My mother sells these little collectables in her store that I've fallen in love with and I think they'll sell well online, but here's my problem.

I want to set up an affiliate program that will give customers credit towards free merchandise for sending sales. My problem is finding a shopping cart that will do that. I've looked at Zen cart, but after reading the manual I need a degree just to customize the damn thing. Is there a cart that's easy to work with that has this function or should I go with a 3rd party processor that deals with products and go through their affiliate set up?

Anyone got any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks babe. I didn't think they had an affiliate module, but after looking at the forums I see they do. This should do what I need it to.

osCommerce is a great open source program. We have customized it for many of our clients...

currently working on www.perfections.com - a custom jewelry site. It's worth it..
