[thelist] Looking for a simple CF-based catalog/shopping cart

I'm looking for recommendations/warnings regarding simple cold fusion based 
catalog/shopping carts.  I need something that I can easily deploy for 
multiple clients, has relatively low pricing structure (say <150 per client 
or 600 per server), and preferably will be able to be embedded within an 
existing design.

I don't need anything fancy (upsells and cross sells, variable discounting 
schemes for different user classes, etc) and I don't actually need it to 
support online payment gateways.  Just something to allow the client to 
create a catalog and allow visitors to add items to a basket and then 
figure out a grand total order.

We have AbleCommerce, but I find that to be a bit of overkill for small 
needs.

I've also briefly looked at http://www.cf-ezcart.com/ and 
http://www.quickestore.com/

I liked the fact that ezcart was custom tag based, which would seem to 
indicate that I could easily embed it within a design.

Anyone have any experiences with either of these solutions or have 
recommendations on any others?

TIA,
Judah
