Information for AUC to BIN script

Continuing the discussion from Feature request BIN to AUC:

Hi,

the original thread is now closed. I need to use the script as @kristian suggested in the above thread to convert auctions starting price to buy it now price of a group of listings. I tried the script, but it simply put 1€ as fixed price and disable the auction starting price. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for any advice.

This AppleScript will do that:

tell application "GarageSale 9.8.1"
	repeat with theListing in (get selected ebay listings)
		set use buy it now of theListing to true
		set use starting bid of theListing to false
		set theStartingBid to the starting bid price of theListing
		set the buy it now price of theListing to theStartingBid
		set the starting bid price of theListing to "0.00"
	end repeat
end tell

This AppleScript will do the opposite:

tell application "GarageSale 9.8.1"
	repeat with theListing in (get selected ebay listings)
		set use starting bid of theListing to true
		set use buy it now of theListing to false
		set theBINPrice to the buy it now price of theListing
		set the starting bid price of theListing to theBINPrice
		set buy it now price of theListing to "0.00"
	end repeat
end tell

Rename “GarageSale 9.8.1” to whatever its called on your computer.

If you do not want unwanted starting bid or BIN set to zero disable the last line.

You may briefly see the red warning explanation mark indicating that you have both the BIN and starting auction price enabled at the same time. This will go away once the listing and / or group is unselected. The update of GUI interface lags behind the code.

@fedege96 There was an issue with the script. I updated it so it should work fine now.

Hi Kristian,

you mean the script in the original thread or the one from Jfs?

@fedege96 Sorry for the confusion. I was referring to my Javascript here:
