Firefox Companion for eBay
While Sidebars can sometimes take up a fair amount of real estate, the eBay sidebar actually works pretty well, because it's something you'd only want to open when you need it to take a look at all the items you're selling, watching, or bidding on.

You can also place a bid or "buy it now" directly from the sidebar.
When you scroll your mouse over an item, more information pops up including a complete title and bid history.
