While we're on the subject of eCartDeluxe's customizable nature, what about allowing your customers to configure their computer systems before they purchase them?
 Similar to the way Apple and Dell do in their web stores, eCartDeluxe lets you create product 'bundles' from your local inventory and allows the customer to select how much RAM is installed, or how big the hard drives should be, or what software is loaded on the system. Each of your custom systems can be loaded up with 9 different configuration categories, and those categories are created by you! The configurable options can be anything; from the practical, such as the type and size of RAM modules to install, to the silly, such as the color and size of a mouse pad that users receive with their orders. The only limit is your imagination!
The option's price markups are clearly listed on the main product page, and the system's price increases or decreases on the fly to reflect the new choices. If a system's base price is $2000, and the customer selects a 512 MB RAM upgrade (which carries a $100 price increase), the price on the page immediately becomes $2100. Also, if a product option increases the weight of a system, the change in weight is included when the shipping charges are calculated.
Once you receive the order in the backend administration application, you're presented with an itemized component list on the invoice which you pull from your local inventory and install. Then, once the system is shipped from your store, you can enter the tracking numbers in the backend administration application so your customers can check on the shipping status of their order!
