    Are you saying that you can only ship your tools to a certain location? As for value. Yes of course its valuable. You will get much more exposure as opposed to people walking into your shop. People can actually see what you have and also attract people nationwide ( if you can ship nationwide ). I did this for my cell phone store and my traffic increased by at least 30%. You wont regret it. Dont get left behind, give us more details

    If you have little experience, try yahoo stores, fairly simple to use and set up.

    They even have solutions like e-junkie that can run off of a blog, ebay myspace or craigslist. If you want to test the waters before making a larger investment and time. For payment you can use something like google check out or paypal. If you have alot of transactions it's a better value to pay for something like yahoo store since the transaction fees will be less. Maybe give us more detail of what your goal is someone can better assist but there are many options to choose.

    https://www.cartsquare.net is pretty good and you would be able to set your available shipping locations. Can try it out free before buying as well.

    Another one to look into would be cubecart and this would take care of your web design for the most part as well.
