    x-cart will accommodate all your needs.

    X-cart is smarty template based, so it's quite easy. I'm no super programmer and i was able to tweak it to my needs and there is alot of support in their community forum and alot of paid modules.

    Couple sites I have developed running it:
    www.lifetimecollective.com
    www.saxxapparel.com

    Check -must be able to integrate with Quickbooks POS
    Check -will want gift registry services for the site
    Check -Will probably have a smaller inventory initially (50-60 items) but will eventually probably include their entire inventory (hundreds of items).

    Let me know if you have any other questions...happy to help

    • x-cart looks pretty robust, but still, would rather hand-code templates rather than have them generated for me...pastpastdue
    • There are so many elements to a page and products, you cannot simply handcode a template, i think the've approached it a way that allows the most fliexibility for your design. and when your are done with your templates. You can generate a HTML file for every page allowihng ultimate speedeffour
