Whether you are a buyer or a seller, this online auction tool can streamline and automate the transactions you make through eBay. Auction Sentry automates bidding by placing your bid as close to the end of the auction as possible (referred to as "sniping"). The intuitive interface displays your auctions in a color-coded grid, indicating which auctions you are winning, which you have been out-bid on, and which you have set up a snipe bid for. Auction Sentry tracks all auctions and has a configurable refresh rate (five minutes by default). Auction Sentry can also be configured to alert you when an auction you are tracking receives a bid.

The latest version features a host of updates including support for all of the European eBay sites, the ability to run on non-English installations of Windows, a newly updated help file, ability to load auctions from your My eBay Item's I'm Watching page, the ability to export your auctions file to Excel and the ability to print out your auctions list.

Features include:
-Watches & displays your auctions while keeping your auction information up to date.
-Alerts you whenever there is activity in one of the auctions it is watching for you. If the program has been minimized it will pop up and display a screen notifying you of the change.
-Adding auctions to watch is as simple as the click of your mouse. You can add them one at a time or have Auction Sentry sweep eBay and add all your auctions at once.
-Place instant bids for you or it can set up time delayed bids (sniping!) to be placed just before the auction ends to make sure that YOU get the last bid in!
-Synchronizes your PC's internal clock with eBay's to ensure that your bids are placed EXACTLY when you want them!
-Automatically detects when a newer version of itself is available and will download and update your system for you. All updates are free! (Note: Auction Sentry comes with free updates for life. Auction Sentry Deluxe requires a license renewal of $9.99 at the end of each year of use to continue using the Deluxe Edition)
-Comes with a complete context-sensitive help system with Contents, Index and Search capabilities to get you answers fast.
-Updates auction information at regular intervals that you assign from every few seconds to hours as you prefer.
-Intuitive easy to use interface that takes just minutes to master. Your auctions are displayed in the Auctions Grid and are color coded to indicate whether you are the current high bidder, have been out-bid or have a snipe bid waiting to be placed automatically. All functions are accessible by clicking one of the buttons on the toolbar.
-NEW IN DELUXE EDITION: Use the built in browser to find & view auctions and add them to your tracking list or set up a snipe bid with the click of a button (no more copying and pasting item numbers).
-NEW IN DELUXE EDITION: Set up conditional bid groups for similar auctions. See 5 auctions all selling the same thing? Set up a Bid Group whereby Auction Sentry Deluxe will execute snipes on each one in turn until one of them is won. The other snipes in the bid group are cancelled as soon as one of them is won.
-NEW IN DELUXE EDITION: Added support for multiple eBay IDs. Store as many eBay user IDs as you wish in the Deluxe Edition (the standard edition only stores one default ID).
-NEW IN DELUXE EDITION: Customizable grid with new columns available. With Auction Sentry Deluxe you can customize the grid display to show only the columns you want to see in the order you want to see them. Additional columns available in the Deluxe Edition are High Bidder, Seller, Buy It Now Price, Bid Group, End Time, Shipping price and User Notes. Buyer and seller ratings can be displayed as well. You can change the font type and size in the grid display to any font installed on your computer.
