ANTONYH  I take it back re: the plain text - it is possible, just not obvious.

ANTONYH  I got this as a part of the macheist bundle, and I've only just decided to try it. Aside from the amount of information that has to be given to activate it (which others have already commented on), I cannot recommend this application.

It DOES NOT WORK in the United Kingdom. It fails to find my existing auctions. It fails to load the categories from eBay UK.

Deleting the two demo auctions doesn't remove them unless you add a new auction.

The dashboard widget doesn't find my auctions either.

There's no 'plain' template. Believe it or not, I don't like all the 'stationary', I just want to be able to list with plain text, and track my auctions.

Has anyone else had these problems?

JEREMYAN  It is useful. But extremely slow. Please tune up the performance.

KRISTINE_NX  I also like this app -but- the inability to revise a running auction, and issues with FTP'ing pictures to sites hosted on shared/grid (i.e., mediatemple) servers is what lead me to delete this app and go with its competitor. When isale can revise a running auction I might reinstall it.

M. LUTHER  Don't know why so many people are complaining about this app. It has a decent amount of templates. I pick one for the classification of items I mostly sell and it looks great. I even had someone contact me asking what program I use to create my ads since they look so professional. I believe my auctions are ending higher now than prior to using the program.

I ran into one problem last night where iSale kept getting stuck on "uploading to ebay." I tried numerous fixes, none of which worked. I decided to try to delete some of the photos in my FTP space (only 10MB of space), and now iSale is working flawlessly, so apparently that was full. Too bad the program couldn't have let me know this was the problem, as I wasted 30 minutes troubleshooting that I could have spent posting auctions. Also, sometimes when I click the upload/post button, iSale sits there and fails to upload to ebay, but when I click it a second time it will work.

Overall, I am happy with iSale and am continuing to use it to post my auctions. I would recommend it to anyone interested. The area where iSale saves me the most amount of time is in photo management; resizing and uploading photos to my FTP space -- iSale does it automatically where I had to do it manually before. I hate taking the time to post stuff on ebay, and iSale helps to make the whole process go a little quicker.

JIBBAROO  Doesn't play well with Spaces. Unusable with Safari 4 Final with Leopard. The pages it creates are often very awkward.

I really wish I would have gone with GarageSale instead.

BEASTMAN  Got it recently as part of a MacHeist bundle. Tried it and deleted every trace of it from my sysem. It's buggy (from crashes to weird copy paste behaviour), and inflexible. I had trouble getting past a warning (which wasn't really a problem - just telling me about Canadian government possible recalls). No problem with the same warning in GarageSale. Many of the templates are amateurish, and can't be easily edited. GarageSale works much better for me. Will likely never bother with this program again. I'm usually not so harsh, but this software is not for me.

CMFNYC  I like iSale overall. It is feature-rich, easy to use, and deliver good looking eBay auctions. It certainly beats the alternative of crafting sale pages on your own. I cannot speak to other software. I posted three auctions and have bids right away. When I posted similar ones before iSale, some of them went unsold. That's the biggest plus for me. As for what others are saying. For me, I don't mind the badge. I don't mind advertising the product, if it does me a good turn. But I think you should be able to turn it off for those who don't like it.

I do have one big criticism...you cannot edit running auctions. So make sure everything is perfect before posting. The devs should really fix this. All in all, I am happy with the purchase.

MACGEEK19  This app is brimming with potential but has to be the most buggy software I have seen. Constant crashes, selecting auctions sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. This app is awful. I wish I could use it. It just doesnt work.

XPLICIT  I understand the necessity of activating a software via internet (you all know why) and I've made my peace with that. But why do I need an account on the software developers website - in this case a so called equinux ID - to get a software activated I legally purchased?

They state "Note: All data is transferred using secure connections." Fine, but what if I don't want to expose any data? I don't want to give them any personal data because they don't really need it. I don't want to make any of my auctions traceable by equinux, I don't want my auctions to be connected to an equinux server, I don't like even the mere possibility. I simply want a programme that helps me with setting up ebay auctions!

There comes a lot of "forcing" with this app. The developers force their users

- to have a badge with every auction

- to provide an eMail address for downloading updates

- to get like bare naked in a personal-data sense

and who knows what else.

There's no fun in using this app.

I'm also missing hint that using subtitles creates additional costs.

And this app is SLOW. Just try changing auctions, or setting up a new auction, or ... .

Although I have a regular licence I guess I'm not going to use iSale.

ANONYMOUS  Hey xplicit!

Thank you for your comments!

The equinux ID is just intended as a convenience for customers: You don't need to worry about losing a long complicated activation code. To use your license all you need is your username and password and you're all set - no codes, no fuss.

The background templates you see in your auction are hosted by equinux servers (otherwise eBay would charge you a fee for them), which is the only connection your auction will ever have to us. You can download updates directly within the application without an email or any other data.

We're take our customer's privacy extremely seriously, so I hope this helps to clear things up! If you have more questions, please feel free to let us know! (equinux.com/support)

Best,

equinux Support Team
