I was told it's full of bugs, you might want to hold off on using it?

Seller's Assistant is the follow-on product line for Blackthorne's Auction Assistant. And it IS very buggy- Blackthorne is releasing patches almost daily to fix problems that users are complaining about.
Previous versions of AA were buggy as well, and Blackthorne has a history of releasing products before they were well beta-tested.

Problems with eBays Sellers Assistant
Blackthorne's history of customer service is poor and eBay is carrying on the same tradition of non-responsiveness.

I really fail to see what AW is using as the criteria for acceptable posts. Why can we talk about this software...but no other???
Management needs to acquire a brain...anybody's brain...post haste. Don't they care that they are perceived as total idiots?

Toke..criteria? How about..."we will leave any post that puts ebay's SA in a bad light and kill any post that puts our (AW)listing tools in a bad light"

eBay has always had delayed listings . . .it was called Misterlister.
You loaded up your batch, and waited, waited, and waited some more.
This new software, I'm sure, will support the same feature.

No shame, I guess...

Amy: I'm pretty sure that Aw's new policy is (.............)! Therefore, it behooves (just LOVE that word!) all us posters to make sure that we remember to (>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> !
That way, even though AW ($$$$$$$$$$$)'s the big (^^^^^^^^^^^^), there is NO way that they can (***************)!
As Milhous used to say "Let me say this about that."

I tried to download the "pro" version and using a state of the art computer (although I was using a dial-up modem), it was projecting over 5 hours for download. Also interesting (unless I missed it) that there is no bulk-relisting tool. I suspect that since ebay has already made relisting (as well as revising) auctions a painstaking process (as in, it takes a lot longer than any other ebay "functionality" , they won't bring in an auction-management partner that would make this process quicker.
I am going to continue using MisterLister until it's no longer supported as I have had little problem with it. I'm dealing with Auctiva/Ebud for everything else. Especially since they have given me no problem since the "email fix".
Anybody that knows of a better all-inclusive auction-management software that is not web-based, please let me know.
