We have a store where we currently sell digital downloads. In the future, we plan to offer t-shirts, hats etc. that will be produced by a 3rd party like Cafe Press, or the like. The best scenario is for a customer to be able to use the same cart/transaction for both the digital download (e-junkie) and the t-shirt (t-shirt maker). Does e-junkie play nice with 3rd parties like t-shirt makers? How does this work? Thanks!

Your product sourcing does not affect E-junkie cart. Are you asking that whether E-junkie cart will work in combination with cafepress cart?

Thanks for getting back to me. Let me try to rephrase it...
I want the customer to use the e-junkie cart for buying items from multiple suppliers. Maybe e-junkie fulfills downloads, Cafe Press fulfills shirts and another company for DVDs. In this case, e-junkie handles the transaction, but sends the order to the 3rd party(s).
I think this holds the answer: http://www.e-junkie.com/ej/help.integration.php
But, I'm not super technical, so I'm looking for verification that the above is the answer.
As a follow up... Are most web-based vendors (Cafe Press, DVDBaby, etc.) set up to receive and process the variables and/or the "Payment Variable Information URL"?
Thanks!

That is the correct solution. You will use that to send data to a script on your server and that will communicate with whoever is fulfilling the order in a format they want. Like SwiftCD has an XML Post interface.

You'll have to check with each of them individually. CafePress did launch some sort of API recently.
