Spike!
Hey there, I speak fluent English, and lived in the US for 9 years before moving here to Europe. I bid $30 for exactly what you described in your proposal and that is advice on and help with Magento.
I have imported 1000's of SKU's into Magento and do this often. I have and import script which is about 100 times faster than native Magento import. Anyway we can get into all the ins and out of that when we have our skype conference or email conference.
I have been working on huge magento projects for the past 5 years and consider myself one of the top freelancers for the platform, just read my reviews. Anyway because this job is just for an initial consult, you really can't lose.
So I'm here all day on standby. Let me know if your interested and we'll see if we are a working match.
