Ok, really, I’m a terribly geeky gal, ever since I got my first computer about 10 years ago.
I play with beta code and build websites using it before most people have heard of it. I experiment with the latest software. And the shopping cart I am currently using for Attached to Baby shop is based on ASP.NET 2.0 and SQL Server 2005. I was one of the first “big” shops to use it once it was released a year ago, and the first to apply their service packs.
This weekend Service Pack 3 was released and I planned it all and the update went smoothly, only 10 minutes down to apply the updates and do quick tests. The BVCommerce team was fast in helping me with any issues/bugs I found, and I really love this shopping cart. I hope to talk more about them in the future. I have used Storefront.NET and they put all their money into flashy advertising, but I felt none was invested in making their customers happy. BVC is the opposite, they could benefit from a prettier site, but wow, am I impressed with being able to chat with them and got problems fixed, usually within minutes or hours!
I feel they could have done a better job pre-testing, but I guess sometimes you just need a live shop to find those bugs. So the past day my search was useless, return RMA’s cannot be generated, my categories weren’t returning my products, but returning inactive ones I don’t want customers to see. But, within a day or just hours of posting these issues, they’ve all been resolved!
And though due to the site issues that made it hard to find things for a day, we still had four nice orders, all over $200! One was over $300, and one was over $400. Thank you, it saved my day. 
Now, back to going through the 200 emails that keep piling up for the $1000 Giveway Photo Contest. I’ll leave you with one of my current favorites, no make that 2 favorites:
Maybe I’m biased, but the first one is a FreeHand Mei Tai in the Attached to Baby exclusive Green Blossoms Silk, and the second is a Storchenwiege Leo Marine that really shows off the weave and the baby’s adorable blue eyes!
