Verify a Listing
You found something and you're about to message the seller. Is the price actually good? Paste the listing into DealBot and find out before you commit.
Heads up: verifying listings from supported marketplaces is live and free. The Pro verify modes below (any URL, by description, by photo) aren't available yet — they arrive with the
Pro plan.
How it works
- 1Paste a listing URL from a supported marketplace into the search bar.
- 2DealBot reads the listing (product, condition, attributes, price) and searches the market for truly comparable items.
- 3You get a verdict: great deal, fair price, or overpriced, with the market median, the price range, and the comparable listings it was judged against, so you can see the reasoning for yourself.
The verdict is built the same way search results are scored: comparables are grouped so that the listing is only measured against items of the same kind, generation, and condition class.
What everyone gets
Verifying listings from supported marketplaces (currently eBay, Kijiji, and Facebook Marketplace, with more coming) is free, with no account needed, same as search.
What Pro adds Pro
Verify any URL
Not just supported marketplaces: paste a link to a Reddit post, a forum thread, a dealer page, any webpage describing an item for sale. DealBot's AI extracts the item details from the page, builds a listing from them, and runs the same market comparison.
Verify by description
No link at all? Describe the item the way the seller described it to you:
2019 Toyota RAV4 XLE AWD, 80,000 km, one owner, asking $22,000
DealBot turns the description into a listing and tells you how that asking price sits against the market.
Verify by photo
Take a picture of the item at a garage sale, in a store, at a friend's place. The AI identifies the item from the photo, builds a listing, and compares it against the market.
AI-inferred listings (from arbitrary URLs, descriptions, or photos) are built from whatever information is available, so the comparison is only as good as what the AI can see. They're used for your verdict only and aren't added to DealBot's listing database.
Good to know
- ·Verify requests are treated like searches by bot protection, which, like search, you'll never notice in normal use.
- ·A verdict is market context, not an inspection. It tells you how the price compares — it can't tell you whether the transmission is about to die. Always inspect before you buy.
- ·For thin markets (rare collectibles, unusual configurations), DealBot widens the comparison radius to find enough comparables, and tells you when it did.
