clone script or where to buy from.

Just looked at some of the sites and it seems they have a db backend. So your not going to be able to clone them 100%

You can write a proxy script to retrieve the info when not found, then use a web scrapper to pull out the info you need and then insert into a template ready to display. I do something similar at work to scrap a suppliers website to insert into my application. Just learn howto use libcurl and off you go.

Have fun!!!!

Can you clone it and create a admin section what will it cost
 
LOL, every one of those is our client and I can assure you that you can not and will not be able to merely 'clone' one of those sites. Those sites have teams of full time developers working on them and are not Mickey Mouse set up and leave alone sites. I would put your idea to bed now and avoid disappointment.
 
For around R7,000 you can have any of these sites cloned by professional coders. Just check 'Freelance web programmers'. You might even find cheaper coders/programmers from India or Vietnam. Never give up.

NathanCrow is your boss and he wants to find out if there is someone here on myBB to replace you if he fires you.
I could do that side for +R40k

Yet you make an assumption without knowing the specifications, you look at the front end and assume you know the backend, the industry and the dynamics.

At the OP'er, if you are serious about this and would like to pursue this then you do not want to be the merchant (the one actually recieving the phones) as I guarantee you that you do not have the capital to start a venture like this (an assumption by me now) and there are just too many established companies doing this that you would need to be special. Join an affiliate network that has all these merchants already on. They will be able to provide you a daily updated XML/CSV datafeed. You then make a 'shopping comparison site' and just pass the sale onto one of those companies. You are credited with a commission rather than actually receiving the phones and you make money with little risk. You only need to maintain that and will not need any employees other than some ongoing maintenance work.

LOL 1000% because I understand.

Our company does content management and so few people actually understand what is involved. But yeah, let him go ahead and do it as he will then only appreciate what it takes and the effort involved.

But then again its the South African Business way of trying to do everything yourself.
