Have used several competitors along the years (Vienna, NetNewsWire to name some), this one is the only one that doesn't get bloated, works steadily and is a pleasure to use and read through. Previously I had to change my RSS client every 6 months, with Shrook I haven't looked back for 2 years!
Bad network and credentials implementation.
After clicking login this application first tries to connect to xml.myibay.com then to ssl.google-analytics.com if you block these it stops here with a "network error" dialog panel.
Even worst, this app never connects directly to ebay to authenticate an user, letting a third party handling your ebay credentials.
I understand this app uses the myibay.com services to bid without needing a computer running at the time of the bid but then what the point of this app?
