warning about AJ squares' auction script
Posted: Fri Jan 09, 2009 10:13 am
Hi,
I just thought i would warn you about AJ square.
AJ squares' auction software is the worst php script I have ever bought. AJ squares website looks very professional and the demos are fantastic but when you buy the package for 299 euros you are not given, any php files thus you basically can't edit anything on the site. Nearly all the features it states as having do not function properly. I have spent a year trying to solve the problems with their, "customer support", which I can categorically say is the most ineffective waste of time. They have managed to solve hardly any problems. As the site does not actually function properly and you do not have any php files, you cannot try and solve the problems thus the website is obsolete. You will have to pay an extra 1999 euros to actually get the, "open source code", which is basically the wrong name for decrypted files. The problems that you face when buying this, "enterprise package" for just under 2000 euros. Firstly, the bidding system does not work properly; for the price of 1999 euros, you would expect it to have a proxy bidding system. The search engine does not work. It does not recognised when an auction has ended thus bidding can still occur after an item has expired. The payment system from user to user does not function. It will not recognised if someone has paid. The whole format of a, “Dutch auction” does not work. The number of errors is endless. The php script itself is appallingly written and I have had several developers look at it, and they all commented about how unprofessionally written it was. I WOULD ADVISE ANYONE LOOKING TO BUY THIS SCRIPT, PLEASE DON'T! I have been completely ripped off and after asking for a refund they were extremely rude, which was the contrast of their friendly behaviour before I gave them the money. BEWARE, STAY AWAY FROM ANY AJ SQUARE PRODUCTS, despite how professional they may look on the demos. IF you want to test the validity of the company, try calling their, "American headquarters" and prepare to get forwarded to an Indian office, which is where they actually operate.
I am now stuck with a worthless script and a website that does not function properly. Please do not make the same mistake as me!
Kind Regards,
Kevin
