The Bottom Line

eBay Item Title Fix is a Greasemonkey user script which modifies the title on all eBay item pages by displaying the end of auction date/timestamp first.

This script requires the Firefox web browser and the Greasemonkey extension.

Pros
  • Displaying the EoA date/time first makes bookmarking and reviewing active auctions a lot easier.
Cons
  • This script is only compatible with eBay.com and eBay.de.
Description
  • eBay Item Title Fix rearranges the titles of eBay item pages.
  • The page title which is modified is displayed in Firefox's title bar, located at the very top of your browser window.
  • The default title format for eBay item pages is as follows: <Item Name> - (<Item Number> <End of Auction Date/Time>)
  • eBay Item Title Fix displays item page titles in the following format: <EoA Date/Time> - <Item Name> - <Item Number>
Guide Review - eBay Item Title Fix
One of the simpler Greasemonkey scripts available for the auction giant, eBay Item Title Fix does a nice job of helping you organize active items that are bookmarked in your browser. Quickly scan through saved listings with the ending time of each auction prominently displayed up front. Even if you do not store auctions in this manner, this script is still useful while browsing eBay itself as the first thing you notice in the title bar is the current item's EoA date and time. There isn't much to this one, but it is still a nice tool to add to Firefox.
