Hi,
I'm interested in starting my own internet auction business. Does anyone know the name of a good auction software and where I could find it? I'm not interested in running auctions through eBay.
I'm also having trouble finding software that will create user profiles for another site I'm interested in creating.
Any guidance would be appreciated. I know there are a lot of different opinons.
Thanks,
Dan

Do you write in C, PHP, Perl or other languages?
If not, back to ebay you go.

No, I'm not a programmer - but I know there are software packages available (they just need to be integrated into the website) and I know a couple computer scientists who could do this free of charge.
What are my options?
What I'm familiar with requires a bit of programming background. Otherwise the auctioneer and site fails.
Here's a pile of such scripts for you to start with.
