Whatever you do don't believe him it will take you atleast 3-4 days to fully understand how osCommerce works especially because of it's great application design (*ahum*) depending on your familiarity with PHP you can deduct or add days which basically means that choosing osCommerce six days before the end will screw you over stick to what you have. It's better to mess 6 days with something you know to get it to work then to mess with something you know barely and stress is a slowing down factor.

 

You can lean a great lesson out of this and that is to ALWAYS start with your high-risk, high-value components of your application you can identify these quite easily:

 

If I didn't implement this am I then screwed? If the answer is yes you should put it on top and start or experiment on this first and make sure it WORKS.
