Title: eBay Product Scanner
Post by: pieman103021 on December 31, 2012, 07:25:20 PM
Hello!
I am now working on a simple application that will scan eBay for products that can be used to mine bitcoins. In the first release will likely only include searching, but not buying. I am very open to criticism and ideas, and will be posting video and picture updates frequently.

Todo List:

 ;D = done
 >:( = not done
 ;)  = in planning
 :D = working on it

  • Make page to select price, condition, search term etc.  :D
  • Make Page to choose product   :D
  • Make Page to view product  ;)
  • Make Page to Buy Product  >:(
  • Add is support for buying with BTC  ??? Not even thinking about it yet
  • Get Criticism/Ideas  :D


Updates:
1/1/2013
Don't expect a release until next week

Pictures!

Why stop short of a truely awesome ass app? I'd be willing to purchase an app the hunts sellers accepting coin for any item. I know for a fact plenty of auctions exist that allow for coin transactions. But individuals seem to word they accept coin in a multitude of ways.



+1 I think everyone accepting bitcoin will have mentioned it in the description, I think that's a very useful tool if it could filter ebay for those users :D

Hmmm. Well I will add it to the to do list, but at the moment I am trying to get changing pages working. It is simple, but I need to redo a whole section of code. After that I will make the viewing/buying page and then try to figure out how to do that.

Tackling a bug, but can give you a screenshot of what I have. I also have a system that I can get all of the information about the items, just have to figure out why I still can't change the page that I am looking at...

I did a little work last night, but I am going away this weekend. I will try to get as much done today as possible, but I might not get a release. During the next couple of weeks I will post videos and pictures frequently. Additionally, once I have a release working, I can update quickly.
