You might be lucky...
There was a popular content site for sale a couple years called Ounique
The sales price was never posted, but I emailed the owner and found out that the price was $25000
A couple months ago, customers were notified that they should make sure that they downloaded all their content from the archives since the site was going offline... like now... if it hasn't happened already.
The point is... you may not have $25000... and the previous owner never did find a buyer... but he might be willing to either sell you the store a greatly reduced cost since he is currently getting $0.00... or he might be willing to sell you the store script
Otherwise, you probably need to get with a programmer and pay him to modify a merchant script such as OsCommerce
Personally, I would try to get the Ounique script, name, etc if you are looking to do this full time. In case you don't know... Ounique was a content store that began in November 1998. They were a very successful brokerage store where photographers sent content (pictures and videos) with their model releases and picture IDs - so it was full 2257 compliant. They made about 50% of the sales price and the other half went to the author. Maybe it was that they made 60%... I forget now.
I really thought about this... for two years... but never wanted to part with the money. Now, since the owner got zip... I'm sure the price has fallen.
