Shopping cart is coming along....

Ok feedback is now very welcome :-)

Please go thru the cart and let me know what you think on all but navigation, colors and layout. Navigation colors and layout will be improved over the next few weeks. My designer is down right now due the the florida hurricane, but should be back up soon.

I am looking for feedback on products first of all. Anything in the wrong place? Any products that have the wrong picture? Any products have a broken pic link (box with red x)? I know some products have missing pics and the Foundry ones are a bit of a mess. Working on that.

Anyone know Reaper products well enough to use excel to create the 'sort reaper by product type' pages? A volunteer to populate those pages plus the Warlord by Faction pages would be welcome and rewarded with product. I can send you an excel file with names and sku numbers, you just add the column putting them in the right pages. Email me.

No test orders yet, but we will get there soon.

Inventory on Privateer Press products contiue to be a problem, despite our rather aggressive buying. Each order goes out containing all we have instock and we will reship as soon as more product comes in. When? Frankly I dont know. I know Privateer is working like crazy to produce the stuff, I know I have orders and contacts at 7 different US warehouses ready to jump on stuff as soon as it arrives. So the answer is 'as soon as possible'. Which is simultaneously a good answer and a bad answer - I know.

The cart is pretty up to date as to what is in stock, so order freely. It is just the things that are missing drive me crazy. Sigh.

I am very excited about how the new cart is working and the things I can do with it. A lot of things you wont see but will speed up my back office time considerably and make a better finished product. This way I will actually be able to go home at a decent hour, and my sweetie will remain happy with me.

One of the things we are able to do now is load products in via excel/access. Definite learning curve for me as I got to know the programs, and access is still foreign to me. I am rocking excel tho and I am able to go to a catalog like Alliance Distributors, download broad sections of it, plug in discount pricing and assign it to pages. Not much work, work that I actually like to do and it is up on the site. No pics tho, pics take a bit of time. but they are up. Problem however -- these sections contain products I will not usually stock. I dont mind that, but I want it to be clear to the customer there will be a wait involved, and some things might not ship.

How do I do that? I thought of putting it all into a 'Vik's Basement' category, with a clear message that these are basement products, not in stock, could take a few days etc... Problem here is there might be stigma associated with being in a separate section, or people will miss it if they cant see it in that section.
I could put it in the regular sections, but then people might miss the stock/wait warnings. What to do? Feedback helpful. Look at IWM, Warzone and Chronopia to see examples of what the sections will look like - lists with no pics. These are all great games, we just cant afford to stock it all right away.

Anyway, let me know what you think on this stuff, here or by email.
thanks!
