GarageSale 5.0.3 supports eBay Germany shipping changes
Just in time for eBay Germany’s shipping service change on August, 1st GarageSale 5.0.3 is available for download.
eBay Germany has introduced new services, replacing most of the shipping services German eBay sellers have used in the past.
GarageSale 5.0.3 offers these new services when preparing new eBay listings and adds a convenient conversion command to the Template (German: Vorlage) menu. GarageSale users can use this command to bulk convert any number of existing listing templates according to eBay’s conversion suggestions with a single mouse click.

Hi Sebastian,
Please checkout GarageSale’s update conditions on the pricing page (German Version).
If you rather want to keep using your existing license, please download GarageSale 3.4.4 from the GarageSale downloads page.

Will GarageSale 3.x support the new shipping services, too?

Hi Admin,
I am also trying to upload an auction to ebay with the Version 3.4.4, but there is an error regarding the “outdated” shipment method which makes it impossible to upload the auction without taking the risk of getting a bad surprise at the ebay site…
I find it annoying that my version bought in May 2007 is already “out of date” and unsusable after such a short period of time and that users are forced again and again to buy updates of your software!
Even if it is “only” some 19 Dollars – there are lots of other software sellers who deliver free updates for a longer period of time. Even if there are changes caused by ebay, you should not leave your users standing in the rain with a piece of software which is obviously full of errors and translation mistakes.
Kind regards
Florian

Hi Stefan,
GarageSale version 3.4.5 should support eBay Germany’s new shipping services. It’s available from the GarageSale download page.

Hi Florian,
Please see my response to Stefan for an update version of GarageSale. Also, you got a lot of things wrong in your post:
I find it annoying that my version bought in May 2007 is already “out of date” and unsusable after such a short period of time and that users are forced again and again to buy updates of your software!
So far we only charged once for updates when we released GarageSale 4 early this year. All other updates have been free since 2004. I’m not sure why you got the impression that we are charging for updates “again and again”. We recently released two patches for GarageSale 3.4 that keep the application compatible with recent changes at eBay, thus enabling early customers run GarageSale with the very same license they bought almost 4 years ago.
Even if there are changes caused by ebay, you should not leave your users standing in the rain with a piece of software which is obviously full of errors and translation mistakes.
Please feel free to report any issues you encounter to us using the contact form on this site.

Thanks for updating the German Shipping services … However … There is a need to update the BELGIAN shipping services too, and the app. refused to update these from eBay.be …
Is there a work-around for this?
The actual Belgian shipping services should stay stable now for about a year or 2 since the Belgian Post sells vouchers valid untill 2010 …
Thanks in advance for your comments …
