Hey guys im only new to the forum, iv come over from boards as i wasnt getting very far with a specific question. Basically im looking at setting up an online video game store. Id be selling merchandise aswell as doing my own reviews. The thing im struggling with the most is which shopping cart to choose. There seems to be so many and i just cant settle on one. The top three at the moment are volusion, magento and zencart. I like zencart because its open source and has nice features, volusion and magento are neck and neck but again i cant decide and which is best. All link with sage pay which is good.
The site would needs to be able to display store items within the regular content of the site, for example if you where reading a review for a new game id like to be able to display items from the store in a side bar or something. I cant seem to find whether any of these carts will allow me to put up articles and such as well as my stock.
A friend of mine suggested that i embed wordpress within the shopping cart so the cart only handles stock and WP handles the articles and reviews. But by doing this wouldnt each user need to create two accounts in order to buy from the store as well as comment on reviews? Any help with this problem would be great, the momentum on the project is greatly slowing down because if the shopping cart conundrum. Thanks guys
