hi,

i am relatively new to oscommerce and have been tinkering with setting up a gold/silver shop for BitCoins (BTC, www.bitcoin.org for more info).
I was thinking if it were possible to fetch gold/silver spot prices to price the items in their respective spot value+x...

as in "spot+5%" or "1.05" for a margin of 5% above spot or
as in "+3" for "spot + 3 [secondary currency]"


effectively, the prices would then be denominated in USD, I do have a tool that fetches the USD/BTC to display BTC prices.

Could that be done (obviously not by me...)?
I think it might be done via some module / plugin...

If so, would someone like to do it?
I would gladly arrange for compensation - if you would like to shoot me a message (bitcoincommodities__NOSPAM__@googlemail.com.

I'm equally thankful for whatever input you might have for me.

Cheers
BTCcomm

I know how to setup the above solution, but it's pointless to use the gold and silver as currencies...
