We have received a FREE six Month offer to switch our data from Turbo Lister to Six Bit. I believe when Turbo Lister first came out it was free to eBay stores because it was sponsored (?) by eBay. Now that it will not be supported and is going away Six Bit is offered. My question is, it is NOT FREE so HOW MUCH IS IT? It will become another fee charged by eBay ????
Anybody out their use and know about Six-Bit, who previously used Turbo Lister?
What are your thoughts?

SixBit is a separate company from eBay, and they publish their costs on their website just like eBay does.
I Googled "SixBit cost" and got this page: https://www.sixbitsoftware.com/pricing/
It gives the various pricing levels for the SixBit service.

Here's the link that includes the ebay 6 mo free/$14.95 after that offer:

I switched and have kicked myself for not doing it years ago....so much faster, less hassle, tearing my hair out at sudden glitches/time waiting for pics to load and listing to load.
It did take several days to learn where everything is, new terminology, etc, but I remember crying trying to learn TL....

After the initial 6 month free trial it will cost you either $14.99 per month, $19.99 per month, $34.99 per month, or $69.00 per month depending which one of the 4 various packages that you choose.
I use the $69.00 per month Enterprise Edition as that package allows me to sell on Amazon US & UK , Etsy, as well as eBay US & UK. And even Shopify which I do not currently sell on but I might in the future.

IMO the service is well worth the cost, if you are willing to take the time to learn it so that you can extract every bit of functionality that this service offers. They have an outstanding You Tube channel with a ton of video tutorials which were made with the novice in mind. The learning curve can be a little steep, but once again IMO it will be well worth the investment of your time to learn.

I have the middle version, $34.99 a month, which fully supports my eBay only selling with 1000 listings a month. I do sell on a couple other platforms that Six-bit doesn't work with.

I haven't listed 1000 in a long time I have been taking advantage of the free listings.
Do you still think it would be advantageous? I will have to do something with my TL data soon.

I also sell on other sites that Six-Bit does not work with. But with those I find that I tend to shoe horn in the details using a cut and paste type methodology; from my pool of existing listings.

Thank you my thoughts exactly all the work and effort and finally all the glitches are ironed out and I am comfortable maneuvering TL. So what was free is no longer 😞 . Did you have any problem importing your data and how long is your data stored in the repository?
I didn't import from TL to 6 bit....had gotten a new computer and put 6 bit on it, but not TL. did import present listings and didn't take long....... data is stored as long as you have the program....no 120 days type limitations.
They are really quite helpful..... Better half has had it forever and been "after" me to use it, They offer 2 users on his $20 plan, so we contacted them, they made an appt and THEY installed it on mine and amended his version to add me as a different user. Had some kind of a problem, which I can't remember, but they came right back the next day and corrected it. Can't say enough about the service.

I used to use TurboLister and switched to SixBit a number of years ago and have been very happy with it. It's not free but the time it saves me is well worth the price to me.
It has a lot of features that you can read about in this review https://ebaylistingtoolreview.weebly.com/

Does Sixbit put advertising at the bottom in your listings?
