    I have just invested money in a great domain and ordered some products from China that i am gonna sell.
    But i never owned an eCommerce before so i have some questions.

    I have these eCommerce in my "Fantastico install" but dont know what to choose:
    CubeCart
    OS Commerce
    Zen Cart

    Can you change languge on these? I want the shop in Swedish.

    Can i change templates? Or i have to use the regular template.

    Is it hard to install all settings that make people order and pay, i would like to use Paypal.

    Cheers

    I'd recommend Os Commerce - it is very flexible and widely used so there will be plenty of support/forums for templates and if you get into any trouble.

    Is it easy to add payment method to the shop? Example Paypal, where you can use VISA and other cards.

    I use Zencart for all my ecommerce website. It can easily do all those things you said you want to do.

    Zeuscart is the best free ecommerce shopping cart software.

    I can strongly suggest Magento for ecommerce. It's a wonderful platform now to manage your shopping cart.

    Of the ones you gave I like OS Commerce the best but have a look at Opencart. Opencart is my e-commerce platform of choice.

    There's also open cart and magento.

    I am currently using a custom coded cart because of the features we need.

    osCommerce is very flexible, but make sure you google how to secure it -- and dont use osCommerce 3.0 its still not ready for prime time! Opencart is great, but everything costs -- but I use it and love it. Magento is the ultimate, but it is HUGE and unless you are on a dedicated server, it can slow down on shared hosting! Zencart is a variant of osCommerce, I dont like it as much -- but I do love the admin area!
    Good Luck!

    Choose Magento commerce shopping cart software for running of your e-shops.. it is considered to be the best as it has so many useful functions for running e-commerce sites.
