ecost.com... pretty much any click and mortar - mostly the click thing, though. What are you looking to buy?\n\nZ

Well, there's CafePress (http://www.cafepress.com/), which is a store you can set up and put your logos on products so people can buy them. The downside is that you don't physically have the products, and may never touch them unless you buy one for yourself.\n\nFor your situation, I would recommend the PayPal shopping cart. Just get an account, and go to this page (https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_cart-factory). It's like a shopping cart generator that is actually quite versatile. Just create your item and you'll get an HTML code.\n\nThis is perfect for when you don't want to deal with a whole lot of PHP coding in a big e-commerce solution. This shopping cart is really simple and easy to use; it helps people checkout in a separate window. Because it is a small HTML code no bigger than this paragraph, it is easy to integrate into an existing webpage.\n\nOnly downside is it only runs on PayPal, but it is definitely worth it.

osCommerce is a shopping cart system that is open source code that has mods that allow for downloads. Also PayPal is available. Getting the osCommerce setup is tricky and there are some companies that have ones set up with the popular MODS. I was going to do it with my Lunar Pages but I need to get Sercurity certs and I decided not to go to all of this trouble. I might have been better off to subscribe to the Services that have the OsCommerce already with the popular mods. \n\nIf you do do this on your own, you will need plenty of PHP programming familarity. It is a good idea to know a little about PHP anyway. If you go with a service that offers you the already customized OS Commerce (http://www.oscdox.com/ is one has MODS configures), you are better off. It is more $$$ then my Lunar pages. My Lunar pages are about $20 a month. If you go it alone, you will need to keep up on Securty problems and be ready to put patches in.\n\nThe OSCommerce is one of the less expensive solutions. Other solutions could be very expensive. There is CubeCart that might be easier. You need to buy the downlaod module from a third party. Basic CubeCart is also free & open source. The OSCommerce is much mote robust but harder. \n\nOther cart systems with downloads prob. don't support PayPal & might be very, very expensive. It is expensive to pay a programmer.\n\nI wish that I recalled the OSCommerce site that had good support and that offered a ready off the shelf OSCommerce with many MODS. Do a search in Google for OSCommerce. You will find more info on this cart system.\n\nAlso, there are Embroidery Malls that will sell your designs for you. Just be sure that you can live with their terms. You can sell via Embird if you own Embird software. I have some designs there but got no traffic. Embird is www.embird.com. I have tried ebay but too many sellers and one needs to lower their prices. I have sold via eBay. For eBay you need to email the files to the customer after they pay. At eBay the fees are too high. If you can get one of these carts working, that would be ideal. The cart could be a goal and one could start selling & emailing the designs. Criswell emails her designs to people. Of course she is well known. \n\nWith the cart system and downloads, the major problem is that you can be ripped off by buyers who have stolen credit cards. Yet, I would think that such problems that I've read about in carts & auto=downloads are in industries such as music that have plenty of crooks available. So far embroidery still is a small industry, yet now we are experiencing too many sellers, selling too cheap & not enough buyers. So, I don't want to discourage you from the cart System but just be aware of what you are up against.

Well, there really is no free software for this.  Rather, this is important to your company for tax's, employee managemnet ect.  A paid software would be Quick books.  Which if you buy 1 licence I believe it is about $500 US.  In the interm, check out the listed link for templates through Microsoft!  Good Luck!

there are several if you mean samples and freebies of products and merchandise, \nbut a word of caution, if you sign up for them, you will be bombarded with spam, emails, junk mail in your mailbox, that is why they are free.\nIf you mean trial versions and free versions of software, download.com is about the best

I agree above. osCommerce is simply the best way to go, especially if you're on a budget. Even if you're not on a budget, it's still great to have. It supports major payment getaways and shipping modules and has so many available functions in the contribution center.\n\nNow for one that is used must by large and well-known companies? You will not find them using osCommerce. Major companies do not buy software, nor do they download it. They hire programmers that willl create a shopping cart specially made to fit the company's needs. Sometimes these online stores or websites can be multi-million dollar projects!

If it is a standalone shopping cart you are looking for that supports all the major payment outlets like paypal, then I recommend osCommerce. The only thing I don't like is it doesn't out of the box allow for a "news" front page, but when combined with that sort of CMS also, they become a very nice combination.
