Title: like ebay, users sell to other users?
Post by: m0zeid on February 17, 2015, 22:36:21 PM
Hello,

I'm trying to start a website so locals can sell each others online, just like ebay.

Like having normal users, "seller" users, reviews about the sellers...

Is this possible? I tried to figure this out with no luck. I've found a template that looks like ebay exactly but nothing about this functionality.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Please allow me to explain more.

I know that VM supports only one seller/vendor, while still potentially has the ability to do more.
And there are some extensions that give the functionality to have more than one seller, unique sellers with their own permissions to do things.

They are good, but what i need is more.
All the users can post new items, and all users can buy. little loose eh?!

can this be done?

Completly wrong. Vm3 supports even different modes.

Wrong, they do not provide the function, they usually just provide the GUI.

VirtueMart has even different cart modes, the one missing for ebay is the multicart. btw, this IS a multivendor store http://extensions.virtuemart.net/
