Interesting program. It looks quite nice using Adobe AIR. I've used it a number of times but there are certain things you can access via the website with a browser concerning your eBay account that I still haven't figured out how to do from within eBay Desktop. It definitely won't be something I always use but it's handy.

This is one of those things I should not like....one of those little guilt things. But I do like to use it. One point off for the complicated installation. Don't care for that.

Unless it lets you snipe, it's completely and utterly useless. As mentioned by others, there's really no advantage using this over just visiting eBay on the web via a browser.

What does it offer exactly over simply going to ebay directly?

I just installed this and like it a lot. I mostly browse and buy so the current inability to sell from this interface doesn't bother me ... and they plan to add selling capability at some point anyway.
This takes searching (Boolean) and refining the search to new levels and is it is incredibly easy to do. The interface is clean and it all makes perfect sense and is easy to use.

Good program if you're an eBay junkie. Program shows real-time ticker for auction countdowns. Quick overview of your account in a better layout than My eBay page. IF your an eBay junkie, I think you'll like the program.

One note, the program download didn't come with any instructions and I ended up installing from the publishers website. Requires AIR.

What a freaking waste of programming time. I mean god forbid...its so hard to go to Ebay.com. This is exactly the. thing that the software market is trying to get away from and moving more towards the web. I give it a 1 because I cant give it a 0.

Good program, nice features. The only reason I rate it a 3 is because it is installed with unrestricted access to pc file system and internet which poses a major security risk
