auction tools FYI

A while back I posted a link to the program BayCheck which is a free download you can use to check bid, sell, and feedback history for any eBay user. The link was:

http://www.hammertap.com/

They have many other free products and many more for sale.

I receive a daily computer newsletter from Lockergnome - http://www.lockergnome.com and today's issue lists two products which may be useful to some of y'all.

The following has been copied directly from the newsletter - the only program I have used is BayCheck and it works without problem. I have no connection with any of the companies mentioned and offer this only for your information....

Auction Station [2.5M] W9x/2k/XP US$29.95

{Auction Watching and Bidding Utility} With an integrated Web browser and user-friendly tools, Auction Station offers you the winning edge. Easily find and watch auctions in a fraction of the time. Create bids to be sent right away, or use Auction Station's Precision Bidding to execute the bid seconds before it closes. The Auto-Updating Engine makes sure your program keeps working, even as auction services change. Every day, Auction Station checks for an updated engine and if it finds one, it downloads and installs the newer module. No need to reinstall the entire program. Use Snipe Baskets to organize bids and customize the baskets so only a limited number of auctions are won. Auction Station will snipe each auction until your maximum is met and will cancel the remaining bids.

{Rate the eBay deadbeats} Fortunately, I've only run into one deadbeat on eBay, but since I was the seller rather than the buyer, all I lost was wasted time. Despite eBay's best efforts to make buying and selling a good experience, there are screwed-up and bad experiences with online auctions. eBay only gives you 80 characters to tell your story in feedback, but this site provides a full Web page space and pictures for sharing your tale. Some people are afraid of leaving negative feedback on eBay for fear of retaliation. Instead, you can post the story on this site and let everyone know about the deadbeat. Before you bid or sell, check out the site for possible additional feedback that's not appearing on the official eBay site. Search for an eBayer by ID; however, the search is imperfect. I did a search of my first name and received results where my name was not even listed in the posts. There are pop-ups asking for donations, but the resource is useful despite that annoyance.
