Hi Pete,
 
I just wanted to Thank You profusely for the lightning fast shipment of espresso over the weekend!!  It is nice to find a small company who provides the fast, friendly customer service that you have shown and continue to show.  It does not go un-noticed!
 
Have a great week!

Renee

Pete,

Good Morning Pete,
 
I just (minutes ago) placed an order for 25 lbs of Raging Bull Espresso.  Could you please ship this order asap?  I meant to order it Sunday and get onto your Monday roasting schedule, but it slipped my mind.  Compliments on your coffee yet again.  We’ve heard it rumored that we have the best coffee in town! (but Shhhhh I don’t think the other 2 coffee houses would like that much!)
 
Thanks Pete!

I will put some screen shots of the new checkout page here, along with an explanation.

First off, I want to apoligize for the State missing from a lot of the address book entries.   Rest assured, as far as I know, this was the only info that was lost during this upgrade process.

 If during checkout you do not see your State listed in your address, please edit the address by using the buttons.  A small window will open to edit your address book.  It is very easy.  Enter the coupon code “statemissing” and get $1 off any 1 order.  If you have a few address’s that need changing let us know.

Now let’s just start from the top and work our way down.  The next screen shot is if you go to checkout without signing in.

Here is a screen shot if you are signed in and click on checkout.  Notice the shipping price is in the shopping cart at the top of the page.  You can also edit quantities or delete items from your cart here.

Next we have the Payment info box and the total as well as the continue button.  Just enter payment info, confirm the billing address for the card being used is shown in the billing address, and click continue to complete the order.  All on the same page!

I have the retail store newly updated and running with the new One Page Checkout!

The store runs faster too!  Checkout on one page, edit quantities in cart, delete items from cart, enter coupon codes or Gift Vouchers, create account or log in, confirm shipping address, enter payment info, enter comments and then just 1 click to confirm the order.

I have been getting a test version of our estore catalog updated to run smoother and have one page check out, like I have done to our Wholesale store.  I am almost ready to install the updated version, I just need to get all the files backed up in case something goes wrong.

I may wait until Early Thursday morning to do the switch, since I have coffee to roast today!  Besaides I have learned to not hurry while doing web site work, too many things to double check!  If I get done roasting before noon I may do the move today, but not too likely.
