Shopify vs. my own website?

[Bellini]

Hey everyone,

I am getting ready to start building my website in order to sell my products when I get them in (I was planning to build it at 1&1 which is where I have my domain.) I have built websites before on 1&1 and other sites.

But then I remembered people talking about Shopify. I went to their website but I still don't understand what the difference is between them and having your own website with a shopping cart?

Would appreciate any input from those who are familiar with Shopify or are using it currently.


P.S. I did search the threads already and read several but did not see the answers I was looking for.
