1. In Firefox settings, tick "When using the address bar, suggest: Search engines".
2. Find an eBay search engine you like, install it in Firefox.
Now, when you type eba{Tab} Firefox will suggest the search engine you installed, and your continued typing will be as a search in that engine.
I don't use this for eBay, but I do use it for Rust, typing e.g. rust{tab}iterator takes me to the documentation for std::iterator and related entries.
