYou set the profit per sale, the return and the demand a product must reach. Change them and the verdicts are worked out again from what was already read, without searching again.
  • Honest about demandeBay shows how many sold in 90 days only to someone signed in to eBay in the browser Sellhelm uses. When it is not shown, demand is judged from watchers and sales on the listings, and the page says so.
  • Built to run all nightRuns are kept in the program and carry on where they stopped if you close the page or restart Sellhelm. Pause, resume or stop any run.
  • Straight into DraftsAdd the products you like to Drafts in one click, with the supplier's page, photos and price ready for you to check.
  • Pay only for what the AI checksA credit pays for the AI photo check. A product that fails your price, profit or sold-in-90-days rules is turned away before it and costs nothing; one that reaches it uses one credit, whatever the AI decides.
  • Amazon Prime, read properlyAn Amazon result shows whether it is Prime next-day, the delivery date and the Prime price against everyone else's. Tell Sellhelm whether you have Prime and the profit is worked out the way you would really buy it.

A verdict is evidence, not a guarantee: a product that looks good can still stop selling. Use it to decide what is worth a closer look.

Competitor research

Spy on any eBay seller, then find their supplier

Type an eBay.com username and see their whole shop with eBay's own sold figures. Then let Sellhelm track down where each winner is bought.

  • Their whole shopEvery page of what a seller has for sale, up to about 1,800 listings, with price, condition and watcher count.
  • The real sold figureRead from each listing's own page, because eBay's search page only shows one for a busy listing. It is the lifetime total, as eBay does not publish a last-30-days figure.
  • Or only what has soldScan a seller's whole shop, or only their sold items (eBay's own "Sold items" filter), each with the date it last sold. eBay shows that view only to a signed-in browser, and Sellhelm tells you if yours is not.

Competitor research: a seller's listings with their sold counts and the supplier matches found, each with its proof
Every detail of competitor research6 more
  • Free, however big the shopReading a seller never uses a search credit. Researched sellers are kept, with their totals, so the shops worth a close look stand out.
  • Find the supplier behind a winnerSellhelm uses the barcode, part number, brand, photos and description of a listing and searches for the product at the shops it reads, Amazon and AliExpress included.
  • Matches come with proofEach one shows why it is the same product: the same barcode, the same part number, or the title and photo together, with a check that the price makes sense.
  • Your profit, not a guessEach match shows what you would keep selling at the same price, from your own fee settings.
  • Runs while you do something else"Find suppliers for all" works through the shop in the background, best sellers first, and carries on if you close the page or restart Sellhelm.
  • One credit, only for a resultA search credit is spent when at least one supplier is found, however many it finds. A listing it finds nothing for costs nothing, and says so.

It reads only public eBay pages, never signs in to anyone's account and never touches a seller's listings. A seller who buys privately is harder to follow, and Sellhelm says "not found" rather than guessing.

Pricing

Prices worked out from what you want to keep

You say what return you want on the money you spend. Sellhelm finds the price that gives it.

  • Return on spend, not markupSpend $100, keep $25. Default target 25%, set it once or per product. A flat-markup mode exists too, and still shows what you keep.
  • Every fee, countedeBay's tiered final value fee and the per-order fee, which is lower on orders of $10 or under. Fees are charged on shipping too, so that is counted as well.
  • Fee rates you controlSellhelm starts from eBay US's standard business-seller rates, and every rate is a setting, so the sums stay right when eBay changes them.

  • Price endingsRound up to .99, .95, .49 or .00, or not at all.
  • Floors, ceilings and extrasNever list below or above a price, globally or per product. Add a fixed amount on top. Set what shipping costs you per shop or per product, and what you charge the buyer.
  • Pin your own priceSet a price by hand and automatic repricing leaves it alone, while still watching the cost and showing what the target would say.
  • See it before you set itType any price on a product and watch what you keep and your return change before you commit.
  • Sales tax stays out of iteBay collects and pays the sales tax on your eBay sales itself, so it is never in the price math and never taken out of what you keep.

Sellhelm refuses settings that would misprice your shop, such as a floor above a ceiling or a shipping cost with an extra zero, and tells you why.

Drafts

Drafts you check before anything goes live

Adding a product never puts it on eBay. You look at it first, and eBay is asked before it is created.

  • Add many at oncePaste a list of links, one per line, and each becomes a draft. Or preview the first one to see the price, category, photos and description before adding.
  • Compare, then check the boxEach draft lays out the facts the listing will state, beside a link to the supplier's page, with a box for "I have compared these and they are right".
  • Ask eBay first"Check with eBay first" asks whether eBay would accept the checked drafts, and shows any warnings, missing item specifics or dropped photos, creating nothing.

  • The right categoryChosen from eBay's own suggestion and Sellhelm's word matching, and you can change it. Listings in retired categories are flagged.
  • Item specifics filled inSize, material, color and the like are read from the specification, in the units eBay expects, or left blank rather than guessed. Brand and MPN come only from your settings, never from the supplier.
  • Photos checkedEvery photo is measured. Under 500 px is dropped, under 1,000 px kept with a warning, up to 24 per listing, drag to reorder, and a product with no usable photo cannot be listed.
  • 80-character titlesTrimmed on a word boundary, with brand names stripped.
  • The supplier never showsThe send itself refuses any title, description, item specific, photo file name or address that names a shop, however it is spelled.
  • A brand check before it goes liveEach draft is checked against eBay's list of protected brands, including misspellings and "compatible with" copy words, and an unknown brand is held for you to approve. It is a watch list, not a guarantee: eBay publishes no complete list, so check anything you are unsure of.

Shops publish text and photographs that belong to them. Check that you may use what you list.

Designs

Listings that look like a shop, not a paste

Five designs, up to 24 photo slots, and wording that follows your own eBay policies.

  • Five designsCobalt Classic (4 photos), Emerald Gallery (6), Ember Grid (8), Royal Showcase (5) and Graphite Studio (3). Every design fills itself the same way; only the look changes.
  • 1 to 24 photo slotsA slot with no photograph is dropped, so more slots than photos is safe. Photos are filled with eBay's own copies once the listing exists.
  • Your shop, everywhereYour shop name, tagline and initials tile or logo go on every listing. Change it once and it reaches them all.

VeRO and titles

Listings that keep you out of trouble

The things that get a dropshipper's listing taken down are checked before it goes live: protected brands, weak titles, poor photos and a supplier's name.

  • A watch list that updates itselfBrands whose owners report listings to eBay, in two groups: avoid, and check first. It is refreshed daily by Sellhelm, so you never have to maintain it.
  • Checked as a draft is madeA flagged draft is held until you have looked at it. Misspelt brands and copy words such as "replica" or "dupe" are caught too.
  • A title checker that is honestEight checks, scored out of 100, inside eBay's 80 characters. It uses eBay's own search suggestions and top listings, and only adds a word that is true of the product.

  • Photos screenedPhotos under 500 px are left out and anything under 1,000 px gets a warning. Up to 24 photos are kept for a listing.
  • Your supplier is never namedNo title, description or design may name your supplier. Sellhelm refuses to build a listing that does.
  • The honest limiteBay has more than 40,000 rights owners and publishes no complete list. This is an aid, and it says "look closer", never "safe".

A check is not permission to sell. It catches the common problems; it cannot know every protected brand, so the last look is yours.

Watching

It keeps watching, and it keeps you safe

Suppliers change prices and sell out. Sellhelm notices, and puts guard rails between a bad reading and your live listings.

  • A schedule you chooseCheck every 30 minutes up to every 24 hours (default 4), with quiet hours so it never runs when you would rather it did not. Choose "check only" to update your figures without touching eBay, or "check and send".
  • Big jumps are heldAny change beyond your limit (default 25%) waits for you, old and new side by side, with a Send it now link. A misread $1.99 cannot reprice a live listing.
  • Stock-outs still go throughWhile a price waits for you, a sell-out is still sent so nobody buys what you cannot get. A restock waits with its price.

  • It will not end a listing by accidentSellhelm reads eBay's out-of-stock setting first. If it is off, a stock-out is held and the Overview tells you how to switch it on.
  • Unknown is never acted onA page that cannot be read, or says something ambiguous, leaves your listing alone. "Unavailable" is never taken as "in stock".
  • A cap on changesBy default no more than 100 changes go in one run, stock changes first, the rest wait for the next.
  • A read-rate breakerIf fewer than 80% of the pages it could reach were readable, nothing is sent at all, in case a shop has changed its layout.
  • A record of every decisionEach check notes what it did to each product: sent, refused by eBay, held, deferred or unreadable, with the old and new figures and the reason.
  • Low returns are flaggedA live listing returning less than your "flag returns under" figure is marked, so nothing quietly stays a bad deal.

Automatic checks run while Sellhelm is open on your PC. It never ends a listing on its own: only the Remove button does, and it asks first.

Orders

An order desk built around saving clicks

Orders arrive from eBay. Placing them with the supplier and telling eBay the tracking takes a fraction of the time.

  • Real eBay statesAwaiting payment, paid and to ship, shipped, delivered, cancellation requested, canceled, refunded, with a journey line from sold to delivered.
  • Cards that are filtersTo order, waiting for tracking, on their way, delivered, need attention, canceled or refunded, and feedback received. Search by product, code, order number, tracking or supplier reference.
  • The deadline, plainDays left to ship, ship today, or how many days late, so nothing counts against you unseen.

  • What it really madeType what you paid and it works out eBay's actual fees, your cost, what you kept and your return against your target, as you type.
  • Feedback watchedPositive, neutral and negative counts, and orders delivered with none yet. Only the type and date are kept, never the words.
  • Your history, tooSync brings in the last 90 days of eBay orders. For older ones, import a Seller Hub orders file.

Buyer names, addresses and phone numbers are read from eBay each time you open an order and are never saved. A test in the program fails if that ever changes.

Tracking and auto orders Optional add-on

Let Sellhelm place the order, and give every buyer a tracking page

An optional add-on. When a sale comes in, Sellhelm fills in the Amazon order in your own Chrome, follows the parcel and shows your buyer where it is. You stay in charge of the money.

  • Orders filled in for youIn your own Chrome, Sellhelm puts the item in the basket, types in your buyer's address (taken from eBay at that moment and never saved), chooses free Prime delivery and stops on the last page. You check it and press pay.
  • Your rules are keptPrime delivery only, unless you turn that off. An order is held back if the price has gone up by more than you allow (10% to start with). Each account has a daily limit (15 orders to start with) and a short random pause between orders.
  • Tracking goes onto the eBay orderIf the parcel has a normal courier tracking number (USPS, UPS, FedEx and so on), Sellhelm adds it to the eBay order and marks the order shipped. Amazon's own delivery vans give no number eBay accepts, so for those parcels your buyer follows the parcel on your tracking page instead.

  • Private by designNo accounts, cookies or tracking scripts, no buyer name or address, and no mention of your supplier or the courier.
  • Press pay yourself, or notStart with "Fill it in, then I press pay". When you trust it, "Buy it completely" lets Sellhelm press pay too, only when the address, quantity, Prime delivery and total all check out.
  • Never changes a numberSellhelm never converts, changes or disguises a tracking number, and never uses a tracking-conversion service.

The small print, plainly: automatic ordering works for Amazon today and AliExpress is coming. Chrome has to be open with Sellhelm running. Ordering through your own Amazon accounts may go against Amazon's rules, and Sellhelm says so on screen. Start with "Fill it in, then I press pay" and only use accounts you could afford to lose.

Your eBay account

Your whole eBay account, without opening eBay

Sellhelm reads your account straight from eBay when you open a page: no exports and no second login. Six pages, from what needs you today to your seller level.

  • Seller hubWhat needs you today: unread messages, open returns and cases, your balance, seller level and the week's traffic, on one screen.
  • TrafficImpressions, views, click rate, conversion and sales, where views come from (search, your shop, direct, other eBay pages, outside eBay), by day and by listing, from 7 to 90 days.
  • MoneyAvailable, processing and on-hold funds, your last 20 payouts, and every sale, refund and fee for up to a year, with fees by kind and by month. It needs a one-off signing key, which Sellhelm makes with eBay for you.

  • A "Needs you" stripMost urgent first: orders past eBay's ship-by date, buyers asking to cancel, negative feedback, products out of stock, supplier pages that could not be read and drafts waiting. When nothing needs you it says so.

  • Sales to profitSales, what the goods cost, eBay's fees, other costs and profit, with a warning where a sale has no cost recorded.
  • Sales tax is eBay's jobeBay collects sales tax from your buyers and pays it to the states itself, so it is not in your sales figure and there is no sales-tax return for eBay sales. Sales tax you pay a supplier is part of what the goods cost you.

32 shops have a profile: how to read them, how gently, and what they charge for shipping. Any other product page usually works too.

  • Probe any linkPaste a product link and see exactly what Sellhelm would read from it: price, stock, photos and specification, before you add anything.
  • Check every supplierOne button tests every supplier on your list the way a product is read, and lists what it could and could not read.

Many accounts, own stock

Run it your way: many shops, your own stock, your own PC

One license covers your computer, never your eBay accounts. Run a furniture shop, a toy shop and an eBay US shop side by side, each kept completely apart, and list stock you hold yourself.

  • Your shop stays on your PCThe database is a folder on your own computer. It contacts us to activate and check your license, to fetch the brand watch list and, for product research, to count a credit. None of that sends your products, prices, orders or buyers.
