Are there any open source or low-cost online auction software packages available?

Question

I'm looking to create an eBay like website for a niche market. I would love to have eBay functionality from 5 years ago. I'm guessing on the timeframe, but what I mean is that I don't need 90% of the functionality that is there... no APIs, nothing fancy... just an online auction site.

Are there any open source packages avaialble for me to modify?

Are there any low-cost source code packages available?

Answer 2

The wayback machine has copies of codebase.ebay.com back to 2005. I'd definitely avoid this guy, though.

AJ Auction Pro which is the best php based and affordable auction script software which is available in language pack.
