ToDo list
The ToDo
feature is very handy for those bidders that have a lot of purchases forthcoming,
feedbacks to do and confirmations to make. In the Database
view, the ToDo list is enhanced with a budget tracker for those Sniper's that care to know
how much money is being spent and committed to be spent on auctions.
-

the option of having Cricket Jr show a little Reminder notice
each time program is run. The Reminder notice will display briefly then go away. This nice
feature has been designed to compliment the ToDo list. You will be reminded of when the

Cricket
Updater program.

View
Auctions screen. Every seller you have ever dealt with is made available to you.

Email
A big part of
bidder management is the ability to conveniently track purchases then send an email to the
seller if needed. A user can have Cricket Jr send an email automatically after a Snipe.
The user can customize their emails in the Email Editor. The user can wait for the seller to email them but on
those occasions when a user is on vacation or traveling it might be desirable to have
Cricket Jr assist the user in making the Ebay imposed 3 day confirmation time limit. The
optional automatic emails are:
-
I'm a winner! Here is my information...
-
I notice the reserve wasn't met... what is the best price you will take
for this?
-
Hi! I just left you positive feedback on Ebay!
-
Hello! I am a bit concerned I submitted payment on X day and I have yet
to receive my shipment.
With one mouse click, the Feedback
Screen will present the user with all of the sellers that need feedback.
The Feedback screen is also a Feedback Message Editor. The user can add,
delete or edit any of their custom feedback messages.
The Feedback editor has a character counter. The user will always know
how many characters their message contains. This nice feature complies with
Ebay's 80 character feedback message limit.
The Feedback editor has an Auto Find feature. As the user types
characters in the feedback message field Cricket Jr will find a matching message. As soon
as the correct message is displayed the user can stop typing or keep typing to create a
new custom message. The user can also just click the down arrow button and select a
message the old fashioned way.
Synchronize your Clock
You have to know Exactly when an auction will end if you are going to snipe, so Cricket Jr uses an Atomic Clock
to synch with AND compares this time to Ebay time adjusting the time to Snipe as needed!
Sleep Easy Mode
