Has anyone had any success in installing Human Click into their Yahoo Auctions, and if so how? I can't get the messenger to work in my auctions, it always says I'm off line. I have checked all the settings and they seem fine. I used HC in my Ebay auctions and really liked it. It's just to bad I have to go to Yahoo because I was going broke on Ebay. This way it doesn't cost me when I'm not selling and believe me I'm Not Selling! I have 20 items listed and just relisted 6 still waiting for my 1st bid. I don't think featuring is the answer either, as I don't have high ticket items.

Any input would be appreciated.

I do not know how to get Human click into a Yahoo auction, but by and large Yahoo users are savvy to the net and not going to appreciate the invasion of privacy aka human click. I am not meaning to be rude, this is just my beleif.

Sorry you feel that way, but wouldn't even be asking if I could get Yahoo to respond to my why Messenger won't work for me in my auctions.

Did you try asking at the messenger "expert" page? That is probably your best bet to get an answer you can use.
Good luck.

and I had another idea..
Go to Yahoo 'sellerzone" club (I am not allowed to link it) and ask one of the people with their light on why theirs is and yours isn't.
It has got to be a simple fix.

I tried the expert thing and not doing very well there. I had one answer that did not pertain to the prob. and wrote back and haven't heard from them since. Just wrote them again this morning. I'll try your seller zone and see what happens. Don't know why I care, nothing is selling anyway.

Thanks

Why would you want Human clicks in your yahoo auctions messanger is built right in to each auction it works well messanger also notifys you as you get bids and as items close.

human clicks requires down loading more programs to run on your computer and more links and work in your listings.

To Dman:

That's the problem I can't get messenger to work in my auctions and have tried just about everything. Everything is checked or unchecked the way it's suppose to be. I open to suggestions. It always says I'm offline when I'm not.

ok now to sell this stuff now that you got messanger working just go to ebay.com and register to sell then list your item <Jokeing>


To sell On yahoo a simple listing state as much as you can about the item and start bidding at what you willing to sell for NO $1 or penny starting bids and a buy price also helps.

feature a few of your best Items two or three days before they close the more veiws the better chance they will sell, and as a new seller with little feed back all your Items will be one the bottom of the pile fetureing gets you on top near the end of your sale for least cost.

dont worry on yahoo about fancy colors and templets Yahoo they just go for honest clear listings.

It is not possible to use Humanclick in Yahoo auctions. This is because Yahoo does not allow javascript in auction text. This is a good thing.

Even though I'm a fan of Humanclick, I still think that it is outrageous that Ebay allows javascript. The potential for abuse is huge. For example, if you access an auction that uses Humanclick (or many other javascript programs) from My Ebay, it is possible for the seller to get access to your My Ebay page.

Of how about this one -- using javascript, you can easily change an auctions description, even after bids have been received, and even after the auction is over.

Or maybe getting a virus from an auction? I heard that there was recently an auction on Ebay that contained the KAK virus. It's certainly possible, but only if you allow javascript within the auction. How nice.

Yahoo is definately the leader on this one once again.
