    hi.. i want users to buy document files.. mp3s etc in such a way that they can also upload their own stuff and get paid if someone download their item (while i cut some fee).. user can buy credits via paypal to be able to download stuff..

    which cms would be the best to handle things like that?

    i am sane enough to appreciate replies with green ;)

    I don't think that any CMS will do this out of the box. You will probably need to pick one and have it modded for use. If I understand, you want to offer files for sale but also to offer a portal for other sellers where you charge a "transaction fee" or commission.

    My suggestion would be to try and get this handcoded for you by an experienced programmer, and use the Paypal IPN

    If you want to jump in and try to work it out, I suggest you look at Drupal and the ecommerce modules, particularly http://drupal.org/project/ecommerce. You can also look through all the other ecommerce modules and see if there are some you can play with to get the features you want: http://drupal.org/project/Modules/category/104
