I have currently working on a desktop application which I intend to make available for purchase. Are there any free or cost effective services/websites which I can use to sell my software and collect payment?

Here's one a colleague once used: http://www.shareit.com

I can't comment on the price/cost effectiveness.

You might like the topics "Which payment processor should I use?" near the bottom of http://discuss.joelonsoftware.com/default.asp?W1341

You should check out Paypal's new(ish) web interface. You just route your users through a set of payment collection pages after collecting the order information. It does not require that a user has a Paypal account. This is the one that I would use.

Another popular option is Digital River. You'll probably be interested in the Element5 option for small businesses.
