Save Money on eBay Listings with Auctiva Auction Software

If you are selling items on eBay which require many detailed pictures, if you want a classy auction design but do not have the skills or the money to pay a web designer to create one for you, or if you need to list multiple listings at a specific time, consider using Auctiva Auction Software for your eBay auctions.

EBay charges between $0.20 and $4.80 to put up an auction listing, plus a portion of whatever amount you make for selling your item. However, that is not the only way that eBay makes money off of its sellers. There are fees for pretty much everything: bolding a title, adding more than one photo, putting a small gallery photo next to your title, getting a featured listing, or placing the auction in more than one category.

Here are a few ways Auctiva can help you save:

1. Photos EBay typically charges $0.15 per picture with one free picture per listing. If you have an item with fine details which requires multiple pictures in a listing, this gets pretty expensive. With Auctiva, you do not have to pay for any pictures. Since Auctiva creates custom design templates, the photos become imbedded in the design code, so eBay does not recognize them as a separate feature.

2. Scheduling Listings In Advance Many eBay sellers like to list their products in advance. eBay offers a scheduling feature, but it costs about $0.10 per listing. This may not sound like much if you are only listing a couple of items every month, but if you are a regular seller without an eBay store, this adds up. Auctiva allows you to schedule listings in advance without having to pay the fee. The system saves your requested date and time and a computer forwards the information to eBay at exactly the moment when you requested. Generally, it will get forwarded to eBay within 30 seconds.
