PayPal and Commissions
Here's a couple ideas that I've been thinking about for ClassiPress.
Idea #1: What if buyers could actually pay for an item via PayPal that someone is selling directly from the listing page? The seller could add in there own PayPal email address, etc. in the MyDashboard area and once an item is purchased, PayPal would send back a message that the item was sold and remove it and/or mark it as sold.
Idea #2: This one sort of goes with idea #1. What if the site admin could earn a commission on each item sold? So listing an item would be free (or there could be a listing fee too), and once it sells, site admin earns X amount and has it send to the admin PayPal account?
Maybe these could be add-on plugins for ClassiPress or maybe added to the core application?
Thoughts?
