Hi Guys, I've been researching online marketplaces and decided to finally start mine, however, I'm a little stuck. The website I'm looking to build is very complex. Its a multi vendor marketplace exactly like Swappa.com, I'm basically looking to clone the site, minus the niche of electronics. Its user to user rather than a vendor having their own storefront. I've browsing Fiverr, asked a few local businesses on how much they would charge to build it. The cost the local shops are asking is $10,000 starting. The fiverr users I've found are around $2000 or less, (Bangladesh, china, etc. )

Heres my question.
Should I learn to make it myself? My dilemma is that if I learn to do it myself, it will take months if not years for a single person to develop something so complex. The Pro to hiring would be efficiency, time frame would be less than a month, and it would be done correctly.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.
