Online Store

Has anyone got any good suggestions of what module to use as an on-line store? I've noted there is a few to choose from, does anyone use one they would recommend?

I would like to sell services as well as merchandise for our club, when I say services I mean tickets to events, membership payments etc. Obviously web membership is free, but membership to the actual club is not. I would require a confirmation email to be sent to the treasurer and social secretary. Also how do these work in the sense of the transactions are the modules easily linked into banking sites such as PayPal etc?

I'm totally inexperienced in on-line stores.

Suggestions please.

CCart is very simple and good. I have used in the past. If you do not too many items to sell. You could always create the buttons on Pay Pal, add very simply to a custom block and done Very Happy

Thank you for your comments,

Yeah it's a mixture of things like jackets, hats etc and tickets to social events and payments for actual club membership etc ect. Just thought it would be easier than members sending emails and cheques in the post.

I'll have a look at CCcart. Failing that, I'm not looking to sell too much so I might give the button making Paypal idea some serious thought also.

How do they link into PayPal or something similar?
