B) Use a payment gateway
C) Use good 'ol paypal because there is an API already built

There is the possibility that this site could partner with an existing (traditional) store that already accepts credit cards. Does this matter?

Any help is greatly appreciated.
I would Use Paypal to in conjunction with something like OSCommerce to start off with as most host's provide it in the form of Fantastico scripts and have it for free in their deals.
