KufarBot: Kufar Listings Tracker

Good things on Kufar vanish within hours: you check in the evening and the bike you wanted sold long ago. KufarBot works with the site's search links, so you do not need to refresh the page by hand. 🔎

A link instead of settings

The bot does not ask you to enter filters again. You set up the search on the site itself, the way you are used to, then give the bot the finished link.

That is convenient: price, region, category and condition are already encoded in the page address. All that is left is saving it.

Getting started step by step

The order is described in the bot's own welcome text.

1. Send /menu to open the main menu.
2. Choose the "Links" section, then "Add new".
3. On the Kufar site set your search parameters and press "Show".
4. Copy the address of the page that opens and send it to the bot.

Add a separate link for each item you want, one per query. That keeps a sofa from mixing with a graphics card. 🛋️

Who benefits

• Buyers of rare things. Vintage gear, spare parts and anything that appears rarely.
• Bargain hunters. Someone who prices below market finds a buyer quickly, so being first matters.
• Resellers. They watch a niche and compare prices.

Sellers can use it too: watch competitors in your category and set a price with the market in mind.

Staying clear of scammers

Instant alerts push you to hurry, and hurry is a scammer's best friend. A few rules 🛡️

• Do not pay a deposit to a stranger.
• Meet in a busy place and inspect the item on the spot.
• Ignore links "for delivery payment" sent in private messages.
• Compare the price with the market: a deal that looks too good usually is a trap.

What the author lists

The bot's profile names an administrator you can contact about how it works. The only command in the menu is /menu, and everything else runs through buttons.

The bot is independent and does not belong to the marketplace. If Kufar changes how the site is built, third-party tools can behave differently, so when something breaks, first check that your link still opens in a browser.

When alerts do not arrive

Make sure the link works and points to a search results page, not the home page. Check that the bot is not blocked and the chat is not muted. A very narrow filter also gives silence: widen the price range or region.
