About Vigilante

Know what you're really paying for — before you hit "Place order." A lot of trendy online stores don't make what they sell. They list a product, mark it up, and quietly order it from a supplier on AliExpress or a similar marketplace when you check out. You pay $65; the exact same item ships from the same warehouse for $9. Vigilante catches that moment. When you reach a checkout page, it quietly checks whether the item you're about to buy is available direct from its source. If it is, a small card appears in the corner — "Same item, sold direct" — with the source seller, the price including shipping, and how much you'd save. One tap opens the direct listing. That's it. How it works Activates on product, cart, and checkout pages. Sends the page URL and product barcode to our lookup service; all other page data stays local. It reads the product's public identity from the page (title, price, product code, image) and asks our lookup service whether a verified source listing exists. If there's a confident match, you get a card with the direct link and price. If there isn't, you see nothing — no noise, no false alarms. You decide. Buy direct to save, or stay with the store for faster shipping and easier returns. Vigilante just makes the choice visible. Honest by design We only show a savings number we can stand behind. If we can't confirm the source price is current, we drop the figure and just point you to the source — we never invent a number. Matches are confirmed by identity, not by keywords. A card only appears when the product code, source image, or listing genuinely lines up — not because two items share a word in their title. We tell you when it's a different seller. Every card reminds you to check delivery time and returns before buying direct. Full disclosure, on every card: "Vigilante may earn a commission. Ranked by match, not payout." If you buy through a source link, we may earn an affiliate commission at no extra cost to you — and results are ordered by how well they match your item, never by what pays us most. Your privacy No account. No sign-up. No ads. We don't track your browsing, build a profile, or sell data. At checkout, Vigilante sends only the product's public details (its link, code, title, price, and image) to our lookup service to find a match. Nothing about you. Your on/off toggle and your running savings counter are stored on your own device. Good to know Free to use. Toggle it off anytime from the toolbar icon; it also shows how many deals it's found and your potential savings so far. Best on standard product and checkout pages that publish clean product data. Stop overpaying for markups you didn't know were there. Add Vigilante and see the real price — right when it matters.
