Well, now that eBud has morphed into eBiteMe, I'm in the process of dumping any association with Auctiva, including their Showcase!
I considered going back to my HTML eBay gallery, but didn't like the SLOWNESS of items showing (sometimes not after even 24 hours!).
Then I remembered somebody talking about:
MY AUCTION GALLERY
Boy, is this a classy tool! Your pictures are LARGE & CLEAR & ALL your items are on 1 page!
MY OBSERVATIONS so far:
PROS:
Looks VERY classy & neat!
Updates instantly (you do it!)
Customizable colors!
Nice buttons for your auctions
SUPERIOR CUSTOMER SERVICE! -- the owner, Steve Burosco (sp?) is EXTREMLY helpful & quick with advice!
CONS:
It's NOT FREE -- Steve requests a monthly donation via PayPal
YOU must update it (very easily) after you launch new auctions.
& it is eBay ONLY!
I don't know if I can post the URL for it so, if anybody is interested in getting their own "MY AUCTION GALLERY", just email me at:
BTW: of course I'm NOT affiliated with them nor do I get any kickbacks (don't I wish!) from them -- just thought folks would be interested in this NEATO TOOL!

Sounds nice for you Tom, but I have nothing to do with anything that has anything to do with Paypal. Thanks for the info though.

Tom,
first of all it's not ebay only? I use it with ebay and Amazon auctions and z-shops and marketplace.
Very classy and quick as it takes moments to import them all.
My problem (which customer service is not returning my emails or fixing...) is that the items in Marketplace and z-shops never end in auctiva. Oh yes they sold closed etc 2 months ago (Christmas time) but not according to my gallery????
Looks dumb, and unproffesional. I have 175 buy now items listed and really I have about 10 active.
There are some really good free things that are on the internet.
One good example that I did like was the pagoo internet phone number (not in service anymore) But I really did enjoy the service while it lasted.
Now I use dialpad. It sure does save on my long distance.
I can say, paypal was free for a while. It was good while it lasted. However, can people say in business if they just give the service away. There have been several companies that have done this and are not in business today.
I know, I could not give out my product for free.
-Trey
