Job ID: 38456774

Budget: $1,500 – $3,000 USD

I'm looking to create an online store that specializes in selling both appliance and HVAC parts. This store will cater to all types of appliances including kitchen, laundry, and small home appliances across all brands.

Key Features:
- Comprehensive product range covering all appliance and HVAC parts
- Customer support service
- Parts sale
- Parts installation
- Full repair service

Ideal Skills:
- E-Commerce website development
- Customer service management
- Knowledge in appliance and HVAC parts
- Experience in providing installation and repair services
- SEO and digital marketing skills to promote the store

In brief, I need to create a website similar to searspartsdirect.com with some additional features such as part selection on a diagram and the development of a mobile application. The catalog includes 5 million items, and we also have a supplier's website. If possible, I'm interested in pulling data, including prices and stock levels, from the supplier's site to ours. There are two types of stock statuses: "in stock" and "back ordered." The budget is negotiable.
