Forgive me for the OT post, but this is unfamiliar territory for me and I know that many of you have experience with this sort of thing...

I am looking into setting up a website that has online purchase capabilities. I will need it to be able to add items to a shopping cart, go to checkout, shipping and handling charges applied, etc. These will not be downloadable items and they will need to be shipped to the customer.

What good/bad experiences has anyone had with setting up an online store? Does anyone have any suggestions for me as far as where i can set up an account?

thank you for your help,
Brooke
