Dear GarageSale Users,

https://downloads.iwascoding.com/downloads/GarageSale_7.0b17.zip

We’d appreciate your early feedback, so if you have a few minutes to spare, please give GarageSale 7 a try. Your GarageSale 6 installation will not be altered by trying out GarageSale 7.

What’s new since the last Beta release

  • fixed a crash when completely deleting the contents of the shipping dimensions field (thanks @Bretterson)
  • the domestic handling fees field in the shipping options panel is now editable, when calculated shipping is selected (thanks @vintagecrave)
  • fixed problems with the title and subtitle fields in Editor mode not saving user input (thanks @vintagecrave)
  • fixed several problems in the inspector when multiple templates are selected (thanks @icspanta)
  • GarageSale is more forgiving about minor inconsistencies in the database (thanks @rws762)
  • improved the speed of eBay verification, e.g. in the Scheduler window (thanks @vintagecrave)
  • GarageSale no longer shows an error when immediate payment is requested and bids are accepted alongside a fixed price (thanks @stephencday)

What’s new in GarageSale 7

  • completely modernized interface with instant error reporting
  • a new custom database engine, which hopefully deals better with large amounts of data and allows us to adapt to eBay changes more quickly
  • GarageSale 7 does away with the template/auction differentiation - it only offers listings, which can either be running or not
  • a new Orders sections which shows information about purchased items and buyers
  • Reports can generate diagrams in addition to text tables
  • automatic update of eBay category information as needed
  • listing design are now optimized for mobile devices
  • local live validation of most eBay errors in new “Preflight” panel
  • listing images can be edit using image editing apps installed on your Mac and with image editing extensions
  • listing images can be copied and pasted between images
  • support for barcodes on the variation level
  • you can copy specific settings from one listing and paste them into other listings
  • added a preference setting ‘Load Flash’ to prevent Flash plugin crashes
  • inventory items can be exported and imported
  • you can now set the quantity of 'Good ‘til cancelled’ listings to zero to mark the item “out of stock” (you need to enable the ‘Out of Stock’ feature in your selling preferences on eBay’s website)
  • when selling cars on eBay Motors or eBay UK, there is no a dedicated field for the vehicle ID (VIM or VRM)
  • much more

hi, I just installed Beat 17 for G7. The Duration keep coming up at 1 day.
I have GTC listings and duplicate it and comes up as 1 day.
I saved the preference as GTC but once you logout, it comes back as 1day.
it need to keep what I put in as preference.
please

Sorry, that is probably an unintended side effect if one of the bug fixes in beta 17. We’ll have an updated version out in a few hours.

Hi,

I notice the 1 day stuff when you’re select multiple or when you’re on selecting the Group.

Thank you.
