Hi Shel,

WP eStore is great for small scale products or downloads. Otherwise I would
look into WooCommerce or Jigashop. Both are WP e Commerce plugins. Add ons
for certain merchant integrations (beyond PayPal) like Authorize.net or
connecting to USPS online are available at a one time fee of  about $49.00

I would dump Zen Cart all together.

For large scale or something new PrestaShop has been voted #1 open source
commerce CMS for 2 maybe the last 3 years: http://www.prestashop.com/
It is a really amazing e commerce platform.

April
