redSHOP
Not even finished. I spent 6 months trying to get this software in a workable condition, and almost did. It is for code kids not a out of the box and run system. I even signed up for the Pro edition (paid) and put a lot of work time into this. Im sure its great if you like coding if not this wont be for you, the standard templates are not even in a fit state. good luck!
Oh by the way be careful of their repeat billing, I didnt realise and got caught out, customer services are terrible Im afraid and thats also the staying point of a good component.

redSHOP has the easiest template system of any joomla ecommerce system - and why? Its just like joomlas template system and you can change anything without knowing a line of PHP - all you need to build your own templates from scratch is HTML and CSS.

So if you think that is "for codeboys" then sure - you do need to know a bit of HTML and CSS to really style a unique webshop - Or alternatively use a template from one of the big template clubs with redSHOP support (rocketheme, joomlabamboo, gavick etc.) if you are not capable of styling up your own views.

Google Maps Coordinates
Nicely integrated but on my J1.5 site when I activate the API it still asks 'This website needs a different API key' which is a shame as API keys arent used anymore. so half worked :)

My plugin is using Google Maps API v3 which do not require any key. But SOBI2 is using API v2 to display maps in entry view. Your error message about API KEY is not coming from my plugin but from SOBI2 component. My plugin is also checking SOBI2 configuration to inform user what he had done wrong and why maps are not showing but it is different message.
