Shopify shopping cart seems simple and easy config, but never try it before, hope it have a good shopping flow. By the way, introduce one online electronics gadgets wholesaler and dropshipper http://www.favordeals.com, maybe it is a good place to sourcing interesting gadgets.

Note that the service is still in beta, BUT the software (Workspace) has been developed since 2001, so i think it is quite stable and there is already a LOT of features. And there is also a growth path if business expand (Standard Edition, Enterprise Edition, wide integration support, etc)

I don’t know how shopify works, so i can’t compare these two.

I’m beta testing Shopify and for me the big difference maker is the template engine. It’s super-powerful.

The admin interface and the low-fat approach are great, but I find the templating scheme quite lacking… I’ve been struggling for hour to display Collections and Types lists. I mean, you can create and manage Collections of products (categories) but you can’t dinamically list them. It is also quite cumbersome to do things like display a product’s tags on a product page. I hope they power-up their templating capabilities to fully leverage their superb admin interface on the public templates.

[...] Techcrunch’s original review can be found here. A more-established alternative to Shopify would be Ebay. But having never used that as a seller, I can’t really comment on how they compare. Perhaps someone could leave a comment letting me know the pro’s and con’s. [...]

[...] Shopify is het eerste echte product van JadedPixel, een Web2.0 softwarebouwer (Ruby on Rails, uiteraard) uit Ottawa in Canada. De hype is wat mij betreft een beetje overtrokken, zó revolutionair is Shopify nog niet. Meerdere mensen in de comments van Techcrunch’s bespreking van Shopify zijn het wat dát betreft met me eens. Wel biedt het enorm veel gemak, een belangrijk startpunt. [...]

How does it compare to eBay’s ProStores?

Shopify is an example of business principles playing 2nd fiddle to great design and technology. This might be what goes down as the lesson of “Web 2.0″ – looking like a million bucks is not the same is making a million bucks. Technorati.com is another prime example.

Specifically, I think Shopify is targeting the sort of boutique sellers (not ebay, not yahoo stores) who currently thrive precisely because they are operating outside of a system that provides simple and immediate comparison shopping and cross-seller searching. And make no mistake – that 3.75% is not their profit, that covers their cost. Their profit is in generating high traffic by providing these kind of cross-seller comparison tools that will please the end-user (who is looking for a specific snowboard at the lowest price) but drive away their clients (like a local ski shop using shopify to sell online who has neither time nor interest in competing with other merchants to attract Shopify customers).

I’m in the closed beta for Shopify. To be honest, I don’t know what the wait was for. The product does not have the features necessary to run a real store, and it even lacks basic features for content such as a WYSIWYG editor. Too basic in my eyes and not sure why it took them so long to construct. Personally I’d get a tried-and-tested off the shelf product or use something like Yahoo store. Dissapointed
