Thread: Shop Needed

I am looking for a shop to put up on my sites, mainly to sell tshirts, caps and would be nice to have a lot more things there as well.

I tried piki which I love as you can go in and design your own tshirts and also have your designs up onsite. CafePress I am not happy with due to having to wait for a long time to get any payments.

So this is what I am looking for if anyone knows where I can get one...

No downloading eg ecommerce

Able to put up my own designs or members go in and design there own, for tshirts etc

More than just tshirts, has a wide variety of products

Payment to me is by paypal and not a cheque.

Also members can get what they want in days and not weeks.

I also just want to be able to put the address onsite and not worry about it. Some I have found I have to go in and copy and paste, I just want an address for my sites shop.

There are a lot of these shops online but what I want to know is if anyones used them before and which ones do they think is the best.

try viart shop cart.. PHP Shopping Cart Software :: Ecommerce Solution :: ViArt Shop

i have used them for 1 yr.. they rock

I dont want anything that I have to download, most shops just give you an address that you put up on your site and there is your shop that you can go into and add designs too.

Plus I dont need hosting either, but thank you

I know the exact thing you are wanting but I can't remember the damn url for the site. As soon as I remember I will post it for you

You're looking for a cafepress.com type of deal?

I am not sure they have everything you said, but worth looking into.

I am thinking about selling handmade jewelry, made by yours truly :P so I'll need something similar as well.

Would Etsy.com do it?

They have handmade things on there.

Yes, I believe so, I've been there before and got the idea from there actually but couldn't recall the site. Thanks Halobal... I mean bitt...

Can we see some of your jewellry C?

When I actually start making some! :P

I used to make stuff for myself many years ago, it's something I am thinking about getting back into as I enjoyed it and can probably earn a bit off of.

Especially since I am planning to leave my BF and get out on my own.

I told him the other day, actually was arguing with him about it.

Should I start making break-up jewelry? Is that where you're going?

Maybe you could make up jewellery that leaves a mark? Pretty stretchy ones that you can pull and its like a rubber band?? lol just kidding, I have a warped sense of humour :9

Thank you, but with this one you need to pay a fee monthly and I dont want to do that.

Nope, not going anywhere in particular. Can't even imagine what breakup jewelry would look like, broken heart stuff, or daggers through heart stuff more like?

Cafepress, as mentioned above, is probably the most familiar and trusted of these types of sites. I have used it in the past with no problem. They have a fairly quick turnaround time when you order custom products.

Whatever you do, don't use zazzle. :sroll: I have a shirt that I ordered from there and it's crap. First I ordered it 2 sizes bigger than what I usually wear, and it was still to small... And the fabric is way too thin. Not only is it almost see-thru, but I'm sure it would rip a big hole in it if it ever got snagged on something.

I am using piki, they are fast and great work, I used them before at one of my sites, but I did want an aussie company lol but back to piki

Hmmm, I dont think i've ever seen any service like this that doesn't take a huge chunk of your profit away :undecided:

Well,

They all do take a huge chunk off your profit, but they do handle all of the sale, you dont have to worry about the products, the shipping, customer service or any of that stuff. Obviously they are gonna take a big chunk!!!
