    If you are not afraid of investing some bucks on hiring a designer ( to make a unique, fresh looking template ), go for osCommerce !

    There are many software..

    The best one must be:
    1. always keep updated,
    2. very stable version,

    osCommerce is one of the best I think..

    there is so many software around the www. I am sure there is some in your hosting package free and paid. You will find many people posting the URL of their website here. If they do and that makes no sence for you just click the report button and make DP a better place.

    What?? OSC is terrible. In the long-run it'll cost a lot more. It's really simple to get up at first, but any time you want to make changes, the amount of time it takes the developers starts to increase exponentially.
