I know you guys aren't actually taking orders yet, so prices and such wouldn't be entirely established.... but....

What are your intentions with shipping? Do you plan to offer free shipping within the U.S. or at least a variety of shipping options? If not free, will shipping be flat rate or based on size or weight? I'm sure most of us would be willing to pay slightly more for items at your store than we would from "free shipping" sites due to the length of time it can take to receive shipments from them. However, there is a limit to how much extra I would pay to save a couple weeks in transit time. Also, some of us have had bad experiences with certain shipping companies *cough* UPS *cough* and tend to avoid ordering from sites that offer only that company as an option.

Just some curiosity, and food for thought. Given adequate variety, stock, service, and prices... I see a lot of potential in your store.

Edit:
I dunno if you planned to use the images you currently have in place of items, but I notice that a couple of them have copyright watermarks... might wanna get rid of those. ;)

There will be a base rate for each cube, and then a small additional amount per extra cube.
Here's a sample order:
3x3 base: $5 ($1 per extra cube)
4x4 base: $6 ($2 per extra cube)

2 3x3s: $1 + $1
1 4x4: $6 (the base price is used because it is the largest cube)
Shipping total: $8

These prices aren't accurate, they are just estimates.
As for companies, the default is Canada/US Postal Service. UPS is an option

I'm confused :confused: shouldn't that shipping be $12, $6 for the 2 3x3s and $6 for the 4x4?

No, what he's saying is that the "base" shipping is based on the largest cube. That would be $6 since the 4x4 is the largest. Then $2 extra for the two 3x3's.

Yes, that's correct. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

As for the images, these are only temporary until we get our cubes. Then we will be taking our own pictures.
