This a good tool if you are using the eBay desktop,I was having trouble with the desktop app.it ran very slow and it would’nt go to the different area’s,so I did the norm uninstall and reinstall,then I saw a little artical on Air and installed it and my eBay desktop runs faster and I have’nt had any more trouble with it,if any program says they need the Air app.I would strongly suggest the use of it.If anything Download and save the App from here just in case.Sorry I could’nt add something brand new other than it does what it says it’ll do...Thanks...Joe
