FREE BETA · PLAYER 1 READY
Only the retro game deals worth your money.
eBay alerts are noisy: repros, PAL copies, loose carts listed as "complete", and prices that look great until you add $25 shipping. RetroSnag reads your eBay saved-search alerts and emails you only the listings under your all-in price.

How it works
- 1
Save a search on eBay
Search for the game you want (say, "EarthBound SNES"), save the search, and turn on eBay's email alerts.
- 2
Forward alerts to RetroSnag
Sign up below to get a private address like
k3x9…@in.retrosnag.com. Add a Gmail filter that forwards eBay alerts there. We relay Gmail's confirmation code to you automatically. - 3
Get only real deals
We check every listing against your rules: max all-in price, condition, region, no repros. Matches land in your inbox. Everything else is silently dropped, and you never see the same listing twice.

FAQ
Is RetroSnag affiliated with eBay?
No. RetroSnag is independent. You keep using eBay's own saved-search emails and forward them to your private RetroSnag address; we filter them and email you only the good ones. We never log in to eBay or scrape it.
What does "all-in price" mean?
Item price plus shipping. You set the most you'd pay in total, and we only alert you when price plus shipping is at or under it.
How do you spot reproductions?
We drop listings whose titles mention repro, reproduction, custom, homebrew, aftermarket, bootleg, replica or fan-made. It catches the honest-but-buried ones; always check photos and seller feedback before buying.
How does Gmail forwarding work?
In Gmail go to Settings → Forwarding and POP/IMAP → Add a forwarding address and paste your RetroSnag address. Google sends a code to that address; we email it straight to you. Then create a filter for eBay alert emails and choose "Forward it to" your RetroSnag address. Outlook and other providers work too, or forward alerts by hand.
What about my other email?
Only forward eBay alerts. Anything that isn't from eBay or from you is ignored and not processed.
How much does it cost?
The beta is free for up to 3 wishlist items. A paid plan with unlimited items is planned; you'll never be charged without opting in.
How do I stop emails?
Every email has a one-click unsubscribe link. Turn off the Gmail filter and forwarding stops too.
