Hey Amber. Just stumbled upon your site and I really like it. I am working my way all the way from your last to first posts (there goes my productivity today!!:)…
So here is my question. Do you Personally use a cart package (Magento, Shopify, etc..) or do you code a cart then add a gateway (Corecommerce)? I have never done online sales before, but have a client that wants one so i am looking at best options. If you have used both, which do you prefer?
Thanks a lot.
