The product descriptions that show up on the MarketPress "products" page or the "store" page look an awful like the_excerpt in Wordpress -- basically all text formatting is ignored.
The only way to get the product descriptions to show their formatting (like paragraph line breaks, bolded text, etc.) is to manually input the raw HTML into the "Excerpt" area of the MarketPress "add new product" page.
Is there a way to display the product description formatting on the products/store pages so that it looks more like the_content ?

I have a custom excerpt function that does not strip formatting tags, however the product list page is not picking this up. it works fine on all other category/archive/blog type pages

That's by design. You can either manually add the excerpts, or modify the plugin.
The place to look is the mp_product_list() function in template-functions.php
