Initially I purchased 3.0 with out trying out the demo. I had owned version 2 and was very pleased with it. So when 3.0 came out I upgraded. It took some getting used to but I felt that the editing features were okay for a simple consumer program intended to just create auctions and place them on ebay. The isight intergration and iphoto intergration are wonderful for selecting images to display in my auctions. A simple copy and paste method put my pre-written text into the template and a few tweaks with formating allowed some text style changes. I use phone dial-up internet connection at my home, and that is a problem with the program I had several errors with uploading and never did get my auctions posted to ebay. The program would prefer a faster internet connection for uploading images (to .mac) and files (to ebay). With a slower connection a person may have problems using this piece of software. At my office I have DSL and it was only a matter of minutes that my auction was up and running. With ical intergration I am reminded when my auctions were placed and the duration for which they are on ebay. I admit that my very first auction with isale 3 has yet to be completed, so I have not been able to try out all the features. I am looking forward to using the contact which looks like it is intergrated with Mail from mac. The program will also keep your customer contact information in the address book. I did try the widget, but it could not located my auction. However I just put the auction up a few minutes ago so perhaps it needs to wait awhile before it can find it. I am not a big fan of widgets anyway. Need a manual, simply go to the iSale website and download it in PDF format. Would I recommend isale 3.0. Absolutly. I have been looking for a good multi-purpose auction tracking software since OS 9.0 and a program called A.I.D. iSale is a good product if you have a highspeed internet connection. iSale does not have every bell and whistle, but it does enough for now to make it a good program. As with anything there is always room for expansion. Besides the dial-up issue, my biggest complaint is I wish there were more templates. Overall this is a good program and well worth the money.
