Do you have a database included in your web server package?

Might want to look at OSCommerce (also open source). It's a full on web store system but it looks like it would take some effort to customise the look, most web sites I've seen using it stand out as using it.

How often do your products change (inventory and price)?

The reason I ask is that I developed my own shopping system for my online shop which uses cookies to track the cart contents and sends the whole lot to Paypal or Google Checkout when the customer decides they want to buy. I use a database to store product descriptions, prices, paths to images etc. but it doesn't have a nice interface for adding or editing products so it's a bit of a pain for product management if changes are needed regularly.
