<p>[QUOTE="phankins11, post: 2076541, member: 70703"]I've been selling coins on ebay for a while now.

I do this to make money for my own collection.

I can prepare all my new items in a csv files, then import into TurboLister and voila all my listings are ready to upload to ebay...its a significant time saver over creating a new listing for each item from the ebay website. However, I still have to go through each item in TurboLister one by one and add the pictures to the listing...this can take 1-2 minutes per item, mostly due to the horrible performance of TurboLoader (its just kludgy). When your listing 50 to 175 items this can be a significant time investment.</p><p><br /></p><p>One thing I've figured out is that I can host the photos on my Google Picasa account, put the URLs in a specific column in my csv file, import, upload and done.
