“The plan is to introduce sellers to SixBit in groups to ensure all new users have access to speedy support from both SixBit and eBay support personnel through the migration process,” he said. Slocum said eBay also wanted to make sure that users had plenty of time to migrate and try the new solution before having to make any financial commitment, so TurboLister users will have a special offer of 6 months free. which is less than our previously lowest cost option, the Home and Hobby Edition at $19.99/mon.” “eBay felt it was very important to provide a low cost solution, so we agreed to reduced pricing on the Turbo Lister Edition. “In the future, if their businesses grow, they can easily upgrade to more functionality.”

The “Turbo Lister Version of SixBit” contains all of the functionality of Turbo Lister, along with some familiar icons,” Slocum said. With eBay ending support for Turbo Lister, Slocum’s company created a special version of SixBit Software for TurboLister users with a lower price and with a “very gracious trial period.” The entrepreneur created eBay listing software Blackthorne in 1998, and he then sold the tool to eBay and became an employee.Īfter eBay laid him off 10 years later, he developed SixBit, extending the tool to help sellers list not only on eBay, but on rival marketplaces as well. It’s the latest twist in an unusual history Slocum has with eBay. “eBay wants to make sure the Turbo Lister users have a smooth transition, and we have been working with them for some time to get a process in place,” he said.

SixBit Software founder John Slocum confirmed that he has been working with eBay to provide a preferred solution for Turbo Lister, which is a desktop tool that allows sellers to manage their listings offline at no extra cost. Im currently using Turbolister2 this is great for bulk listing, and items always list to ebay when you want them!įor those that dont like turbolister, there are other options such as esellerpro and channeladvisor and marketplace.EBay is working with a third-party software provider to offer sellers an alternative to Turbo Lister, which eBay will stop supporting in July. I run a business and this cost a days trade, immediately stopped using auctivia as theres no point using a site that cant list items when they are scheduled. ended up having items ending at 2am etc when no one was on ebay!

For this using Auctiva for scheduled listings beware! I had around 100 items set up to list using their scheduler, most failed, others were listed 30 minutes late etc.
