Apple Script Not working, major issues

GarageSale

Continuing the discussion from GarageSale 7 Script Help:

Hi Ilja,

The applescript is not working that much at all.
I have this script to update everything but it doesn’t seem to work to well.

tell application "GarageSale"
repeat with theListing in (get selected ebay listings)
#set the starting bid price of theListing to 12.0
set newBidAmt to buy it now price of theListing
set amount to (starting bid price of theListing as real)
set amount to (amount as real)
set starting bid price of theListing to (newBidAmt - 0.01) as string
end repeat
end tell

It changes some, but not everything and has takes a long time to run, since it is executing against garage sale.

Help please.

How many listings did you have selected when running the script? Just a few or your entire library?

An entire group (folder).

I think problem has to do with the behavior I’ve seen with the folder selection lately.

I will write a separate thread for the “group/folder” issue.

Starting with Beta 31, this script should do what you want:

    tell application "GarageSale"
		repeat with theListing in (get selected ebay listings)
			--set the starting bid price of theListing to 12.0
			set newBidAmt to buy it now price of theListing
			--set amount to (starting bid price of theListing as real)
			--set amount to (amount as real)
			set starting bid price of theListing to (newBidAmt - 0.01)
			set use starting bid of theListing to true
		end repeat
	end tell
