Frequently Asked Questions

1. I get an error concerning my "Authorization Token". What now?eBay tokens expire automatically after a period of time. To refresh your token, select your account in GarageBuy's Peferences, click on Accounts, and click on "Refresh Token".
2. How many eBay accounts can I use with GarageBuy?Use as many accounts as you like.
3. Why do I have to fetch a token at the eBay site?GarageBuy is a certified eBay client. The only way for certified clients to add listings for your eBay account is via an access token. On the page you are granting GarageBuy this eBay token.
4. Do I have to give you access to my eBay account?No, you don't give us access to your account at all! eBays authorization page is a little bit misleading on that. When you agree to the eBay page, you give GarageBuy access to your eBay account in form of an access token. This access token is securely stored in your Keychain and not shared with anybody, including us. You control what applications can access your Keychain!
5. What information will GarageBuy share with you?GarageBuy will not share any kind of information about your eBay auctions or eBay activies with us. eBays sign-in page is designed also for web based eBay tools, where you token would be transmitted to the tool provider. Using that token a tool provider could manage your account for you and access your eBay information. GarageBuy does not share your token with us, so none of your eBay information is shared.
