You can login into your Alibie account by clicking on the My Account link at the top or bottom of the page. You will automatically be sent to the summary page of your account when you login. From here you will see a summary of you selling totals, including information of number of live auctions, actions with bid/offers and closed auctions.

You can manage all of your selling items from the Selling section of the Members' Area located in the main menu in the left border of the member’s area:

Open Auctions

 The open Auction view shows firstly a summary of the total items that you are selling, have sold, with bid/offers on and the total number of closed auctions. Under the summary you will find a simple search box to search all your auctions with either by auction number or by title. The main area of the Open Auction page displays a table view of each item currently being sold. You can sort the items the open auction table by clicking on the arrowheads by each column heading.

Items With Bids/Offers

The Items with Bid/Offers is very similar to the open auction view, but shows all the items you are currently selling that have bids or offers on them. You can sort the table the same as open auctions table by clicking on the arrowheads by each column heading.

Scheduled Auctions

The Scheduled Auction view shows all the auction listings you currently have scheduled to start. There will only be items here if you have listed auctions to start at a customized starting time. Or if your account has been placed on live mode and your actions are awaiting fee payment.

Closed Auctions

The Closed Auctions view shows all of your closed auction listings. The view table can again be sorted by clicking on the arrowheads by each column heading.

Drafts

The Drafts view shows all of your saved draft auction listings. There will only be items in this table if you have saved draft of your listings.

Fees Calculator

The fee Calculator allows you to calculate the listing fees for an item before you create the listing. This is a simple calculation where you will need to fill in all the fee based products that you would like to use and the program will give you the total price back. The calculator is only a guideline and you will see the total of the listing fees at the time of listing your product with the option to add extra fee based products.

Prefilled Fields/ Global Setting

Sellers that sell regularly on Alibie Auction will find it easier to list their products by filling in the Global Setting. The prefilled fields page allows you to add information to all your future auctions and will automatically populate any new auctions that you list with this information.

Item Title	The title for your auction listing
Description	Enter any common text that appears in all your item descriptions into this field.
Duration	If your auctions always have the same duration, you can specify it here.
Private Auction	If you always run private auctions, check this box.
Swap Offers	If you are always open to swap offers, check this box.
Shipping Conditions	If your shipping conditions are always

You can also preset all of your payment options using the global setting. Remember that all your auctions will have these prefixes added automatically and you will need to change them if you list any items that do not fit into the global preset values.
