Create eBay Listing software

Objective ------------ To create the most practical, intuitive, most deliciously-interfaced, fastest, stablest, most customizable software solution to manage auctions, esp. eBay-certified. Cost ------ Since i have no idea what such an appl could cost in terms of programming, i used the lowest budget. I am willing to share in the profits of software sales! I am a designer and eBay seller, can help cut on resources by helping conceive features & develop interface etc. License ------ The finished app is my copyright. It requires a site in the likes of [login to view URL] or [login to view URL], but that's another project. For now, i'd like to know how much such a project would cost me, as an individual. If i could create my own software, as current services suck, i wouldn't want to spend time & money, without sharing it, commercially.

(No GPL, GNU, 3rd party components, etc. unless all copyright ramifications are explained AND AGREED TO by the buyer on the site per the coder's Seller Legal Agreement). ## Platform - MacOS X - Windows XP/Vista If you don't know what Apple MacOS X, requires for programming, please see: [login to view URL] For developer FAQ see: [login to view URL] For developer tools see: [login to view URL] It's an intuitive programming language. Or you can choose to port a Windows application pretty easily with Apple's - though i recommend coding for the Mac from scratch to take advantage of the full power that is MacOS X - a Unix-based system! In any case, a dual-system software would be even better. One that works on OSX & Windows for maximum leverage.
