- answering several questions in this thread: -
whois lookup for phpauction: from 1999 until oct. 2009, last update july 2008.
The current domain owner goes in fact back to 1999, hence, so far, all is o.k.,
it would not be the first change in presentation of the site during these years.
phpauction has a long history with changing sales concepts since then.
In spite of the top programming quality inside it, there was always a
finalizing problem and so on, also for some of the commercial versions.
The market of want-to-be auction site owners is too small
for true investment into extended software packages.
It is not very polite to say it frankly, but the phpauction in its freeware version
(was included in fantastico) is not something with the lowest bug-level in human history...
I am specialized in programs and market introduction of auction sites.
Several running - so far none on LP, but there would be no problem on LP servers.
So if somebody has an investor to pay for it
, please contact me. ok Q aha7.com
Otherwise look the software up in software repositories. Be aware,
auctions are the most difficult subject in transaction sites, only a very small
number of offers is up to the promises.
But the main problem is not software, the main problem is market introduction.
For logical reasons, the biggest market place tends to be the only market place,
in the field of auctions. So it is a business and investor problem, not a software problem.
You have to look for a market concept which is not affected by the concentration effect
of auction markets.
