Quick List Tool (QLT) versus Advanced List Tool (ALT)?

[abfabvintage]

Many threads here related to using the Quick List and/or Advanced List ebay tools. Is there any "comparison list" whereas a seller, whether newbie or seasoned, can decide which tool to use if they knew the advantages/disadvantages?

Just finished reading current thread related to listing in 2 categories (only Advanced allows, not the Quickie). And many many threads about the automatic "default?" in the Quick Tool where the BO is automatically checked (and if you even realize it, you go in and revise, and the BO comes back automatically to haunt you). And again, advice given most times is to use the Advanced tool. 

So, is there some comparison (educational lol) help for new/seasoned sellers to decide which tool to use? I don't use either as have my own non-ebay listing tool. And why would there even be a choice when most/some posters advise using the Advanced?

The Quick Listing tool is often used by new sellers.  But the Advanced Listing tool gives you more choice, more control, in what options you use on your listing.  The Quick Listing too, as you state, has defaults that you cannot undo on that listing form.

Using the Advanced Listing form is a great choice.

Do you have drafts ready to launch that were created by either of the listing tools? If so - welcome back to selling - - you'll learn to see it from both sides.

I use the quick listing tool to make my drafts. I like it a lot, I find it very user-friendly and uncomplicated. My only complaint that is that it does not give all the shipping options so I sometimes have to switch over to ALF but that only takes a minute to do.
