Unable to add photos when bid received

Hi, new to GarageSale. I have the latest version of Mac OS (Sequoia 15.2), Safari (18.2), and GarageSale (9.9).

My issue is that when I create a new listing from within GarageSale, add 6-7 photos (all jpeg) and then make the posting go live, only the first photo gets uploaded into the live eBay listing. If I’m creating multiple listings, and forget to double-check if all images are uploaded for each listing, the first time there’s a bid I can’t upload the other photos as I get an error message “A mixture of self-hosted and EPS images are not allowed”.

My GarageSale settings for photos are to use “GarageSale’s free picture service”; I have checked off “Also upload images to eBay’s picture service, if free”; and I have checked off “Enable picture pack automatically, if free”. Maximum picture size is "1024 x 786.

  • For the image server tab, there is nothing listed as I do not have an FTP site created.

  • All images are stored locally on my Mac laptop in a folder called (surprisingly) eBay.

  • For Image Library: Use Legacy Image Browser is “unchecked”.

  • For eBay access token: I just refreshed it (today); and for Account Details: I also Updated it as of today.

Any help will be greatly appreciated. I’m not sure if it’s better to use eBay’s Picture Service and if it will bypass the self-hosted and EPS error message. I was trying to avoid any possible fees by using EPS.

If you have GarageSale picture service selected, make sure that “Also upload images to eBay’s Picture service, if free” and “Enable picture pack automatically, if free” is enabled as well.

Please see the help here:

Due to eBay rules you can’t add images to your item description if there already is a bid on your auction. What you can do is to add additional images below the item description but this can only be done through the eBay website directly.
(If I am not mistaken - maybe they changed this)
