Why can't I find vintage on Google?

Because most of it isn't there. Goodwill's auction site and Facebook Marketplace sit behind logins and scripts that Google doesn't index. Search "Roseville jardiniere" and you'll get eBay, Etsy, and a wall of Pinterest — you won't get the one sitting at $18 on shopgoodwill right now.

Prowl runs your search across 24 vintage marketplaces at once — including the ones Google skips. Free, no account, built by a collector who got tired of typing the same search into eight sites every morning.

How collectors use it

  • Your grail list — save the pieces you've hunted for years. Prowl remembers them and keeps them one tap away.
  • Search All — one term, every marketplace, including the ones Google can't reach.
  • Price Check — live asking prices, what pieces actually sold for in the last 90 days, and three years of deep comps. So you don't overpay.
  • Near Me — antique shops, estate sales, garage sales and auction maps around you. One tap, no typing.
  • Books & paper — AbeBooks, ThriftBooks and Biblio for first editions, signed copies and ephemera. Use the Books Quick Pick in Search All.
  • No account, no email, no fee — your list stays on your device.

Is Prowl free?

Yes. No account. Your search list stays on your device.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. Built mobile-first. Add to home screen. Allow pop-ups.

What are deep comps?

eBay only shows what sold in the last 90 days. For a rare piece that trades twice a year, that window is usually empty. Price Check also opens eBay's Terapeak research, which goes back three years and is free with any eBay account. Open it in your browser rather than the eBay app, or the date range gets dropped.
