I did have plans for it, but a few days of studying various feeds has left me with an all too real appreciation of the logistics involved in a PC site. So I figured I would see if anyone is interested in buying it.

Rather than roll your own, have you thought about building a simple "meta" price comparison search engine site - something along the lines of Booking Buddy but for price comparison? You've got a great domain name for it, and the code would be straight forward.

Just have a main search box at the top which will fire off a query to Kelkoo / Dealtime etc. (they all have their own affiliate programs); and then just spend a little time on some simple SEO across niche product categories that are featured on the big price comparison sites but don't have so much SEO competition.

Wouldn't take too long to build, and is at least something to do with it if you can't find a buyer.

Yeah I guess. I would prefer to find a buyer, moreso now I have had some appraisals on domain forums.
