How much would it cost to build an e-commerce website like Ebay?
Ebay is an application that allows every user to signup, provide shipping info, and buy everything they need. If needed, a user can also start selling their own items as well - he just needs to make a couple of photos, set description and price, and he is ready to go!
To help users find products faster, eBay also provides a sophisticated filter and sorting mechanisms, allows a user to add items to a watch list, and so on.
If you would like to create an app similar to eBay - let's figure out how much time it can take, and all the cost to run a website like eBay. If you don't need some of the features - just check those items off, and it will update the estimation.
Let's select an hourly rate first:
This is a rate for a team of beginner developer and trainees. The price will be cheaper. However, it can take longer to finish a project.
This is an hourly rate for a team of middle level developers. This is a great value choice in case your project is not time critical.
Team with a mix of middle level developers and seniors. Most experienced developers will help with architecture, optimization, and will guide others to help you make the best of your idea.
A team of senior developers. There is nothing they can't do. Expensive, but the result will be top notch: pixel perfect design, great performance, and best user experience possible.

Total price for a marketplace app similar to eBay () with a selected set of features would be around ${{calculateTotalCosts(ebayEstimations)}}. Development itself would take {{calculateTotalHours(ebayEstimations)}} hours (or around {{hoursToWeeks(calculateTotalHours(ebayEstimations))}} weeks).
