What's your favorite eBay/auction helping software?
mouser:
I want to start a thread about ebay/auction helping software from those who use such tools.. There are some really great ones I know.
Anyone want to volunteer to help me build a nice list with screenshots and info for these tools similar to what tomos did for disc cataloguers: here?
mouser:
No one here uses any ebay helper software?
Here's a very cool free one i discovered recently, called AuctionSieve. Seems pretty darn cool to me.
Just using search keywords is not enough. Let me tell you a secret - the real bargains are often hidden behind bad auction titles! But who has the time to wade through every item in an ebay category looking for these. There's always lots of stuff you know you're not interested in. What if you could instantly get rid of these things? That's what AuctionSieve does!
...
You're often still left with a mighty long list. And that's where AuctionSieve really goes to work. It prioritises the rest of the auctions according to your criteria - and it's a snap to set up!
All the items are -
* filtered (instantly hide junk you're not interested in)
* grouped in a recognisable way
* in order of importance
If you only have a short amount of time at the end of the day to check the closing auctions, you can just scan the important top few items in the generated list - drastically reducing your time spent searching eBay. Still want to use just regular ebay searches? AuctionSieve can do that too. Save an unlimited number of searches. Combine the results from multiple searches.

My experience with AuctionTamer is that it is an extremely powerful intuitive tool. However it's moved more and more to becoming an expensive pay-per-month service and so i think it's really only for hardcore daily auction users.

Here is one more very solid and probably most famous eBay snipping software: Auction Sentry. There are Standard and Deluxe editions available for $14.95 (one time fee) and $24.95 (one year license fee) respectively. The main difference is that Deluxe version features embedded web browser and more convenient way to represent you personal list of items. After testing period I purchased Deluxe version and absolutely content with it. Helped to save a lot of money already ;)

Another option is BayGenie eBay Auction Sniper Pro Edition ($14.95 One time Charge, Free version available), but I find it somewhat not stable...
