Listing programs, Auctiva - List and Send - Turbo Lister

[pickapresent13]

List and Send, Auctiva, Turbo Lister, which do you use, and what seems to be the best ? Quick rundown on what I do, trading cards mainly at the moment, but shortly licensed products as well, like coffee mugs, nrl - afl - movie/music merchandise, and posters. Will be re-listing/Good Til Cancelled alot of items as they will constantly be selling.

Thanks in advance to everyone who helps out here

A lot of people use Auctiva however I don't, and won't. I would much rather use a template building site so my listing is completely individual, it is also free if used in conjunction with turbo lister and a free photo hosting site if you want pics in your listing.

I actually pay $8 a month for unlimited hosting of my photos and descriptions with robshelp.com but you can use the template building site free and store up to 10 templates.

If you do decide to go with Auctiva please keep in mind that although sellers appear to love it a lot of buyers hate the DSG (dreadful scrolling gallery) or at least put it at the bottom of the page if you must use it. many of us hit the back button if it is up the top without waiting for the rest of the listng to appear. There are also a great number of extra emails sent out by /auctiva unless you turn them off, another thing a lot of buyers hate, i am wanting an item, not a penfriend lol.

Turbo Lister.

tried Auctiva, was IMHO pretty terrible. Spammed my listings with stuff that only worked half the time.

So yeh Turbo Lister has always worked well and easilly for me.

Escpecially if you know a little HTML, you can make your page elsewhere then just copy and past and adjust as needed.

for about ten dollars a month I use INKFROG.com they have hundreds of templates to choose from, store all your photos in Albums and allow you to set up your own 'library' of listings, with your own title so you just need to pick 'Hawks Mug' or whatever to relist.
