Comparison Shopping Engine

We need a comparison shopping engine (shopbot) built on the following premise: 1. The shopbot will Search 5-15 different online retailers (vendors) for product specs, prices, availibility etc and return results to the searcher. 2. The vendor's products can vary from Hotels, Airfares, Cellphones, Books etc (each product will have its vendors pre-selected automatically from our list). 3. Searcher will sort through the vendors based on the different parameters like Price, Availibilty, Shipping costs etc. 4. Searcher will click on desired item and add to cart, sent to vendor and complete payment. Should have a full fledged Admin panel with user level access rights.
