Hi,
I need a module for an e-shop solution for Drupal 5.2. I guess the ecommerce module fits my needs. The requirement is this:
I want users to be able to exchange/buy/sell goods through the store. The buyer will pay the seller through PayPal and I want to keep a small percentage (or maybe a standard amount) of the payment as fee for this transaction. When two users exchange goods (no payment involved), I also want a small fee from either the byer or seller, or both. What else do I need besides the e-commerce module to implement this requirement? Of course, users should be able to post their goods at this store for selling.
There are a few modules for e-commerce stuff in d.o., however I'm a bit confused how to use those and if they fit my needs, so I would appreciate a response from experienced users.
Thanks in advance,

Sorry those empty mails were a mistake.
I have not used the ecommerce module with both buyer and seller involved. The seller was my client and configuring e-com module was simple.
Your requirement is very interesting.

Hi,
This is not available in v3.x, however the commissions module has been created in v4 which will allow you to develop the actually calcs for your situation, and then commission will handle the rest.
It is not 100% complete yet, but this will also manage the paying of people the commissions, which at first will be via paypal's mass pay, but any solution can be used to create the payments. I am also playing to allow payment via cheque.

Hi Gordon,
Thanks for your answer. And keep up the great work for this excellent module, the code itself is bigger than Drupal. :-)
Anyway, I need something now and don't have the luxury of time to wait for the 4.0 release. So, any further ideas will surely be appreciated.
