eBay to the Blog

eblogo

I’m an avid eBayer and have been on there since 1997.  I’ve now have a constant trickle of items for sale and was wondering if I could list a feed of my items on WordPress.  I found a common plugin but it wanted an RSS feed from eBay.  And of course they have taken that away and made it inconvenient to do.  But after searching I found a simple solution:

  1. Go to eBay and search for what you want
  2. Sort it into the order you want (i.e Newest, Least Expensive, etc)
  3. Copy the URL
  4. Append “&_rss=1” to the end of the URL
  5. Voila!

So at the top of this blog you will see a link to my listing page called “eBay”.  Check it out!
