JAN13  It look’s like, that DAVE and GARAGEsale team them self have done a lot of clicking on +/- icons .... LOL ...

Well, that will definitely not help the issue ... scripting, scripting ... scripting Mr. Dave, that is what we are talking about here !

I do NOT say, that Garagesale software is no good, I am saying it could be much better if person from Garagesale developer site will be not that overconfident ..

RE : Well, I think we tried very hard not to be overconfident, because when you get overconfident, that's when something snaps up and bites you.

STUDIODAVE56  Well it would seem that, JAN13 does not know what leg he/she is standing on. You can not host your pictures on "your own server" and use "Ebay Picture Service" at the same time.

"EPS" stores the pictures on it's own servers, that's how it works. GarageSale is a very good program for what it does. I would like a few more things from it and I see over time they are getting implemented. The support from GS developers I will say is the best I have ever had, they are the only developer that when I had trouble for a long time with a pesky issue and asked respectively, Ilja contacted me through ichat and we solved the problem. It was a very difficult problem to track down. So from Germany to the USA we talked and shared the screen. I see another of my long time hopes showing up in this program now. Thanks iwascoding for sticking with it.

JAN13  GarageSale 5.3b5 ... is a very GOOD (!) update thou old blemish with posting eBay in store “specials” like new arrivals and item on sale still does not work. You have to do it manualy. Why? Because the link on image siting on your server will become to be dead ....

If this issue will be fixed the GarageSale 5.x or what ever version of it The GarageSale will be a UNDISPUTED CHAMPION with hands down in category of eBay selling software for Mac computer. Period !

JAN13  Well days and days pass by and “The Developer” is unwilling to help ... all I have from him is a note ...

“...Or are you just trolling? “

Very nice. Maybe he meant to say “drooling“ but who cares ...

Bottom part of this issue is, that this Garagesale application which could be hands down the best there is is not the best because the guy who pose him self as a developer seams to be kind of cocky .... unfortunately !

JAN13  GarageSale from IWASCODING, appears to be a sophisticated application by its interface and relatively easy way of use ... It does not take much time to be completely familiar with operation futures of this application to do an easy workflow in submitting your auction files to eBay.

To say all this, this comment I just made maybe in interest for those who are occasional user of eBay auctions.

For those who mean a serious business selling on eBay, this application GarageSale has one MAJOR FLAW ... !!! Reason why is, that if you have your own eBay store where you pay 0.04US for submitting one item, then in GaraSale Inspector you have to use : / Use eBaySore / List as a Store Item / Choose your Category and then check EPS Option ... and HERE IS A PROBLEM !!!

You can not use EPS option if you upload your IMAGE files to servers like ME.COM etc., to save your self money in thousands of $$$ ... since this EPS Option is unavailable !!!

Your ONLY OPTION is to manually ad one image to every auction you have posted on eBay to be able to display these images in NEW ARRIVALS bar in your eBay store ... !!!

Tedious and painful work which takes time, slow you down in workflow making your business unproductive !

We have contacted developer who turn on us in manners strange to North American attitude unveiling to resolve this flaw issue, he, developer has knowledge off ... !!!

He developer of GarageSale, knows very well about this problem but he was trying to sweep us under carpet with a primitive excuse witch did have a lifespan of few minutes ... In contrast with US and Canadian software companies which provide an excellent technical support, this company IWASCODING appears as a JOKE !!!

We are very disappointed with GarageSale c/o http://www.iwascoding.com/ and obviously we are definitely looking in to other option.

This application GarageSale c/o http://www.iwascoding.com/ as it stand now IS ABSOLUTELY USELESS !!!

Yes, you are completely right. And it makes completely sense to do it that way.

1. EPS stands for Ebay picture service, which costs you money. Therefore most people use their own server for image storage (or our free image hosting for non-store items).

2. If you use EPS, there are some additional options (like super size image), that will cost you an additional fee on top of the regular EPS free. Since you are free to use any size you want if you run your own server, there is need to offer EPS options if you are using your own server.

Or are you just trolling?

XENOPHILE   In contrast with US and Canadian software companies which provide an excellent technical support, this company IWASCODING appears as a JOKE !!!

If you were this offensive with GarageSale's developer, no wonder he didn't want to help you. What on Earth does a developer's nationality have to do with software quality and customer service? I'll tell you what: nothing. U.S. and Canadian developers are unfortunately every bit as capable of delivering worthless support as their counterparts from the rest of the world.

Next time you want help or sympathy, don't insult 85% of the world, and maybe you'll get a better response.

FWIW my experience with iwascoding support has been as good as it gets.

JAN13  No IDEA (!!!) where this person writing comment on my reviews come to conclusion that I AM OFFENSIVE ... ????

To criticize insufficiencies in software and negative human response from developer of that particular software is OFFENSIVE ???

Ha ....

The difficulty with pragmatic arguments is that truths do not always "work", and beliefs that "work" are by no means always true.

... and so get focus on your software an make it better then good and you will celebrity ...

NOT1DOLLAR  GarageSale is a excellent program for eBay listings. It is a bit complex at first but, very efficient once you have learned the program. The tech support is excellent with one on one communication with tech support. Support is fast and explained in terms those of us who are not computer experts can clearly understand. The program is well worth the money and seems to get better with every new version.

SODRECORDS  Question. How do you 'make an item from template' like you can do on turbo lister. I'm having trouble doing this on Garage Sale. Instead, my template just gets turned into whatever the last item I entered was. I can't keep raw templates. They just turn into the items. Anyone else have problems with this?

BIBLIO09  This program has been a lifesaver for me. I sell collectible books and am extremely particular about all template details, and the Garage Sale crew has troubleshooted me through everything from the simplest to most complex challenges in record time with record courtesy.

GarageSale is the most flexible, creative, user-friendly and dependable program out there. The team is friendly and responsible, and always open to suggestions and comments.

There was a time when due to computer problems I had no choice but to use a competing online auction lister and it was such a nightmare. What a sigh of relief I breathed to return to GarageSale.

Without hesitation I'd give the program and customer service five stars, and recommend it to all of us who love Mac for its innovative simplicity.

Thanks, iwascoding guys!!!

OMGSHOPS  What a great program. I have noticed others post a problem or two but I have not encountered a single problem like theirs. I am not saying they haven't encountered these issues but I am saying I don't see the same problems. Must be fixed. The key thing is the program is simply incredible and saves money on every auction. Basically its freeware because you save so much in such a little time. Your auctions look professional and you can even make your own templates so it has versatility. I could write so much about how good this has worked for me. The biggest thing for me is the speed I can list auctions. listed 26 separate auctions in a little over 2 hours. I could never do that at ebay and I saved over 50 cents to a dollar per auction. Its freeware now because I have listed almost 70 auctions now and the money saved would buy the program 2 times over.

Get Garage Sale. If you have problems they will help you. Its such a huge deal for my store. Love it!!!!
