Over the past few years I have installed - and used - several different shopping carts. If you are on a limited budget, Zen Cart is probably one of the best carts around!

I do recommend getting your hosting account with a company that understands Zen Carts. Host Gator is one such host. I have a demo site hosted with them at the moment, and have not had one problem.

Zen Cart utilizes an open source code, and the code can NOT be sold (be cautious if you ever run across a seller that offers to sell you Zen Cart). But we do offer a package price for installation and customization.

OK, so per eBays new and improved rules you must include a return policy and all outside links and personal email addresses must be removed.

Fine. I can live with that.

I have never relied on eBay for clients anyways.

But I am unable to do either! eBay wants to charge me .05 for a revised listing. I think not.

And the kicker is that the Return Policy field WILL NOT SHOW! I am not going to revise twice - once to remove my email address and once to add the return policy once they get their shit together and fix their script. At that point - I would be charged .10 to revise a listing!

I have tried starting a new listing, I downloaded TurboLister. Nada. No return policy field. And even if TurboLister showed me a return policy field, I would then have to kill everything in my store and relist. Again, a nickel charge.

Sorry eBay. Pull my listings. But I will not pay you any more than what I have to.

And yes, I have spoke with Stores Support. I was on the phone with them for almost 2 hours last week. The rep was able to reproduce the errors and admits that it is on their end. Of course we had to go through the "empty your cache" crap first.

Her solution? Revise without the return policy and then let her know the item numbers that I get charged for, and they will credit my account! I about peed my pants laughing at that one.

eBay credit my account? What a joke.

We have had to cleanup our server and some of the files that we host for our premade templates have moved. If you have purchased a premade template from us in the past, and are still using it but the images no longer work, please let us know.

We will send you an updated template with the correct image links.

We do apologize about the inconvenience, but our server was getting full and sometimes a complete reorganization and cleanup is the only way to get things back on track.

Also there was a few files that we had been hosting for clients. We will no longer be hosting client files/images. All IMAGES will be moved to our Photobucket account and any HTML files will be removed from our server.

We will save a copy of your files and if you need us to send them to you so you can upload them to YOUR host, please let us know.

Thanks!
