Prostores or X-Cart or ... ?

After really digging around I want to set up a dropship site that would have about 500 products.

I really wanted a hosted solution preferably wordpress or even drupal but with recent Credit Card company requirements I have decided to go another route.

I have narrowed it down to Prostores or X-Cart. Even though they cost they are what I consider reasonably priced solutions.

I was hoping that there may be a few seasoned warriors here that have used both or both and another and could steer me to the best solution and why.

      Can you import a CSV file or something like it into Prostores?

      Is it also as easy to create a nice storefront as they claim?

        yes you can...I suggest to sign up as they give a 30 day trial and that way you can see if it will work for you.....its truly a stpe by stpe ease to use....as everything almost is automated by steps.

          Ok thanks DNChamp looks like Prostores is clearly the winner at this point!

          Will likely give the trial a go.

          I have one other question which plan are you under. I noticed a bandwidth limit on the cheaper alternative of Prostores?!

          Have you found any hidden fees that don't stick out in the pricing?


          I am having a hard time with this decision because I really like the once off fee solution of x-cart but am more interested in which one works better.
