Couple of things that are pretty easy to implement if you design with

1)Tell them who you (the company and & site developer) are (names of
real people, if possible) and what you are about -- many customers like
know something about who they do business with.
2) Give them an uncondi

Well, obviously I'm a bit biased. ;-) But you'll find the coding in CFWebstore much much easier to extend than AbleCommerce. It was written in Fusebox for that very reason, to

Thats definitely part of it. Its also the fact that it is using the
