    Is the email account you use for ebay on your blackberry? eBay sends outbid notices via email.

    They'll do SMS alerts as well, but they'll rock ya like 15 cents per message or something like that.

    I also tried the AIM notification just to play around, and it never worked, but there are several options for ya there.

    Adding your ebay email to your BB is the easiest/least expensive if you have a BB data plan. If you use a gmail/yahoo/and (sometimes) hotmail account, the notifications will be near instant.

    You could either A) add the address you use on eBay to your BB .. or B) set a filter on your eBay address so the outbid notices forward to your BB

    Raw, I'm not certain what you're saying "no it's not" about, but I can assure you I receive outbid notifications very email on every item I am outbidon. I also receive them as SMS alerts.

    Raw, you didnt have to set up word filters or anything like that. As long as the associated eBay email account is on your BB, your outbid, watched items, and won items will be sent to you via email. If you're filtering the word "eBay" you may get every item known to mankind and you specifically said in your original post, "notifications."

    Does anyone know a way that I can receive free outbid notices for my eBay auctions?
    What I dont understand is your use of the word "free?" Notifications from eBay do not cost anything.

    According to the ebay website, it's 25 cents for every 10 sms per item.

    Per item? Really, how many times do you get outbid on per item?
