Any good accounting software?...

I am currently using Quickbooks for another business but not using it for my ecommerce retail music book business. I'm tracking everything manually at this point but am trying to make a decision on accounting software and the inventory aspect is my main area of concern. It seems that Quickbooks' lack of costing methodolgies (uses average cost only rather than LIFO/FIFO options) is a serious drawback since our product costs do fluctuate from time to time. In my research of Peachtree, I see that it is more flexible and allows other cost methodologies. Can anyone else share your experience in regard to this issue tell me about any other accounting software that you might recommend for a small retail business? Thanks.

Excel works as well as anything; I have heard Microsoft Money is good too!

Hi Tracey

It was only a joke hence the at the end of it. I guess sometimes it's hard to convey humour through written text on a page!

I've found some great bargains on ebay in the past.

But I've also wasted a load of money on rubbish, the biggest problem is some people are very good at making a poor product sound fantastic, whilst others who have really good products aren't very good at selling. It's as much about the words as the product on ebay!

That's if smileys do actually help convey emotions online!
