Just wondering what you thought of it?
Answer
I'm currently using it and I like it ok. There are some glitches and such, but it is free and includes free image hosting. You can't beat the price!
Answer
Auctiva is free? I had no idea, LOL. How much better is it than Turbo Lister?
Answer
Yeah...I started using it and just wanted to make sure others had tried it........I dont know how they can have that for free but I like it and the templates are really nice...i just want to make sure that if i list a lot with it that the website doesnt go down a lot of that there aren't any glitches.
I like it MUCH better than turbo lister so far.
Answer
Cool, I'm going to give it a shot. I'm tired of boring listings with Turbo Lister I never get around to trying to make my own templates, some of the templates on Auctiva do look nice. I wondered how it could be free as well but it seems to me it's this insurance thing that makes their money for them. From what I can see, it seems just re-sell U-PIC insurance for a higher price?
Anyway, I've wondered too what their up-time is like. Has anyone that uses Auctiva noticed much down time with them?
They added a gallery thing to my current listings which is kinda neat. But I've noticed one glitch already. One of listings that has a bid it shows "0" bids... hmmmm...
Edited to add: I currently use Turbo Lister to create listings, Photobucket to host images, and Andale counters... LOL... It would be a lot easier to have everything in the same place... and still free...
Answer
I've used auctive for a few months now. The only part of it i use is the gallery thing. havent even been to their website in awhile. once i got the code to insert the gallery into my template i havent needed to go back to their website. I didnt realize they have free image hosting, but i dont need that because i get that free with aol.
whether the gallery actually works to bring in more traffic, i have no idea but as long as its free its staying in my listings.
Answer
The free Auctiva doesn't include post sale functions, yet! They are going to roll out a new version with post sale functions, not sure when, and also not sure it will continue to be free.
I originally went with them because:
- Free
- Free Image Hosting
- Free scheduling
Since I am not running a lot of auctions I am doing the rest manually, using MyeBay to track payments, etc.
Answer
Just a note to those who use the gallery thing-in my browsing I've noticed it tends to hang up the auction, sometimes to the point the auction pics themselves do not load.
