Sorry, i will stay at my opinion.
Divide the two things.
Use Links as a database for your products (you must do some logical things to have fields and values for all products you would like to serve)
Then you need another tool that just do one thing:
Take the data via form and save it to a database, let user delete, modify and BUY.
I use a simple script from elitehost.com; this has the additional advantage to be an affiliate-programm, too.
(249$) pure perl and easy to change.
Unfortunately this cart runs in a closed area, so i cant show it to you.
I think its to much thing too change links to do the shopping too; you need tables for the seller, tables for the buyers and a lot of stuff more; i will send my links.html to show what i mean and how easy it is:
