I have been looking at marketworks as they look like they would be ble to drive hits to my lisings..but there system is very complicated, and I like yours because it's easy to use

(yeah, i know, you meant II, just playing )

Yes an inventory would be very good indeed.

Please, please add inventory! I tried to make the inventory feature in Ebay's Selling Manager Pro work but that thing is a joke! It takes longer than anything I ever used and it does not make any sense! As to MarketWorks I used it and liked it very much but it has a very corporate look and is expensive. I need an easy to use unexpensive option, as I am simply closing out old inventory.

Pretty please, Inventory!!!

Thanks you,

Vera

Hi Vera -

Like Auctiva David said above - we will be adding Inventory features with our Phase 2 release. Don't you worry 'bout a thing

The anticipated Phase 2 release schedule is the beginning of 2007.

Can you tell me where you are on adding this upgrade? Thank you.

Sweet Success et al -

I should have remembered the rules of Murphy's Law - never give an anticipated date!

Inventory is still in development. It is a project with many implications and impacts for our users and site. We want to make sure that we cover all bases for a successful rollout of such an important feature.

If you stay signed up for Auctiva (and signed up for email notifications), you will receive notice when we add inventory and other features via email.

Thank you for your continued interest and Happy Listing!

Will the inventory feature stay with the Auctiva tradition of being Free?

I see that inventory isn't among the latest crop of new features. I would be happy just to know whether it's more about "inventory management" -- tracking sales and such -- or about a way to list inventory in your store. Descriptions to this point have been so VAGUE. Could someone give me a hint? Pretty please?

Both. It will probably be free.

Thanks, Jeff! I'll keep an eye out for it!

will this be able to take the place of ebay store... and will it be able to be seen on the web? or will we have to drive customers to our store-inventory?

For the last year and a half I have been using auctiva.com for free. But during that time I was never completely happy but kept coming back hoping someday they would get this inventory done. Please just throw something out there simple at first then add to it later. Honestly I am starting to think you are holding back as you stuttered about charging and said "It will probably be free" So you are adding all these not so essential add-ons so when you add you can go in for the kill. Technology is here today and gone tomoroww so hurry up as there will be other solutions like eharbors that will pass you up. Thanks

You've been using a FREE service for a year and a half and you still feel justified in accusing management of manipulating the upgrades so they could "go in for the kill"? as if Auctiva had no "right" to charge for something in the future? - How dastardly of them! A FREE service is our right! Where's my lawyer!

Yeah, I'd honestly rather have something that is working rather than something that was just "thrown out there".

Also, regarding charging for the service, I've said this before - there was a time back in the day when Auctiva members were practically begging Jeff to make it a paid service. So far, he's kept it free.

Dont throw it out there until it is working? Well folks this service is free because they are building it and building a customer base. How could they charge for it? When it is not solid and reliable yet.

I am personally invested in Auctiva as I have a domain and buy insurance plus have many hours learning the program curves. Not to mention building my auctiva. So after waiting patiently for 1.5 years for them to intall even a simple, reliable inventory system is not too much to ask is it?

Honestly would I pay for auctiva right now? NO, because it has not proven itself realiable yet and has no inventory function! Would I in the future? Yes. Do I like auctiva and the format? Yes, for the most part. Will I wait much longer for them to add a inventory funtion? Maybe. Am I happy Auctiva exists? Yes.

To my new Critics, Reality is Auctiva could of tried to charge but would of ended up bankrupt. FACT. Auctiva is a invested company thats vision is long term and offers free to build a customer base. FACT
When Auctiva lays out its biggest add-on Inventory will they charge then? UNKNOWN-As Auctiva said maybe or most likely to be FREE?. FACT

Now my opinion CRITICS out there. Is that Auctiva has had alot of time now to grow and add to its programs but has been ever so sluggish that there is other venues online now that are free and new that are more advance then auctiva.
Example look at **** they are new this year and are building too but they have most all there functions online now except the store funtion for your own website right now. Yes, there is errors and such but it is nice. THEY HAVE INVENTORY. May take a year then could rival Auctiva. Enough said.

Bottom line is that I like Auctiva but they need to get this wrapped up and charge or not charge as I dont care as long as it is affordable and working. I will continue to seek my favorite venue as if I am happy I will stay and be as loyal as I can if it works. Thanks
