A need of using shopping cart is coming. I checked several free carts including oscommerce, paypal, and two offered from hosting company. It seems a bit unclear to me why people would use 3rd-party shopping cart and link to Paypal gateway, but not use Paypal's own free shopping cart? I believe that all or most 3rd-party shopping carts require store owner's database space, but using Paypal's cart does not. Does this unique feature make a pro or con for Paypal cart? I see no advantage except using the storefront/productdisplay layout from 3rd-party shopping carts (Paypal's cart doesn't provide storefront/productdisplay layout). So why should I use 3rd party shopping carts, but not Paypal's? Am I missing something here?
Thanks for any comments.
