The old store had some coding dead-ends in it and needed to be start fresh in order to move in the directions people have been wanting.. i.e. templating across all interfaces.
The beta is largely final apart from the front end templates, which are still being worked on. Any products added in the beta will continue to be there as it is updated. The front end will however change... and will continue to change even after release as it improves.
It also has not been widely tested although it does run a handful of websites at the moment. There may/will be unforeseen issues once people around here start using it.
The new store will have a switch to disable prices and purchasing. It's in there now, but is not complete.
The main point here is... don't sell anything to customers that you haven't seen and confirmed for yourself.
