    Hey,

    I'm starting my own online store and one of my competitors uses exactly the same supplier as me. As a result they sell all of the same products, in the same categories, with the same prices, etc etc.

    I'm looking for somebody to build me a scraper that can scrape the product pages for their product name, category, description and the product price, I'd also like it to scrape the name of the product image used (eg - plantpot.jpg) and dump these in to an excel database. Basicaly I'm asking for a complete scrape of the product info put in to an excel database. The site has about 2000 products, I'll be using this thing once just to populate my website, it won't be used regularly.

    Please post quotes here.

    Thanks

    PS - NO pm's.

    The competitor in question is http://tinyurl.com/m4csep

    If it would be easier to just dump in to mysql rather than excel thats ok, just do whatever is easier (I should be able to convert between them myself anyway). If that is the case, the shopping cart I'll be dumping into is oscommerce.
