Link Shortening Bookmarklets

Amazon and eBay love to use ugly links which aren't nice to share. Here's two bookmarklets to clean up these URLs before copying them.

How to use

Create a bookmark in your browser of choice, copy and paste the below code into the URL part of the bookmark, give it a witty name and save.

Tested with ebay.co.uk, ebay.com, ebay.de, amazon.co.uk, amazon.com in Chrome

eBay

javascript:(function(s){var l = /(.*ebay\..*itm.).*\/(\d+).*/.exec(location); prompt('Short URL', l[1]+l[2])})()

Amazon

javascript:(function(s){var l = /(.*amazon\..*?\/).*(dp\/.*?\/).*/.exec(location); prompt('Short URL', l[1]+l[2])})()
