$
url="http://search.ebay.de/search/search.dll?MfcISAPICommand=GetResult&query=Fernandez
"

$ links -dump "$url"
$ links -source "$url"

Or just try wget or curl:

$ wget "$url" -O - 
$ curl "$url" 

Or lynx ? 

$ lynx -dump "$url"
$ lynx -source "$url"

Or w3m ?

$ w3m -dump "$url"
$ w3m -dump_source "$url"

Just read 'man curl wget w3m lynx links'.
