Extensions???

I am not clear on your problem.  Is your site going to be a "virtual mall" with many independent vendors, or a large "store" with a single processing unit but many vendor products?  I am guessing from your email that it will be a "store."  In this case I am thinking this could be a logistics concern.  I would suspect that the client only wants to pay one shipping fee, rather than a fee for every transaction made to different vendors.  The initial approach would be to purchase products in bulk, warehouse them and send them out as your own product straight to the customer when the order is placed.  However, it raises cost and I am not sure you are looking to warehouse any inventory.  You could also do the on-time approach where each of your vendors send their product to a centralized location where the products can be packed and shipped to their respective customers.  Again, I am not sure if I am approaching the problem correctly, but if I have made some incorrect assumptions, a clearer picture of your dilemma may help us find a solution suitable for your needs. Khoi Le khoi@goeyelevel.com Hello Everyone, I have a colleague who wants me to design a site for him. The concept is one already being used, he has a list of people who want him to provide a virtual storefront for them. The site would provide a place for vendors to input their information and products. He wants to use PayPal for the processing and payment of  products. However if a user purchases a product from multiple vendors, I am unsure how that would be worked out. I am in the very initial stages of this project and would kindly take any advice from anyone who could offer some. Is there a Coldfusion extension out there that can assist me?
