Sellathon?

Ok..here's the thread.
https://community.auctiva.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/8556093...121085671#6121085671

I think it's well worth every penny a seller would spend on it.

Try it for your free 30 day trial.

We're in the lull time for eBay selling, summer months have always been slow. I would consider signing up now and playing with it for 30 days before the big selling days of eBay start.

I placed a link on the thread above and copied and pasted some info from the site, too.

My Best,
Donna

Thank you so very much Donna!

I'll sure check into it and hopefully will find benefit!

Don't forget to check your email (junk folders, spam folders) for emails from Auctiva when you first sign up for our service. We send one email that tells you all about Sellathon and also give you your Sellathon username and password and a link to your Sellathon account.

If for some reason, you never saw this email, file a support request (link at the bottom of the Help page) and our support team will help you.

Take care -

I saw on the auctiva home page that all sellers tools are free...what is the fee for this sellathon counter...

This Sellathon is showing up in my auctions and anyone can click on the link and see how many hits my items are getting, which items have snipes set up and which are being watched. I know that because I logged out of everything and was still able to view that information. I don't think I'm comfortable with that. I thought it was to be for the seller's use, not for everyone pokin' around on eBay.

Are you sure it's not just tied to your IP address or something? So that you can view it whether you're logged in or not?

I really don't know, just curious. If you can see all the info from someone else's computer then I guess we'll know for sure.

There are two different types of sellathon counters..

One with basic stats..Free

One with all the bells and whistles..free trial of 30 days with your Auctiva membership and after that the price varies.

Rick,

I think since the info might have already been in her cache, history, temp files..she could see it even if she were logged out.

If after cleaning your computer out and rebooting, you still have this issue...

I'd get with Crissie (sp)over at Sellathon in Customer Service, she's a doll and goes above board to help.

They also have a great community board that answers alot of questions and has stickies on threads with walk-throughs.

Thanks. I did check with them and basically they said that yes, anyone could see the information because I'm using the free counter. I didn't realize that using the free counter with Auctiva, would place that kind of information in my auction listings and honestly, it bothers me that I can't remove it now because the auction has a bid!

I don't like it that someone can tell how many people are watching my auction or have set snipes. I feel "naked."

Can you give me the link to this and tell me how to do it. I can't imagine I or anyone else can see how many watchers you have or if there are snipers without logging into your Sellathon account. Hits yes, but not watchers or snipers. The number of hits of course can be seen right in the counter without leaving the eBay page.

There's probably a cookie on your computer that automatically pulls that information up for YOU, and not anyone else. Like Jeff said, give someone a link to the page and see if they can get the same information coming in from a blind computer...

Hi again.

I just looked at my auction from another computer and could still see the info. The link actually says:

Click here to see my other items, ranked by popularity.

And there are links that you can click on to see various information. I removed the link from two of my auctions, so there's no information on them available, which sort of looks even worse...?

I was able to see the history of bidder's and their id's, which could be a situation for spamming for similar auctions from other seller's....

But you could also see all the other things I mentioned too, right?

yes...sorry, forgot to mention that....

This is what I see:

It's not as detailed as I was imagining but, yep, it's definitely info I wouldn't want others to be able to see...

That's very surprising.

Is it possible that it's just a downside of the free trial period?

I get two different pages at various times when I click my own sellathon link (I'm a subscriber).

One is the screen you guys are seeing, the other is like a "Hey, come join sellathon" ad page wherein nothing re: my auctions can be seen unless I log in.

I've NEVER seen a bidder's list (either logged in or not), though. That's definately disturbing...something like that, if it's true, would lose sellathon my business.

Well, I can't see where to see the bid history or bidders' IDs but you can see that stuff on eBay anyway in the actual listing.

However, what I can see (when clicking on glitzytreasures' counter) is how many snipes, watches and unique visits each of her items has. That's a bit disturbing.
