First of all I only enroled on Auctiva tonight so I have a lot to learn and can I start by saying what a GREAT idea it is and it's all free so what can I lose.
Well ......... time is the most precious commodity and I have a similar problem with Auctiva as I used to have with Microsoft a few years ago. It is totally US centric and although I have logged in as an Ebay UK user it continually prompts me for eveything for the US. E.g I have to change all memus to UK everytime I want to add or change something. It lists items at US Pacific Times. It shows up the saved listing in US dollars.
As I have not yet successfully been able to schedule an item yet (although I have been trying for 2 hours) I can't tell whether it converts everything to Ebay UK standards or not.
To make this a success internationally you have to think internationally. Main one:If I log in from a UK ID I should be recognised as a UK user, I should be able to price in £UKPounds and my listing should be GMT.
There are other things that concern me but I won't go on about those until I have tested them properly, but just to note that I started from scratch and the "item details" mentioned in another thread were not offered to me (which may be why Ebay is not accepting my ad).
I still think it's a GREAT idea but for tomorrow's listings I am going to have to go back to Turbo Lister.
