Technologies Used: Teresa continued, “We use ShopSite as the shopping cart for our website. Custom templates were created for us by Merchant Corner. The templates include support for multiple photographs on our product detail pages as well as zooming capabilities. Custom shopping cart and checkout pages were also developed to provide continuity and ease of checkout.”

Advice / Tips: “Selling high dollar, one of a kind items of historical significance is as much about image and trust building as it is about product selection and presentation. Well planned site navigation and ease of use are critical, but what’s most important is to make sure your customers feel confident that what they read and what they see online will be precisely what they get when the product arrives in their hands.”
