Urgh...

More frustrations with the new shopping cart - doesn't look like a viable option after all, darn it. Oh well - the money I've saved on the orders I have gotten through there made it worth setting up. Just can't use it in conjunction with EMG or PA without a GREAT deal of expense. *sulk*

Some of you folks use Mals eCommerce: Like it? Hate it? Pickles?

My FIRST shipment of transfer paper came in today. I suppose I should return to sender. I'm a teensy bit tempted just to keep the damn thing - doesn't it sort of karmically balance all the crap I've been on the receiving end of? The company's already written it off as lost... Oh, I'm not kidding myself, I'll return it.

That's the honest thing to do. You know you'd be sooo guilty that you couldn't bring yourself to use it if you kept it! ;)

Love Mals-e...in fact I'm in love with Mal. ;)

See, sometimes I think we have similar ethics, and other times, not so much. If it's been written off as lost, I'd keep the paper without blinking.

I suppose that's the difference between the mindset of a business owner, and someone who just works retail (and used to fish stripped books out of the Barnes and Noble dumpster)

Yep, I give my vote for Mals too. It's great, does just about everything I could want it to do, and I also know it's integratable with Paypals premium service thingy.
OH and if you do use Mals, I TOTALLY suggest also buying mals M-Orders program for sorting your orders, it's awesome. Still a little buggy, but indispensable.
It downloads all your orders, sorts them, you can send emails straight from it (for order recieved, order shipped, etc announcements), and I even use it to print invoices. I also know you can set it up to print your shipping labels and all but I haven't worked that out yet.
It's great anyway :p

It always pays to play straight, then you can never be caught doing wrong. It wouldn't hurt though to email 'em before you post the stuff, if they would like half decent public relations they may decide to gift it to you for your trouble. Then you get to be good AND have an advantage, if not you are still a decent person and they are incompetant ratbags.
