Anyone using sixbit?
I have been thinking of subscribing to sixbit and was looking for recommendations from those that already use it.
I would really like to be able to keep all my old listings indefinitely but on turbolister when you got to a large number of saved listings it slowed down to a crawl and basically was unusable, is this a issue on sixbit?
Another reason is that I do not want to deal with the ebay advanced, or unified new listing method and I assume that listing with sixbit will remain more or less like turbolister was?

·2 years agoI use Sixbit and I have 12K in listings stored in my database.
It operates a bit like Turbolister, but with more features. I'm not an expert on using it and I'm still learning some of the features and how to get the best use of the program. I was told once that it's best to do all modifications on your listings in Sixbit and not to do edits on the ebay site.

·2 years agoI've used it since TL ended.
There is a learning curve, but if you mess with it long enough, you can set it up to where the layout is pretty much the same as TL.
Of course, TL could be laid out many different ways.
We had 4 people listing on different ID's. So, it was important that all our screens look identical. We did that on TL.
When we switched to SixBit, we made all of our screens look really close to the TL layout that we had been using.
As of now, I have thousands of listings saved on SixBit on my PC, and use it for two different ID's.

·2 years agoi am a very heavy user of sixbit. I manage 4 separate ebay accounts through it along with 50K listing.
Major selling points for me:
1) You pay a monthly fee and that is it. No additional cost or limits on the number of listing you can post for free to ebay.
2) Customer service is awesome. On more then one occasion they have gotten on a remote session to help with issues and more importantly solved them
3) My listings and photo's are mine.
4) Creation of listing is simple and easy
5) Free Schedule of listings.
6) Sixbit will end listing for you thus getting around the 'good until sold' ebay feature. You can prevent inadvertently using up your listing allotment which for me is huge as i roll things out seasonally.
7) Updating items in mass is quick and easy. You can even update active listing.
😎 You can create templates and rules to apply to all or select listings
9) Organize your inventory with a folder structure
Honestly can't say enough about the tool but do your own research and come to your own conclusions.

·2 years agoCan you select the categories you want from Ebay store over to sixbit?

·2 years agoThere's an auxiliary sync feature that will download your eBay store categories to SixBit for you to select them there. Each time you modify your ebay categories you need to resync your aux data to update the categories on SixBit.
Also when you start on SixBit you can start off by downloading all your current eBay listings and create templates from them to use on future listings. I found the templates function to be pretty handy, and they have shipping presets that will allow you to change all your shipping prices of the same item with a few clicks (and some time to sync the listings on the eBay site).
