Well, not easily. Ecommerce is rather large in the US, so it is what we would call a "target rich environment".

Start with defining your business. A shopping cart may be your answer, but you can't begin to make a decent selection without knowing what you want to do.

I am sure there are. Given the number of sites which use osCommerce, it is unlikely that there would not be SOMEONE out there who will use Magento live. Consider also that the project is under a...

Good question to which there is no good answer. The best for what?

Your criteria, free and easily customizable, would tend towards the use of Open Source carts. Some of the best known include...

Its a pleasure to be here. Looks like a LOT going on here.

I have some small experience with CRE Loaded.
