Any .NET ecommerce packages using MVC and Linq?

I'm trying hard not to go off and roll my own shopping cart, but after perusing the available .NET ecom packages, it's all ASP.NET webforms. In addition, if i see another handrolled DB layer or some manual invocation of Activator.CreateInstance() for extensibility, i'm going to break out in hives.

So what I'm looking for is a shopping cart written in C# using ASP.NET MVC, FubuMVC or Monorail using some Linq capable ORM, preferably NHibernate. I would prefer it to be open source, but if the code base is well done and source license is available, I'm not opposed to a commercial solution.

I know about Rob Conery's webcast series on this topic, but if i'm not rolling my own, i'd like something a little closer to prime time.

Is there such a beast, or is rolling my own the best option?

If you're looking for an open source ecommerce app that uses MVC then check out http://www.nopcommerce.com - they've just released version 2.0 which is done in MVC 3.
