Has anyone ever been able to download their sold auctions into a spreadsheet format? I can remember about a year ago when Amazon said they were working on it. I just tried to do it again, and still no luck. Anyone been able to do this?

Perry, what's your magic secret? I have been trying to do it forever, using the links on the "Sold Auctions" page and it has never worked. I have emailed amazon several times and they have never given me reasons why.

sorry, I misread the subject's title. I thought you were talking about the zSops. As far as I know there is no way to download closed auctions to a spread sheet.
Some sellers have discussed copying page after page of the closed auctions into something like wordpad and copying them off but not to a spreadsheet.
Auctions may iventually add the inventory loader like zshops, mabey then.
sorry to get you hopes up.

The link is for auctions as well. I checked an old copy that I had that worked, and it was dated Oct. 99. As for now, all I get are time out messages or Amazon internal error messages. Maybe Amazon will straighten this out one of these days.

The new Zshops reports function is very nice, I see no reason why they can't implement that also for the auctions. According to one of my numerous responses from their email support, there are no plans to do so.
In response to one complaint, they somehow created an ms excel file and emailed it to me, and seemed happy to do so, but it took about 2 weeks to get it. This could be an option if you don't need the data soon.
For now I have just been cutting and pasting from email into ms excel, but that is getting really old really fast. If anything drives me to start using Andale or AW services, this will be it.

I've "downloaded" my open auctions to a spreadsheet. I manually cut and pasted page after page, deleted all the junk I didn't need, and then pasted into Excel. It took me about a day to get 900+ auctions over and copied and sorted. What a nightmare but what choice did I have since AMAZON DOESN'T PROVIDE REPORTS FOR AUCTION SELLERS!!!!
