You can add a new option in the Define Word Extension in Firefox to be able to select a word, right click and search other websites, such as eBay and Trademe without having to write it in.

Extension can be downloaded here: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/396/

Remember to restart Firefox after install

Tools, Extensions, click Define Word. Options

Click New

Choose what engine name you want, for example too show you what to do, I’ll choose the New Zealand auction site, Trademe as an example.

Now you can select on a word, right click, Define and Trademe it will then search trademe for the name you want.

It should work with other search sites, and auction sites like eBay, just replace the term you searched with: {search}
