    I would still recommend VirtueMart. You can easily hack the codes to customize it as per your need.

    what makes an ecommerce good on the front end is its simplicity. directed and focused interface so to speak.

    which is better? opencart or oscommerce?

    Sorry but I liked virtuemart and it was easy for me to change code. I tried oscommerce and it was a pain to install. I even used it through fantastico and it was a no go.

    Virtuemart is a joomla addon so there are many possibilities here.

    Once other worth looking at is Zencart often available as a cpanel install.
