The E-Junkie Shopping Cart: Testimonials & Preliminary Thoughs

The other day I introduced a new shopping cart to you called E-Junkie. Since then, I’ve spoken to a few people who use the site and wanted to share their thoughts. I did register to give the technology a try, as it really looked intresting to me . . . while I haven’t gotten anything set up yet, I am pleased with what I see. Navigating the back end is easy, and setting up a product is equally as easy. It seems like these guys have thought of almost everything. While the site began as a solution for processing payments for downloads, it has emerged as a viable solution for people selling tangable goods.

Each of the three people I spoke with who sell tangable goods were extremely pleased with the technology and customer service from the company, and none of them had any complaints themselves or had heard any from their customers. (click on thumbnail for larger image):

A Look at 3 Sites Using The E-Junkie Shopping Cart

Brendan Gill – Repeater Store

The Repeater Store has their own custom designed website, yet has implemented the E-Junkie ecommerce system into their site. They use small snippets of code for the View Cart and Add to Shopping Cart buttons, which are strategically placed on their site. The E-Junkie technology takes care of the rest. There is no need for a complicated system hosted on your site to do this.

Brendan tells me that he is extremely happy with E-Junkie, and would highly recommend it to anyone. In addition, he mentioned how responsive the company is to suggestions for improvement, which is a major plus! Finally, he talked about how good the customer service was, which is also a huge plus.

Craig – The Hamptons Honey Company

The Hamptons Honey Company website was apparently built completely on a platform offered by E-Junkie. I was told that Craig just uploaded his logo and images, edited the sidebar, footer, and header, added product descriptions, and his site was up and running.

According to Craig, setting up his store was “a joke!” He was enthusiastic about how easy it was to do, and told me that the support that E-Junkie offers is nothing but excellent. His site has been around for close to 8 months now, and he has had no issues or problems whatsoever. His only issue was in the reporting system, which he said needed some improvement, however he said that this should not disuade anyone from using the company.

Mike Cosman – Sweet ‘n Heat

Mike over at Sweet ‘n Heat has only been around for a few months now, but he is happy with E-Junkie overall. For now, he is only selling one product on his site, but this stands as a testament to the adaptability of the technology. All that his designers needed to do was place 2 buttons on a page that had his product’s description, and the shop was up and running. He actually told me that his designers have also used the cart and are also quite happy with it. He plans on adding new products soon, and I’m sure it will be a snap!

Closing Thoughts

I just wanted to end by saying that so far, this looks to be very promising to me. The few people I’ve told about the site have also said that it looks very promising. With nothing but positive reviews so far, I’m thinking that I might give it a shot for real. I’ve got a call in to Robin who is one of the company’s founders to discuss things a bit more, and will hopefully share anything new with you. He did respond very quickly to my comments/thoughts on the previous post about the company, and seems to be very much interested in getting the word out about his company. BTW – I did ask if he’d be interested in an interview . . . I hope he agrees so I can share more with you all.
