I was talking with Cookie Monster and we both seemed to agree that a games auction site would be a decent thing to have on SR, for people getting rid of their unwanted games, maybe even get decent prices for them and stop getting ripped off by trading them in at game for £20, what do you think??

You ask for the server specs quite a lot. Are you setting up your own site or something??

From a technical POV (Bore!) auction sites are quite hard to code, as they need to be updated regularly, and PHP doesn't do this.

You would have to set it so it gets updated every time there's a page request, which could lead to an exceptionally unresponsive server.
