Magento OR OpenCart OR osCommerce OR Zen Cart OR WP e-Commerce OR WooCommerce

I would add some hosts have 1 click installs for some open source e-commerce and then auto upgrades.  That could make your live easier as it sounds to me you only want a simple e-commerce system so pretty much any opensource system will do the job for you.

Most systems support paypal by default, but paypal rates are not the best, but if your not selling much then they are still the best option as proper payment gateways have monthly costs, so only make sense if your doing decent numbers (and they can take some work to get setup).

You forgot Cs-cart which is widely - I'd take some time to research that as well as to UI is very easy to use and its super versatile

This is really a decision that you need to make. It is akin to asking what kind of vehicle you should buy. If I were in your situation what I would do is write out a feature list that I want and find which platform closely integrates with it.

Also, if you are not on a hard deadline play with them all before you make a decision. Then you will know what you are getting into.

Hi Chris, i am not able to found much themes for Cs-cart on themeforest, Do you have any other website where I can find more themes?

[GPainter]

You can view some of the live stores here - http://www.cs-cart.com/live-stores.html

There are some themes here - http://marketplace.cs-cart.com/themes.html

Cs-cart is fully customizable so in general most developers will be able to make any theme you want for it.

Hi Lesley, Is there any way to try all of them at free (like DEMO)? to check there feature etc.

[PaddyDisplays]

I agree with lesley, make a short list of which platforms your are looking at, make a list of what you want, then see which ones check the most boxes.  Might be worth visiting the forums of each and asking questions there.

I see a lot of comments about the lack of support of some gateways for WooCommerce. To the poster who mentioned BluePay Woo Commerce. I completely disagree, in fact, I think there is more merchant support from WooCommerce than any other popular platform today. Yeah, I said it

[LesleyPaone]

I am sorry you feel that way, but you are wrong. It looks like woo only supports around 125 payment methods (gateways and offline type methods such as P.O's and such). With only 14 free ones that only include one top tier US payment company (Amazon).

Check out something like Prestashop. Between the main site and all of the 3rd party merchant sites, they support around 300 different gateways and methods. With most top tier gateways in the US being free, such as Auth.net, Bluepay, First Data, Paypal business, Paypal Advanced, ect. So while Woo does have good payment support, it is costly and not near the best coverage.
