Hi m8,
Right now I am using ecommerce and got to say its good and quite simple. Personally I would get ecommerce put up on my website. I have seen some websites with Cubecart and they look alright to me.
Hope this helps

OSCommerce is my choice.

Great support forum with many contributions to customise your store.

Only downside is that it can be quite daunting for those wish to customise the design or incorporate contributions.

But then why walk your dog, when you can pay somebody to walk it for you!!!!

I would also recommend Oscommerce, it's easy to install and to use. I would also definitely recommend that you change the design, because the one you got when you start is really not good!!

I use oscommerce because its free! make sure you back every thing up when making changes though, making the slightest mistake can bugger everything up!

I suggest you to get the Oscommerce for free and buy a nice template for it.

I wrote an article on what sort of features you may be interested in when considering an ecommerce package, take a look at Shopping Cart

This may help or may not It also lists some free and paid for solutions.
