From what I have seen, all the free ones have their drawbacks. … I like cubecart better than zen cart. But to tell you the truth, first time I tried it – I didn't get very far. It makes so much more sense now that I have an understanding of programming!

So my suggestion: Try cubecart but don't trust their shipping calculations too much. There is a $2 rural charge for my town that they don't seem to know about. So it is always $2 short on shipping. … I ended up just making it $5 flat-rate shipping no matter what you order.

You don't need anything to start an e-commerce store. What you might need to do is the following.

1. Go to your town clerk's and get an application to do business under another name. this is called a "DBA" or "Doing Business As". use the domain name that you will use on the web as your new DBA

2. Once you have your DBA, you can go to your state dept website as look up a "resale tax certificate" What this does is allow you to collect taxes on products sold, and this is also used for you to buy good at wholesale from vendors.

Assuming that what you will be selling you will need to get wholesale.

3. This are very easy forms and very easy for you to get, once you are on your way to making money look into incorporating your self either as a LLC of a Corp. this is good if you get bigger because it protects you from any legal issues.

But to be honest for the most part if you don't need to buy anything wholesale you really don't need much. The above (1 and 2) are good to have because it makes you a legal business.

below I have given a website or too that might help

Good luck

To have your website look appealing and professional, you need to get web space and a domain name. Yahoo! has a great small business package. They also have very easy site building tools. You need to get a merchant account. This will allow you to accept credit cards on your site. If you have decent credit, try major financial institutions. If you have poor credit, get a pay pal merchant account.
You need to go to your town hall, and register your trade name. Then go to your state or province's web site and figure out what type of sales tax you will need to pay. Fill out the forms, and get a tax ID number.
E-stores made from drop-shipped merchandise can be a great way to get into business. It is inexpensive startup, and will help you get necessary experience.

25-30k is the going rate that professional web-production companies charge (and rightly so) for high-functionality web applications, such as ecommerce sites.

One I found that seems to fill the bill is Cameleon Commerce Suite. (Yes, that's the way they spell it!) I'm sure there must be others.
