Website Redesign Update

[genoxy]

back on topic ...

I think it would be helpful to remove the misleading information on your current homepage and post an accurate message as to when customers will be able to access your store. Currently the homepage reads:

Closed for Today
We are closed due to our order capacity for the day being reached. We will re-open tomorrow.

People reading this assume that that means the site will be open at 8:00 A.M. PST as your previous message stated. It is one thing to tell your customers you are not open for business but it is quite another thing to post on your website that you will be open for business tomorrow and then post on this forum that you will not be open at all over the weekend and are unsure if the store will be open at all during the week.

I’m not trying to be harsh in any way but this misleading information is causing this customer at least and I am sure many others a source of frustration.

All the Best.

A Loyal Customer.

+1 completely agree with this, al least provide the right info on your site...

I, like many others, will waste countless hours at 8am every morning this week pressing F5 only to find out you opened at some random time during the week... How will this make everyone feel? Do you stop and consider this?

Dude, you seriously need a new web dev because someone is pulling your leg, a website DOES NOT take this long to get up and running or repair... It just doesn't... You NEED to get a second opinion

Check the site and the ENTER BIRTHDATE Page was up. Excited....I did and it went to the CLOSED splash page. I sensed Ben snickering somewhere.

That one got me too!

This was an obvious workaround and should not have been posted to the public. These keys are used for designers to access a closed website not customers. All orders placed using this work around will be refunded.

It seems that adding deleted to the end of the store URL in your browser makes the site more responsive.

Nice! ... Unfortunately you only get as far as the Checkout Screen where the 'Order Summary' is ghosted and you are unable to finalize your order. You had me all excited!

 

[genoxy]

Nah dude, try again... it works

Nah dude, try again... it works

It does, at least for now.

 

[Fred Garvin]

It worked for me....I have to wonder if it's really open or not though.

 

[Mr.Mann]

It worked for me, but I backed out of it seeing as how it is not sanctioned by Ben. It may turn out to be not as kosher as it seems. I will wait until he says go, seeing as how I am a little timid with my CC anyway. Ben, when you say you're open, I'll order.

gvc and bb all in the same week.i need to go play powerball

 

[Mr.Mann]

I get why people are buying, but it doesn't feel right to me. I would caution against it! Surely this is taking advantage of Ben and I don't think anyone here wants to do that. If you are okay with it, then do as you wish; just make sure you're okay with Ben possibly being mad about it.

Yeah, that's not cool. I mean, do what you want, but if I was trying to get my store up and had the site closed and people figured out how to get around it, I'd just refund those orders.

Keep in mind that the owner of the site didn't post that key, and he's probably going to be upset when he finds out that people are browsing his closed store. Ordering probably isn't a good idea.

Ben, not sure if it was open or not but now the shop is always open on my browser with http://avejuice.com/home.php URL

is.ave.open still says the site is closed but I went ahead and put an order through

If you cannot fulfill please let me know

I've also received emails and invoices confirming the orders have gone through

Thanks

[genoxy]

genoxy your so full of .... you know the stores not open and it's showing open because you used that key to get in like everyone else did

No need for that Dane...

I added the extra URL, the site was open then http://avejuice.com/home.php showed as opened and I managed to place an order

As I said, if Ben can't fulfil it because there was an issue then so be it.

Now its been pointed out I'm sure he will get it fixed.

It showed open for me and I placed a small order for a few things I wanted to try (I didn't use the link provided, just the regular URL). If it works, fine. If not, fine.

 

[Eatenback2life]

I just tried the normal online shop and it says closed.........

Sorry Candy, that's just not true. Opening the site with just avejuice.com without having used the key still goes to the closed splash screen

Ben, where are you?
