Rev cgi store question

[Richard Miller]

I've had difficulty finding a flexible, low-cost, easy-to-setup web  
store. If someone can suggest one, I'd appreciate it. The three  
pieces I need are:

1) process orders for overseas customers
2) offer multiple shipping options
3) allow options to be set for specific products (like color selection)

I only need to handle a half-dozen products.

Thanks.
