New Shopping Cart for halcyonyarn.com
Hi from Amos, tech-nerd at Halcyon Yarn. I have made some changes to halcyonyarn.com, and hope that you like them! One dramatic recent change is that we have changed the way you checkout by developing new shopping cart software. I would LOVE some feedback as you check out these new features:
1. You can now see volume-discounts in the cart! Did you know that if you buy 5 or more books, you get a discount? That most yarns (and fibers) have three prices, and the more you buy the cheaper it is? Well with our old cart it was not possible to show these discounts at check-out, and now we can!
2. You can now add gift certificate codes, and discount codes to your order and see the correct total. Keep an eye out as we add discount codes to up-coming newsletters!
3. Web 2.0 goodness – you can add items without a page reload, the cart can update qty totals without a page reload, the cart keeps track of the page where you added an item so you can get back to it later and more!
4. Provides a platform for future improvements! Most importantly it is flexible, so we hope to add more features incrementally.
Please give it a try, and feed back is WELCOMED! Please also do send me an email at mis@halcyonyarn.com and let me know what you love (and more importantly don’t love) about the new cart. There may be the odd bug out there, and I can only fix them if I hear back… Suggestions for new features are welcome too – I’m looking forward to an exciting year of developments at halcyonyarn.com, and I want to focus on what is important to all of you! Thanks much! Amos.
