Well I wouldn't put a price on anything yet. It depends if it can compete against ModernBill, WHMAutoPilot, Drams, ClientExec and all of those other great billing systems that I don't know about.

I don't mean to sound against this idea, as I had this idea myself, but only for my own business. It is possible to be as good as these systems, but do keep in mind of the time that it has taken to develop these systems.

The real questions are:
- Are you able to answer support questions?
- Are you ready to keep developing new versions such as bug fixes?
- How will you advertise your system?
- What is going to be the incentive for people to buy your script?

And many other questions that I'm too tired to think of right now :D But if you're ready for this, then good luck because they all had to start somewhere :P
