BEWARE Auctionbytes Article China Buyers
Auctionbytes has an article that is VERY important for you to read. This happened to me last year. http://auctionbytes.com/cab/abn/y06/m05/i03/s01 DO NOT SHRUG THIS ARTICLE OFF! It was a nightmare and lasted close to 3 months with my Asian invaders. They bid and wouldn't pay, so I filed NPB. Once I did that they went banana's stating they would ruin my online business if I didn't lift the NPB. Well, <shrug> I didn't think anything about it. WRONG! This began a long nightmare of selling...

Blocking bidders who don't have a PAYPAL ACCOUNT....
In ebay's Sell Your Item form you can block bidders who do not have a Paypal Account by checking a box. Is there any way to do that in Auctiva or does each listing need to be revised individually after listing with Auctiva? Thanks so much, Zona

Bookhound/Auctiva
I am selling books on ABE, Amazon etc under Art of Books. Have a website and also sell on EBay separate from AOB. It is onerous to keep track of everything on three different sites so I have decided to use Bookhound as inventory control over EBay, website, Amazon etc which AOB accepts. And just have everything in one place. Question is, I also have my books on Auctiva to save on picture fees on EBay. Will I be able to download?

Brand new to selling and to Auctiva - in need of help
Hi, I'm a brand new to selling and to Auctiva. I signed up with Auctiva a few weeks ago but have not listed any items yet. I am a little confused on several issues and would appreciate some help. - How has Auctiva insurance been received by your buyers as opposed to USPS insurance. Have buyers seemed to mind that you as a seller have "made money" on them purchasing the insurance? - How quickly does Auctiva insurance handle its claims? - If a claim does need to be filed, do you as they seller...

Auctiva appending to custom template
I use a custom template, a very basic and clean layout since unfortunately many of the templates look like they were designed in the early '90's. One issue is the image tag doesn't seem to work, the code is there, and it worked when I saved and previewed but doesn't show on active listings. The other issue is I have the following appended to my listings: This wasn't in the preview of the editor, is the extra blurb from the counter perhaps? Thanks in advance.

Auto launch new auction when one is sold ?
HI- I am new here after being with Inkfrog for 5 years. Through Inkfrog I had the ability to acto-launch my items - I list certain items that when one sells I have another item just like it launch. Does Auctiva have this feature or do I manually have to launch a new auction everytime one of my books sell? I only sell one at a time on ebay, and like that when one sells another new auction just like it is launched. Thanks in advance- LoViNg Auctiva so far! Mango

Auto-Relist has delay in schedule after auction end
I've been having this problem for the past couple of weeks. Once my weekly auctions end I have an auto-relist profile to relist 30 minutes after auction is ended if the item did not sell. Most of my items end at 5pm PST on Sunday's and it doesn't seem to schedule the auto-relist until 6:30-7:30pm PST or later. When it first happened I figured it would be fixed shortly, but as I said it is happening every week now.

Auto Relist Problems are out of control and costing us alot!!!

Automatically Insert Title in Description?
I've heard other sellers talk about the convenience of having Auctiva automatically insert their listing title in the top of their description. No matter what I try I can't get that to work. I don't use a template as I like to use the sell similar from saved listings of each type of item I sell but would want to place the auto-title at the top of my descriptions to save the step of copy and pasting it each time. how do I accomplish this?

Are you allowed to create a 'reserved' auction listing in eBay?
Hi, I have some colleagues and friends who have requested specific jewellery commissions from me. They are happy to buy through eBay as it will help me boost my fledgling feedback score. Unfortunately I am just starting out and have less than 5 feedbacks so I cannot list items as 'Buy It Now'.

Auctiva Store Proposal
Take the store we now have with Auctiva, convert it to our own free-standing store, place restrictions on products listed (number, types - Only list those products that we would ordinarily sell in our eBay store.)

They are attempting to adjust revenue levels on the backs of store operators. I would like to have an Auctiva store where I could...

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.

However, this is not my reason for posting, but I thought I would voice my opinion. I recently listed about 25 items through Auctiva and thought ok this was relatively easily once the master templates were made and all content...

AUCTIVA when will Item Specifics be update???
Just checking to see when the item specifics will be updated to match eBay's? Most of the time all I get is the New option, I sell vintage items so this does not apply most of the time. With the upcoming changes this will significantly affect items showing up in Best Match. It is time consuming to have to go to eBay and update all this info and would be wonderful to have this fully functional on this site. Any chance this will be implemented in all categories on Auctive soon ?

Auto deletion. Why is this still not addressed?
Hello, Is there a way to delete images from image hosting when I delete a listing? Deletion wizard does not support this option. All of our listings are one of a kind. Many of our listings that do not sell we like to keep for relist at a later date maybe next year or in 3 months ect. so just because it is inactive does not mean we want to delete it. It seems like a check box to delete all images associated with a listing when you go to delete a listing would be pretty easy for you to add. As...
