The Best Free Terapeak Alternative for eBay Sellers (2026)
Terapeak's 250-search daily limit is killing your sourcing speed. Here's the free Chrome extension that replaced it for thousands of resellers — no cap, no signup, no subscription.
Why eBay sellers are leaving Terapeak
Terapeak used to be the go-to sold-price research tool for eBay resellers. Since eBay absorbed it into Seller Hub, three complaints dominate every reseller forum:
- The 250-search daily cap. Every filter change counts as a new search. Real-world limit is closer to 80-100 actual lookups before you're cut off.
- The interface is buried inside Seller Hub. Multiple clicks and page loads to see sold data for a single item.
- No profit calculation. You still have to do the 12.99% + $0.30 eBay fee math in your head (or a calculator) for every listing.
ex FlipScout: the free Terapeak alternative
ex FlipScout is a free Chrome extension that shows average sold prices, price ranges, and profit after eBay fees directly on the eBay listing page. No tabs, no Seller Hub, no counting searches.

How to replace Terapeak in 30 seconds
- Install the free ex FlipScout Chrome extension from the Chrome Web Store
- Go to ebay.com and search any item
- Filter by "Sold Items" like you already do
- ex FlipScout overlays the average sold price, range, and profit after fees on the page
No signup. No login. No Seller Hub. You were going to look at sold listings anyway — now the math just appears.
Is ex FlipScout really free?
Yes. You get 3 sold-price lookups per day forever on the free tier. For casual flippers checking the 3 items they're unsure about on a thrift run, that's usually enough. Power sellers listing 50+ items a day get unlimited lookups on Pro ($14.99/mo) or Lifetime ($89 once). Terapeak's 250/day limit means the "free" Terapeak tier doesn't exist — it's bundled with an eBay Store subscription starting at $21.95/month.
What resellers say after switching
"Terapeak was burning through its 250 before I finished a single thrift stop. ex FlipScout just shows the number. Back to normal."
"The profit-after-fees calculation alone saves me 30 seconds per item. 20 items × 30 sec × 6 days a week = real hours back."
Frequently asked questions
Is ex FlipScout affiliated with Terapeak or eBay?
No. ex FlipScout is an independent free Chrome extension built by a solo reseller. It reads public sold-listing data on pages you're already viewing — the same data you see manually in Terapeak.
Does it work on international eBay sites?
Yes — ebay.com, ebay.co.uk, ebay.ca, ebay.com.au, ebay.de, ebay.fr, ebay.it, and ebay.es. Same instant data on any eBay market.
Will eBay ban my account for using it?
No. ex FlipScout doesn't automate any actions, doesn't log in, and doesn't touch your seller account. It reads data that's already on the page in your browser. It's the same as you reading sold listings manually — just faster.
What if I hit the free lookup limit?
Nothing breaks. You see a friendly upgrade prompt. Come back tomorrow for 3 more, or upgrade to Pro for unlimited.
