For the past 9 years the systems I set up for my e-commerce sites, using very little cash, have done me proud. However, they were constructed on a shoestring, and business has grown so that it is time to become more professional to the benefit of you, the customer.

With this in mind , I have switched to a very clever shopping cart system called Interspire. You can shop as a "guest" without registering, however if you register your name and address, you will be able to:

• set up a wish list for items you do not want to buy immediately
• view items you have previously purchased, and repurchase them from within the customer account area
• check out from a single page

I am very excited by all this, and it is only possible due to the loyalty, support and encouragement that I receive from so many of you. Thank you so much, and I hope you like the changes!
