Nathan,

I'll using OScommerce, which is PHP & MySQL. Works quite well and handles 
orders, credit cards, shipping (will work with USPS, UPS & Fedex servers to 
get pricing), taxes. You can use PayPal with it and even let the customer 
display prices in Euros. 

OSCommerce is fairly easy to set up and very easy to administer. There are 
hundreds of live stores around the world using it.

Your can download it from www.oscommerce.com and you can see a working site 
(mine) at http//www.viewcamerastore.com/catalog/

Documentation is a little sparse but If you've got any questions about 
OScommerce I can try to answer them for you.
