The WordPress Auction Plugin is a plugin that can help WP webmasters transform their site into an online marketplace.
Admins and users can create auctions and publish them via the plugin, allowing other site users to place a bid and offer to buy it.
Once the auction has expired, the highest bidder is considered the winner and he'll buy the product from the owner.
All in all a pretty simple mechanism, sticking to the classic features and pattern of classic auction scripts, only this one is perfectly integrated with the WP platform.
Installation:
Unpack and upload it to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.
The plugin is available under a dual licensing model. There's a GPL licensed version for everyone to use freely, and there are two commercial licenses, with additional extra features.
