E-Commerce Website Noobie

[Moshambi]

Hello Everyone,

I have a friend who wants a website to sell merchandise. What I am wondering is how I would go about doing this. Would I use something like PayPal's API or is there anything else out there? All tips and pointers are appreciated.

Thanks,

Mosh
