Needing Drop-in eCommerce Gadget
Posted: Wed Aug 20, 2008 9:35 pm
On a low bid contract I picked up on the side of an existing contract I have, I'm needing a drop-in eCommerce gadget or script so that the guy can provide his catalog of documents he's written. The gadget needs to let one browse everything from my page, not hop off somewhere to some other page on some other site. Once the selection is made and someone wants to use it, the thing needs to give us a shopping card and ordering mechanism. I want to almost spend zero effort on this -- just drop in the HTML code, let him enroll in the service and pay for it, let him upload his catalog information, and he's off and running. I really don't want to integrate a super fancy shopping cart system -- just something simple. I also don't want to write it myself because time is critical here.
In short, have you heard of a service out there that provides shopping gadgets for a low cost where you can build your own store of your own goods and let people order them? I noticed that Amazon sort of has this feature, but they don't permit some kinds of items.
My client also doesn't have a lot of cash to enroll for this service -- perhaps only $400 per year + 2-4% transaction fees.
