I want a program created that will help automate my listing creation for drop shipping. I want the program to integrate with my eBay Blackthorne Pro account to create customized listings using the template I have already used in Turbo Lister.
I would like the program to scrape a specific site each day and update the listings already created as well as create new listing depending on my preference. The program should automatically get the product's title, price, download up to 4 images and save them to a local harddrive folder for later uploading through FileZilla to my image hosting site, as well as technical details of the product, and product description (within the detail and description sections, links, javascript, advanced features like ajax, etc. and interactive features should be removed before placing into listing template).
If possible I'd also like the program to integrate with the custom Excel spreadsheet I have created to track profits and losses. The automatically updated fields are link to site with item, name (with shortened name), cost to purchase, shipping cost, handling cost (if any), and the selling price (this field will be manually edited with the updated price being automatically updated into Blackthorne).
Attached are images that show an example listing that should be able to be scraped.
This may require knowledge of C++, JAVA, Access, SQL, XML. I am not quite sure what programming language would be easiest.
It really is a simple program and should be simple for someone who has experience programming. In summary the program: scrapes a specific site for product's name, price, shipping cost, picture (up to 4), technical details, and product description. It downloads the pictures to a local folder for later manual upload to image hosting site. It automatically updates information in Excel file as well as Blackthorne so that the listing is automatically created with minimal human interaction.
Please email me if you have any further questions.
This could easily become a long-term position as I have further customization ideas for this program and will need to be updated.
Happy bidding!
