    "Spectacular program!"

    January 1, 2011  |   By CLSmeed

    Version: GarageSale 6.0.8

    Pros

    Ease of use, convenience of preparing and uploading auctions to eBay, great report generation, gorgeous templates (and lots of them!), excellent tech support, Yahoo group to share info, ideas, etc., very inexpensive!

    Cons

    There is nothing I have found that I do not like about this program.

    Summary

    I have been using GarageSale for several years for creating and listing professional-looking eBay auctions. It has paid for itself over and over. I have tried all the listing programs and GarageSale is truly the best. It is the easiest and most intuitive of the listing programs and is the most comprehensive allowing you to do everything from GarageSale so you don't even have to go to the eBay website. The tech support is excellent which is a definite pro. There is also a great Yahoo group forum of friendly GarageSale users for exchanging ideas and generally helping each other. GarageSale has saved me a lot of time, energy, and sanity!

    "Brilliant app for ebay auctions"

    November 4, 2010  |  

    Version: GarageSale 6.0.7

    Pros

    I love the templates. They're soooo much better than what ebay gives you.

    Cons

    I've recently moved from ebay to Ebid. Shame there's no version for them. Come on Iwascoding. You can do it.

    Summary

    If you do a lot of auctioning on ebay, then this is the best app that can help you spruce up your auction listings. Forget what ebay itself offers, this is brill. Makes your auctions stand out from the rest.

    "Good app. Just don't upgrade, or it'll cost you again"

    September 21, 2010  |   By roe999

    Version: GarageSale 6.0.5

    Pros

    I did like it - and used it for years. I was sucked into an upgrade without being warned it would cost another $40.

    Cons

    I was sucked into an upgrade without being warned it would cost another $40. I upgraded earlier - THAT cost me $40. How many times do they want my money?

    Summary

    I did like the product, until I was sucked into an upgrade without being warned it would cost another $40.

    These guys should warn you that they're about to fleece you.

    "Infuriating formatting bug"

    March 25, 2010  |   By Bimmicus

    Version: GarageSale 5.4b8

    Summary

    This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
    Can't recall if this was true of earlier versions, but since I started using v5 I have noticed a profoundly annoying and recurrent bug; any template, at any time, may not just lose ALL its text formatting but the ability to reapply any style changes, requiring that one resume work from a duplicate template (if you thought to save one) or start over from scratch (if you didn't). This seems to happen most frequently when adding an image or changing text in the editor, but just about anything can set it off apparently.

    This, coupled with the always-on autosave (seriously, who thought this was a good idea?) and uninformative handling of eBay error messages makes this otherwise handy tool something of a headache to use.

    "Works very well"

    November 10, 2009  |   By JimBob88--2008

    Version: GarageSale 5.3.7

    Summary

    This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
    I've recently updated to 5.3.7 and found it to be very good. It seems more user friendly than the last version and very stable.

    The last version was good too but you had to click a few more times to check things out and sometime your images didn't align the way you wanted them to.

    I saw this more as quirks than problems and they've been cleared up. Very nice.

    "Best money I've ever spent on software!"

    February 17, 2009  |   By joemit1

    Version: GarageSale 5.2

    Summary

    This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
    This program is worth every penny of its $35 price tag. Makes auction listings easy whether its one auction or 50 auctions. Ran into a few problems when I first purchased and the tech support is accurate and prompt. Creates a much more decorative auction than I would have time for on my own and I've made my purchase price back a hundred time because of sales using Garage Sale. I really can't say enough good about the program and its developers.

    "OMGshops says OMG!! Love this program!!!"

    December 3, 2008  |   By OMGshops

    Version: GarageSale 5.1.3

    Summary

    This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
    What a great program. The key thing is the program is simply incredible and saves money on every auction. Basically its freeware because you save so much in such a little time. Your auctions look professional and you can even make your own templates so it has versatility. I could write so much about how good this has worked for me. The biggest thing for me is the speed I can list auctions. listed 26 separate auctions in a little over 2 hours. I could never do that at ebay and I saved over 50 cents to a dollar per auction. Its freeware now because I have listed almost 70 auctions now and the money saved would buy the program 2 times over.

    Get Garage Sale. If you have problems they will help you. Its such a huge deal for my store. Love it!!!!

    "praise long overdue"

    October 5, 2008  |   By joemit1

    Version: GarageSale 5.0.3

    Summary

    This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
    I bought my first computer in 1983 and rarely since that time have I purchased software that provided so much value for the price. Garage sale works flawlessly. If there is a problem, the online support has been impeccable. I have consistently received a reply to any question in the two years I've been using the program within 24 hours. Often the reply comes within a few hours and has always remedied my problem (usually an I-D 10 T error). Anyone who lists a lot of auctions will find that they reccover the cost of the program in just a few days as the image hosting service significantly decreases the cost of listings. The many templates offered really dress up your listings too. I'm usually a cynic when it comes to software and few programs get my full approval but this is one of the few. Don't miss out on this program!
