ShopGoodwill sniper for last-second wins.
Buy underpriced auctions.

Queue ShopGoodwill auctions from a URL or your Favorites, compare them to eBay comps, and let us place your bid in the final seconds of the auction.

Pay only when you win on Standard. You bid with your own ShopGoodwill account.

How it works

1

Connect ShopGoodwill

Link your ShopGoodwill account once. Credentials are encrypted at rest (AES-256-GCM); the decryption key stays on our bidding server.

2

Add auctions & check eBay

Paste a ShopGoodwill item or pull from your Favorites. We compare it to recent eBay sales, net of fees and shipping, so you see estimated profit before you snipe.

3

Snipe automatically

Set your max bid and walk away. Our workers place the bid in the last seconds of the auction so you are not bidding early and driving the price up.

What you get

eBay comps on every snipe

When you queue an auction, we price it against recent eBay sales with fees and shipping baked in.

Last-second bidding

Bids fire seconds before close from a pre-warmed session, reducing the chance of an early bidding war.

ShopGoodwill Favorites

Items you star on ShopGoodwill sync here. Run an eBay price check, then queue a snipe with one click.

Durable snipe queue

Scheduled bids live in the database with leases, so a worker restart does not wipe your queue. Missed snipes can still happen if ShopGoodwill or the network fails.

Pay only when you win

Standard charges 2% of the hammer on confirmed wins, billed on the 1st or when unpaid fees reach $10. Pro is $10/month with 0% commission.

Frequently asked questions

What is a ShopGoodwill sniper?+

A ShopGoodwill sniper is software that places your max bid in the final seconds of an auction instead of bidding early. BuzzerBidder is a hosted sniper: you queue auctions from a URL or Favorites, compare them to eBay comps, and we bid with your own ShopGoodwill account near close.

What is BuzzerBidder?+

BuzzerBidder is a hosted ShopGoodwill sniper. You queue auctions from a URL or your ShopGoodwill Favorites, compare them to recent eBay sales, and we place your bid in the final seconds using your own ShopGoodwill account.

How does ShopGoodwill sniping work?+

You set a max bid. Our workers keep a scheduled job and fire the bid seconds before the auction ends, so you are not bidding early and pushing the price up. A bid can still be missed if ShopGoodwill or the network fails.

ShopGoodwill auto bid vs manual bidding — what's the difference?+

Manual bidding means you watch the clock and click near the end. Auto bid (sniping) schedules that last-second bid for you. Hosted tools like BuzzerBidder keep the queue on a server so you do not need your laptop open. Early manual bids can also raise the visible price and attract competition.

When do you charge?+

Standard has no monthly subscription. We charge 2% of the hammer price on confirmed wins. Those fees are billed on the 1st of each month, or sooner if unpaid fees reach $10. If you do not win, there is no success fee for that auction. Pro is $10/month with 0% commission while the subscription is active.

Does BuzzerBidder have a pay-per-win / per-snipe option?+

Yes. Standard is pay-as-you-go: 2% of the hammer only on confirmed wins, no monthly fee. Pro is optional at $10/month with 0% success fee. That differs from tools that bill a credit every time a bid fires, including losses. You still pay ShopGoodwill for the item, shipping, and tax separately.

Do you store my ShopGoodwill password?+

Yes, encrypted at rest with AES-256-GCM. The decryption key stays on the bidding server and is used only to place bids you schedule and to check outcomes. We do not show the password in the app after you save it.

Is BuzzerBidder affiliated with ShopGoodwill?+

No. BuzzerBidder is an independent tool. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by ShopGoodwill or Goodwill Industries.
