Hi, all. I know this must have been asked a million times, but is it possible to use AuctionWatch to put auctions into eBay Motors? I have a bunch of parts and ... ta-da! ... a *firetruck* to sell! Any help and comments would be appreciated. Thanks. Marshall

Hi Carguy323,
The eBay automotive categories are currently beyond the scope of Auction Manager due to the fact that Ebay Motors is configured as a completely separate site. Our system has not yet been optimized to launch auctions directly to the eBay Motors site, but our engineering group is working on incorporating it as quickly as possible.
To use our services in conjunction with eBay Motors, you can utilize our legacy Image Hosting system and Old counter system. The old image hosting page can be accessed by following these steps:
-click on the Auction Manager tab
-click on the "Image hosting" link (this brings you to the new image hosting page)
-click on the "click here" link on the left hand navigation bar (this brings you to the old image hosting page)
From here, select the image you wish to attach and then click on the "attach image" button. On the next page, select "other auction site" from the drop down menu. You will then be brought to a page which contains the HTML code for your images. Copy and paste this block of HTML into Ebay Motor's item description box.
For the Old counter system, this can be accessed by clicking the "counter link" located on the left hand navigation bar of the Old image hosting page. From here, click on the "Add a new counter" button and follow the copy and paste steps which is very similar to the attach image process.
