We already are in business and already have a hosted website. This is a new line of products which is the first thing we have ever advertised and sold direct to the public. Everything else is B2B Indutrial stuff.

Looking at the Google Checkout stuff, it looks like they put a frame on my site which links to their site. Also, I was looking to combine it with some Adwords/Adsense advertising.

Basically, at this point, if I'm going to go with Google or build my own site, my cost is around 2-3% (depending on volume) and I would then devote another 2-3% to marketing. I am giving a 10-15% discount to my distributor in Mexico, so I even have a little more margin I could use, if necessary.

Basically, I'm trying to keep this Simple, Easy and Cheap. 8% seemed way too much.
