Message:: [QUOTE="Alegandron, post: 2931598, member: 51347"]For my major auction bidding and purchases, I have excel spreadsheets that I have built. I review the Terms and Conditions, and impute ALL of the costs and overheads associated for a Fully Loaded Landed Cost for me should I win it.  As the auction progresses, I can quickly update this Fully Loaded Cost so I know EXACTLY to the cent (I round to a dollar or $5, dependent on significance.)  Purdy simple stuff that Greg is suggesting as an Universal Auction interface.  If the Buyer is registered, as he suggests, then the interface would have all the personal attributes of the Buyer to calculate the Hammer Price (Country shipped to, shipping costs, Seller profit, duties inbound to that country, etc. etc .)  Honestly, purdy easy stuff for an astute programmer to develop.  Hey, wait:  I want my Royalties and Commissions for this suggestion... I will share with Greg... <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />  This is the re-thinking approach that I have been involved with years.  Too many times I have heard "It can't be done" or  "It is too complicated", etc.  Break-throughs are created by rethinking from the END-USER's / CONSUMER's perspective...
