it would be tough to compete with the worldwide reach and incredible variety of engines that make their way to eBay, but heck, you won't know unless you try.

| Also, I for one would use eBay, as that would be the one that majority of the population of the world use! |

Don't be afraid to keep the ideas coming mate.
You just might hit on a cracker that no one has come up with yet.
New ideas and thoughts are what keeps our forum fresh and alive,
so keep up the good work.

It would be an interesting project to try and make work. But ebay works and I think people would keep using to give themselves a wider audience for selling to.
I think that if you want to see whether you could do it, just for the learning experience then try and see if you can put the code together. But I wouldn't make it live to the public to use as then you would be up against all sort of liability issues.
