Integrating XML Feed With Product Images

Hello,

My company is working towards developing a "Shop" page for our new website (as well as featuring products on the home page). We're partnered with a company that provides us with a daily xml feed, but it doesn't contain any product images... Essentially, we're looking to create custom pages that displays products, specs and search results.

I spoke with one freelancer that claimed to be able to scrape URLs to use for the product images (but wanted $10K to do it), and I've also heard that services such as 'IceCat' would work well, but we would require assistance putting this all together.

So I'm wondering, is anyone here able to help us use our XML feed and integrate it with the correlating product images (using WordPress)? I'll be more than happy to fill you in with more details if you think you could help/are up for the gig.

Thanks,
Mike

        Thank you both very much! You guys could have easily just said, "hire me," use the tool yourself and bank.... I appreciate you restoring my faith in humanity/forums. I'll be sure to pay it forward!

        Cheers,
