Get ready for a major overhaul: GarageSale 3 is out.

Although we refined GarageSale’s look and re-designed almost all toolbar icons, GarageSale’s beauty is more than only skin deep: with decreased start up times, reduced memory usage when batch listing multiple items, and an much improved error reporting mechanism this update offers something for everyone. Make sure to check out the GarageSale homepage for a complete version history, screenshots, and of course the download link.

And while our programmers have been busy adding new features, our designers weren’t lazy either: check out the new listing design packs included with the 3.0 release:

This update is free for all registered users, as all GarageSale updates since version 1.0 have been.

If you are looking for a “physical” Christmas present for your Mac-enthusiastic friend, here is some good news for you:

Destineer’s MacSoft division is distributing a boxed version of GarageSale. The official press release is up here.

We have just added 5 beautiful design templates to GarageSale, which are available immediately through the Design Template Manager (Window menu). Including the new designs, GarageSale now offers 74 unique (meaning that more than the border color has been changed 😉 ) designs, that can be previewed here.

Remember where you have seen these designs first when the copycats started their photocopiers…

GarageSale 2.4 is now available for you to download from the GarageSale homepage. The new version sports interface improvements, can send customizable messages to buyers through eBay’s message system and Microsoft Entourage, and supports Growl to display small notification windows whenever one of your item sells or receives a new bid. And of course this update again is once again free.
