I am planning to setup an online store separate but linked to my existing web page. I am looking for a web based platform that is simple, and has a nice interface.
For now the store would be a place holder, a way to list and sell a few items, and for processing credit card transactions.
In the future I would likely use it to list a few hundred items at the most. I don't plan to make allot of income with it in the short term, so monthly costs would be a concern.
Any reviews I can seem to find seem to be pretty biased and push one service or another, and bash the rest. I am looking for some honest opinions based on actual experience.
In the long term I may hire a professional web developer, although that is out of my budget at this time.
Of course security, reliability, uptime, and compatibility, come first over other requirements. The last thing I want are peoples shopping carts bugging out, or something because their browser is a year old.
