Hi Guys, I have been trying to find but all I can find was Marketplace. I needed something like Marketplace but without letting public Users to set the pricing. Users create their profile which in this case is registered membersAdmin will create different categories in the website like : Home, About Us, Gallery ( This will act as a Product Page with different sub categories ), Products, Contact UsUsers can upload their "Products" in our Galleries with the following limitations :Users can upload their "Products" in our Gallery or Products or any Products related section. Not About Us, Contact Us.Users will be able to upload only a fix number of "Products" depending on the membership fee they purchase from usUsers will not be able to set their "Product" prices, Admin will set itAdmin can also filter which "Product" to delete or approveUploaded "Product" will also be able to navigate from the Uploader's ProfileAny "Products" that is being sold, % amount of the sales will be credited into their account or any other payment method ( Kindly advise on this )Not sure whether is it confusing. Hope you guys understand. Thanks guys in advance.
I do not exactly know the marketplace extension, but I think, it should be possible to change the template/controller logic of this module, to prevent that resellers can define a custom product price.
Perhaps you can ask the developers of marketplace if they would customize the extension to your needs. The support for payed magento extensions is very often better than expected.

I am developing a website in Magento and I need to develop the following functionality.
1) Products are added in the back end as devices and services.
2) All the Products are displayed on the homepage together.
3) If a user buys a products (device) then he will also require to buy another product related to that product (service).
4) In short he can't proceed without purchasing service product.
5) So if user buys Device product then he will compulsory will have to select one of the service products available for that product.
6) Also a user can't buy the service product only.. To buy the service product he will have to also purchase the device product.
This is what I am trying to develop but have got stuck on this point.
I have tried the best way to explain my problem. Any help, ideas will be welcome..
Thanks.
You issue solves easily with bundle products.
Create the 'Device' product as a bundle product.
All services should be also products that won't be visible individually.
Add bundle option for the 'Device' that contains as options (selections) the services you need. (off topic: you can even set different prices for the same service but different devices).
Make the bundle option required.
Save the product- > reindex everything -> profit.
Adding to the above answer, This free extension will solve your problem http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/display-bundle-product-s-bundled-items-images-19391.html
I'm trying to build an ecommerce website based on Magento but having a regular shop behaviour, instead of showing product prices, i want visitors to ask for an estimate for a single or several products (by adding them to a cart and then asking for a global estimate).
As a store manager, I should get these estimate requests by email along with customer information (name, email, phone, company, address .. )
Is this achievable with Magento?
If not, which cms/platform would be best suitable for such a project?
Not without some customization. You could put all your products in with a price of $0 and then change your theme so all the buttons say "request a quote" and the price isn't displayed anywhere. Then the checkout page might not ask for credit card info, but I'm not certain about that. If it did you would have to remove that part of the checkout module. Once a user finished checking out you would get an email with all their information. I don't think this is the best way to go about getting what you want though.
I don't know if other ecommerce platforms have what you are looking for. I'm not very familiar with them beyond Magento. But you could certainly use something like drupal or wordpress to build a site and have a request a quote form on it. This would only be managable with a small number of products though.
there is many extension available for this type features.link 1

Is it possible to build an extension that do these things:

auto create a product category and do related permission settings after creating a back-end user role
auto add related permission after users of the role creating a product
Set related permission to the role with Magento default function
Not good at explaining, hope this helps...
I found an extension which does exactly this. Here's what it says it can do:
This extension converts your store to a multiple sellers platform. The
admin can set the commission for each seller. The seller is able to
login from the frontend to track their sales and payout from the My
Account page.
We are creating a flash sale site and need to be able to filter our Order Reports by brand and export this data so that we can quickly and accurately create Purchase Orders for them after the sale has been run. Right now, we are only able to filter orders by period and order status etc, but we cannot see without clicking on each order what was purchased and from what brand.
Can anyone help us here?
Thank you!

Using Magento i want to create website where user can upload their products to sale, is it possible in magento ?
You can easily create a website to handle that, Magento give you an API that you can easily consume for creating products, etc ...

But, why not just give your users an access to their webshop Administration area?
Its better you to create module for add products by users from their my account area. Check the saveAction in Mage/Adminhtml/Controllers/Catalog/ProductController.php .You may get more idea how to save product.
If you are planning to add only some members to add their products through backend, its better you to create users and assign permissions to add products from backend.
