Hi All -
I'm looking at Auction Management software (both web-based and home-based) for sellers, and am wondering which of them supports the most off-eBay sites?
Many of them support eBay, Amazon and Yahoo. Is there any that will also post auctions to the smaller sites like SellYourItem, BidVille, ePier, eHammer, etc?

AuctionTamer supports management of eBay, Yahoo, Amazon and Bidville auctions. SellYourItem is also supposed to be getting close to being compatible as well.
It is a good stand-alone program and is very configurable. I purchased a key for it after only using it for a week. Plus the creator is really responsive to suggestions and fixes problems quickly.

Thanks magik87
I did check out Auction Tamer and, as far as I can tell they are compatible with the most amount of sites. They've recently added JustBeads, and when I wrote and asked them about SYI, they said:

SellYourItem is coming and almost done for the selling features except posting. We were unable to get their Sell Item form to work at this time and we will need to work further with them to become fully compatible.[/quote]
(BTW, I did ask AW if it was OK to post this question, since they do have an auction management tool also, and was told it was OK to discuss as long as it didn't become promotional.)

Well I think this is a great thing. I have said this to a couple of the new sites they need to get software to support them for launching auctions. SYI has their own bulk loader which is why I listed there. Carnaby had their own loader which helps. 321 Gone even has a bulk loader. The ones that can implement into existing packages like AT I think would have more to gain.
Glad to hear the news on SYI.

I have used AuctionTamer since their beginning and LOVE IT - EXCELLENT Customer Support, Great system, wouldn't use any other!
I do have eBud from the past, but don't use it as AuctionTamer is SO MUCH better, and the folks at AuctionTamer are so great to work with.
To get Auction Tamer, just put in www.auctiontamer.com

I think AuctionTamer is also working on being able to post auctions to Yahoo (for those of you who are able to sell successfully there).

I would SO love to be able to keep all my auction ads in one place and just send them out to different small sites from there. Kind of like an Auction Circuit. If it were easier to switch them out, I wouldn't have the same things at the same sites rolling around in relist week after week. Yeah, I'm lazy, I know
