Hi everyone,
This is my first post in groups, so hope you are all doing well..
I need to set up a website with paid membership where after payment users will be able to edit their profile fields provided by Content Profile and use the Blog in their profiles. As far as I found out, to do this I have to create a role with appropriate permissions and upon payment that role should be given.
I want to use D6, so that I can benefit from extended features of it.
So far I couldn't make eCommerce beta3 and Content Profile work together for this on D6.
Considering D5 there are plenty of alternatives. But I don't want to use it unless I have no alternatives in D6.
What do you offer? Can you point me to documentation explaining these, I couldn't really find something worthy so far..
Regards,
Duru.

Basically this is done with the modules ec_role and ec_recuring, but with the restructure of e-Commerce in Drupal 6 v4 these modules will not be available as a part of the core system. However these should be available as external modules that can be downloaded and configured.
I do not know if I will be updating these modules and getting them working 100% on Drupal 6.x but I am happy for someone else to take these modules and create there own projects.
ATM my ultimate goal is to get concentrate on getting the core of e-Commerce working and working very well.
Also from your email AFAIK there are no turkish payment gateways and all it takes is for someone to create the gateways and submit them as external projects.
There is only going to be PayPal included in core as it is available for use in most countries, and is a good start for people who are new to ecommerce and selling online, but they can then later step up to a better one later.

What about the LM_Paypal module?
If you don’t need a full-fledged shopping cart and just want to accept PayPal donations, subscriptions (including Role by Subscription), and Paid Adverts, this may be just what the Dr. ordered.
The Role by Subscription feature allows you to charge a limited duration (e.g. annual), optionally recurring and automatically re-billed fee, and assign a Role (for enhanced permissions on a site) automatically when the PayPal “Completed/Cleared” IPN is received from PayPal.
So, you have the default Roles for, of course, anonymous and authenticated users, and then create a custom Role for Subscribers (in addition to other custom Roles such as Moderators and Admins). You give authenticated users access that anonymous users lack in return for signing up and providing basic contact info. You give paid Subscribers still more access that non-Subscriber authenticated users lack.
You tell LM_PayPal to grant this Subscriber Role to subscribers upon PayPal IPN received, and revoke it if they cancel a recurring billing. It all happens automatically from there.
Drupal 6 and Ubercart for Multi-Level Memberships and features
Ah, so sorry to have read the thread to find out durum gave up on the project!
I looked forward to reading how you ended up implementing this.
Very much like durum, I am trying to implement a site with multi-level fee-based memberships and content access.
In addition, some content should be purchasable.
In light of the thread so far, snicers' solution seems most suitable, using UberCart.
I welcome any thoughts or suggestions.
What about auctioning selected content items?
Thank you everyone for the precious contributions to the discussion so far.
Cheers,
