CONSIGNMENT SHOP Functionality...
I am an eBay Trading Assistant working my way towards my own "brick and mortar" Trading Post and REALLY REALLY REALLY need a good Consignment software program. Anyone have any suggestions? Will Auctiva ever get that far in their "updates and programming" and offer that service? And if so, will it be DEPENDABLE??? No offense, but I can't afford all this down-time due to "system updates". I just received some trial software from EZlister.com and will be trying it out this weekend. Anyone have...

Constant Lack Of Response From Auctiva
I have been using Auctiva since around 2010. I can't believe how terrible the service has become. If I need to resolve an issue, forget trying to contact Auctiva! They are so frustrating...I filed a support case because of template issues and still haven't heard anything. This has become the norm for the past 2 years. Why has the customer service become so aweful? Auctiva used to be a fabulous program but, lately I am completely frustrated and have started looking for an alternative to...

Contact Us Page
1. How do I create a email link on this page. E.g. my email address would be a link that if the user had an email program on their computer the link would open it up with the To: filled in. 2. When I set up the contact page, it has an option to "Include "Please add me to your Mailing List" in email form. What email form, and how does this work.

Can I upload images to my domain using an FTP program like Filezilla
I purchased a domain name today and have tried using Filezilla to set up my directories but I can't seem to connect. While Auctiva's 300x400 default is okay I usually use 450x600. Also I spend a lot of time on my pics in Photoshop and I like to be the last one who processes them. I'm also looking to upload a couple of modest web pages now that I have my own domain (I'm so excited!) .

Calculated Shipping includes Insurance?
Hi, I am a longtime Ebay seller, but new to Auctiva. One of the nice things about Ebay's calculated shipping is that it includes my mandatory insurance cost (USPS) based on the current price of the auction. I have signed up for Auctiva's Insurance program. I suspect that the calculated shipping charges shown do not include insurance. I tell my customers that insurance is required but it is included in the calculated shipping. They may be upset if they have to pay an additional charge after...

Changing Template of Active Listing
I've seen several old posts saying that the only way to change a listings template is to change it in the Saved listing, get the HTML code and then copy+paste into the active listing html editor on the eBay site. For us, this isn't going to work very well and it doesn't seem like a very efficient use of our time, with around 1,500 items that would need changed... Is there an easier way of doing this or are there plans to implement a better editing tool for live listings in the future? We...

Hello Everyone, I just caught the end of a radio porgram about ebay. The person was talking about a program called TED that would track all misspelled or mis-category listings. For example Liz Claiborne might be spelled Clayborne or Claiborn, you get the picture. It would then give you the item #. Has anyone heard of any type of software program??

Insurance option
I am new at this Forum. I don’t understand why Auctiva does not offer the option of listing insurance options for both Domestic and International insurance. It is costing me plenty on insurance that I have to pay. Everybody knows that domestic and international insurance fees are different, so why list them at the same rate, and not give the option of listing both. I have looked on the Message Board, and I have seen a few people with the same concern, but no answers. Ebay has gotten stricter...

How to Speed up Auctiva
Go to www.firefox.com and download their program. It works just like Internet Explorer. Nothing new to learn. Select the regular download, not the eBay download. When it finishes, type in the Auctiva website. The first time you use it, it will take time to show the welcome screen and your listings because Firefox needs to collect the data. After that it will connect very fast. You'll be amazed at how much faster Auctiva will be. Each page will load a lot faster and you can schedule or post...

Auctiva/IE stops responding at save after uploading photos
I've just begun using Auctiva this week in earnest. Thought I had the hang of it after successfully listing 2 items. However, on the 3rd item I'm attempting to list, it seems like every time after I upload photos it locks up Auctiva/IE XP SP2. I've tried a few different things after uploading photos: 1) clicking to select a template; new window popped up but no info ever appeared, and eventually it said "not responding," and when I do CTL ALT DEL and tell it to end program it also exits IE.

Boring theme selections
This suggestion may seem a bit superficial compared to other posts I have read regarding problems that need fixing; however, I would like to suggest that Auctiva provide new themes for use in our auctions. The established themes are nice but are a little played out and the section where it says "download other themes" does not provide very much selection either. Presentation is a considerable feature in any auction and the addition of new updated themes would be a welcome enhancement to your...

Auctiva Vs.Turbo Lister (Per eBay Agent)
Good Evening All! I am by no means a seasoned veteran with forums, listing product on eBay, but I am a quick study.
