I want a shopping cart

Hi, I hope you can help me get started, I list a few queries below.

I want to set up a shopping cart selling UK fire service memorabilia, I need to list approx 1000 items with a brief description and price.

1. I would use paypal as a payment system.

2. normally my items would only be one off - (1 x 1956 model fire engine for example) not multiples.

3. When some one buys a product does it remove the item from the shopping cart so that it can not be purchased again.

4. I have downloaded Zen Cart - do I upload all the files to my host company and from there some how log into the files to make changes - like business name, contact details and products for sale. (a brief how to would be good)

5. I have several websites (not shopping carts) that I have built, I am currently using Web Page Maker, and have also used Web Easy Pro, both are WYSIWYG. would I include the shopping cart within a website, or is Zen Cart a complete package.

I have spent a lot of time looking through the forum but can not seem to find clear answers to my questions, I am sorry if this is the wrong way to go about this, but your help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks
Graham

Graham,

Welcome to Zen Cart!

#3 - settings in admin control this ~ yes you can set your site up to subtract item from inventory when purchased.

#4 - Yes upload files to your server. You will also need to create a database. Login credentials for admin panel are set up during zc_install process.

#5 Zen Cart is the total package.
