About FlipLens

FlipLens helps people who buy second-hand to resell decide in seconds whether an item is worth it, using real marketplace data from across Europe.

What it is

A web app for resellers and bargain hunters. Take a photo, scan a barcode or type a model, and FlipLens shows the resale range, your profit after fees and shipping, the most you should pay and a clear verdict. It also writes listings for Vinted, eBay and Kleinanzeigen from a photo and tracks what you bought and sold.

Who runs it

FlipLens is run by Evgenii Stepanishin in Slovenia. Contact: [email protected]. Creators and partners: see the partner programme.

Where the data comes from

Prices come from active eBay listings, read through the official eBay API: in Germany, France, Italy, Spain and the Netherlands, converted to euro with European Central Bank exchange rates, or on eBay.co.uk in pounds for sellers in the UK. Item recognition uses an AI vision model. Details and limits are explained in how it works.

Principles

  • Photos are never stored. They are only used to identify the item or write the listing.
  • No eBay data is stored. Listings are read live and cached briefly, as the eBay API licence requires.
  • Honest about uncertainty. Every estimate shows its confidence; with too little data FlipLens says so instead of guessing.
  • Independent. FlipLens is not affiliated with eBay, Vinted or Kleinanzeigen and does not buy, sell or ship items.

Languages

FlipLens is available in English, German, Italian and French. The app follows your browser language; German pages are under fliplens.eu/de, Italian under fliplens.eu/it and French under fliplens.eu/fr. See also the Privacy Policy and Terms.
