ARGH!! I cannot create an ebay trading application

Hello Everybody.

Im a brand new user so if this post is in the wrong area please don't shout at me.

I've been programming in PHP for about a year now so am competent but by no means a pro.

I decided to try to develop an ebay application that will allow me to list and revise items on my ebay account. I created an account on the ebay developer forum and have been able to create a simple tool that will search the api for items, filter them and sort them. That wasn't too difficult. So I thought I would move on to create a trading application.

I began to follow the first tutorial and it is useless... it throws you right in at the deep end by assuming I already have a program that can interact with the ebay server using my account token.

Does anybody know of any decent tutorials that can clearly explain how I can take the first steps to create an application that will allow me to list and revise an auction. One which is actually step-by-step as opposed to assuming-a giant-leap then step by step.
