Looking for shopping cart
I'm looking for some shopping cart software. Here are my needs:
- Built in 2Checkout.com integration
- Completely customizable look
- Real-time shipping calculations based on recipient location and product weight
- The above for both US and Canada
- PHP based
- MySQL based
- A version is available with no bugs, or a minimum of bugs
- Free/Open Source
If any of you know of a shopping cart that even comes close to filling all these requirements, I would greatly appreciate the info.

If it isn't free, I would need to be able to pay once and use it on any of the sites I build.

OSCommerce ?
I know it is PHP and MySQL based, 2Checkout is supported (I just checked) and it can calculate shipping based on location and product weight.
Customisable look may be tricky to implement but it can be done well (http://www.bydon.org/shop)

I would recommend oscommerce too, you will find that its got one of the biggest followings for a free shopping cart, the support is good and also there are so many contributions free of charge.
I had one installed last year and works a treat if it wasnt for my crappy hosting company tat kept changing stuff on the server.

Thanks, guys. I starting working on an installation of OSCommerce earlier this week, and it's looking good so far.

Check out one and one internet. If you buy a domain you get a free 30 day trial of their cart. I know its only about £10 a month for the basic set up and if you go ahead after the trial you get 2 months off!
Can't say if its actually any good as i haven't used it but the features seem good (Froogle interaction, different payments accepted, templates etc.):
