Hello!

I'm looking for a business. My business would be auction on online world.

Is there any free auction systems, which allow me to be something like <snip>. i guess, they take a little bit of payment on the products sold on their website. So i would gain very little percentage of the payment for a item.

Is it possible / legal? Any free software that can do that? What is it then?

:)

I have not found any free auction software that is worth much of anything.

At one time you could find phpAuction free, but they have moved to a paid model. I have heard reports of poor code and security issues, but I don't know if that is still true.

In PERL there is EveryAuction, which I implemented on a charity site once. It has its quirks, and I was never able to get it to work on a Windows machine, though it did fine when I switched over to a Linux/Apache set-up.
