  I want to buy a wordpress blog to show some of my tshirt designs on, and also add a paypal section so viewers can buy off the blog, is this possible?
  I am eventually getting a proper commerce site set up, but for the time being, I am running a blog to get a following while this are getting organized.

  I’m afraid e-commerce isn’t possible here at WordPress.com.

  If you require e-commerce/shopping cart functionality, you might be interested in a self-hosted (WordPress.org) installation. There are no restrictions on e-commerce if you setup a self-hosted WordPress.org blog instead of a WordPress.com blog, but there are some added responsibilities.

  Please see this link to learn about the differences:
