I would go the Magento route.

Contact me if you have any questions.

OpenCart is easy to use and stable. I have used it for a couple sites - collectible plates and a vintage book store, but I don't think it can handle 14,000 items, but it might as you can make product categories. The problem with OpenCart is it has limited CMS. You can create pages, but content management is not nearly as good as Joomla or WordPress.

If you have the time, I would try Magento. I have played around with it, and it is an enterprise-grade e-commerce system (think Amazon-level), but it is complicated and there is a learning curve.

    Hi All,
    I've been working with VirtueMart on a project and running into some
    limitations. I was wondering if anybody has experience with any of the
    alternative carts such as the OpenCart ports like JHShop or
    JooCart? redShop
    looks interesting too but expensive.
    This project has 14,000 items, multiple inventory locations and ships
    internationally and I obviously need a robust cart to make this fly.
    Any comments or suggestions or experiences you've had with the
    various carts
    would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!
