GoDaddy used to have a shopping cart app. Little pricey .... But I can say they do give better than average service.
It is not entirely turn key however they do have all the products such as SSL certs and Merchant accounts that can be plugged in which makes it a one stop shop. Much better than say oscommerce.

no good deed goes unpunished...I think all 'e-commerce' packages are
going to fall into this category

Have him sign up on a virtual web host system that is set up to provide
all of this for him - pick a template and run with it.
e-commerce doesn't just work with a casual administrative effort since
there are so many disciplines involved, necessary to stay on top of for
security risks and when it comes down to it, choosing from a template is
never going to give you the feel of a custom web site anyway. Then you
have to deal with SSL Certificates, regulations on storing credit card
information, agreement with banks/paypal/etc. for handling credit card
transactions and if you're not willing to make the commitment to the
time and energy to do it, use a web host that will do it all for you
(i.e. godaddy.com)
