Devshed has a very promising tutorial series going that is designed to help users build a PHP based shopping cart system "step by step." Very cool stuff, and probably a better, more robust and more scalable solution with a far better price than just about any commercial counterpart (open source, open code for flexibility and scalability and lets see, cost == 0, go PHP!)
The articles are in three parts, part 1 is out and available via the link. Checkit.
