Can you give a hint as to what you're looking for?

http://www.adirondackcraft.com is Zope on Firebird using the Cybercash 
Zope product for back-end credit-card processing.  

Works well enough.

The only problem I had was some browsers would drop cookies when 
switching from http to https, so for checkout, I have to explicitely pass 
another token in the URL in case the cookie is lost.

We always used cookies, and never tried URL munging. Haven't received 
any complaints about it.

This site was made .. 3 years ago I think, it's quite old relatively speaking. 
I'd definately build it different now.
