No snipe = fairly pointless - Version: 1.4.2, 5/15/2008 02:00PM PST

The only real reason to use a third party tool for eBay (unless you are some sort of eBay pro) is to enable sniping. Garage Buy looks good, but since it doesn't permit sniping it is pretty useless.

Less than 100% user friendly - but has potential - Version: 1.3, 1/20/2008 12:00AM PST

I scour international eBay sites for specific items, some with complex criteria. From the start, you can log into only one international eBay site at a time; I'd prefer the option of three or four.

Setting up the search can be complicated, depending on the item. Since I no not use the Garage Buy snipe engine, I wonder whether this software can accomplish what I require. All that said, the interface is attractive and the basic design has potential.

Useless until you add spices. - Version: 1.2b3, 12/4/2007 12:36PM PST

So guys, did you add a snipe yet. You made one of the best applications EVER, GarageSale. Then you put this tease out there called GarageBuy.

I thought I was going to start shitting flying monkeys, but then realized that there was no sniping tool. A real noodle dropper.

I'm still not giving up hope. Don't worry so much about Leopard cause not too many people have it and some are going back to Tiger. I have the Leopard install but after buying it I find that it won't install on my G4. It turns out to be a good thing because Apple is doing it again by making everyone rebuy updates to apps that they have paid twice for, once in os 9, then upgraded to os X, now I smell a rat with Leopard.

I hear that Vista is doing the same thing to people but with hardware. Apple also fixes software to force people to upgrade computers.

I think Gates & Jobs are a closet couple that have an S&M love hate relationship, but I may be wrong. That would be a first.
