Our Story
ItemsToFlip launched in 2024 after our founder, Jose, got tired of losing money on items that looked profitable but weren't after eBay fees and shipping costs ate into the margins. After selling over 1,000 items on eBay since 2019, he knew there had to be a better way.
The problem? Most "profit calculators" either required expensive subscriptions, made you create accounts just to check a price, or gave inaccurate estimates that didn't match real eBay fees. So we built ItemsToFlip from scratch using the official eBay Browse API to provide accurate, real-time market data.
Today, ItemsToFlip helps thousands of resellers make smarter buying decisions. It's 100% free because we believe every flipper—whether you're just starting or running a full-time business—deserves access to the same quality data.

Full-stack developer and eBay reseller since 2019. Started flipping electronics and collectibles as a side hustle, grew it to over 1,000 items sold, and built ItemsToFlip to solve the profit calculation problems I faced daily while sourcing.
How ItemsToFlip Works
Step 1: Search for Any Item
Enter any product name, brand, or keyword. We search eBay's database of millions of active listings in real-time using the official eBay Browse API.
Step 2: View Market Prices Instantly
See current Buy It Now prices, shipping costs, item conditions, and seller ratings. Data is refreshed every 6 hours for accuracy and API compliance.
Step 3: Calculate Your Profit
Our profit calculator factors in eBay's 12.9% final value fee, $0.30 per-order fee, shipping costs, and your purchase price to show your actual profit margin.
Step 4: Make Informed Decisions
With real data in hand, decide whether to buy, pass, or negotiate. No more guesswork—just smart, data-driven flipping decisions.
