Into our New Storefront on Shopify

Hello Everyone, just over 1 week since we moved our online store to Shopify platform and from comments received, customers are appreciating and taking advantage of new store features.  From additional free videos & downloads to better see how the Metalcraft Tools and stampings can benefit you, more payment options offered including the pay in 4 equal payments, customer accounts allowing for faster checkout and ability to see past orders, better search functionality, and scan QR code to get tracking updates on your order. 

Above are just some of the new features BUT these next 2 (well at least 1 is) a game changer!  Did you notice the Add to Cart button on the product pages?  If not, take a look - it shakes periodically.  OK, that one isn't changing or helping the function of the store but it's fun and who wants a boring Add to Cart button.  Humor aside, the feature I hope many take advantage of is the shipping box located on the Shopping Cart page.  Normally shipping cost is only seen on the Checkout page and if one wants to increase or decrease quantity then you have to go from Checkout page back to Shopping Cart page and then back to Checkout page to see shipping.  TOO much back and forth so we made it much easier by having a shipping calculator box installed on Shopping cart page.  Now one can easily change quantities and quickly see if that impacts the shipping cost. For example in USA, shipping $1 to $150 worth of stampings costs the same OR with shipping steel, 10 lbs. to 50 lbs. costs the same to ship as we use UPS flat rate boxes when shipping steel. 

We appreciate your comments so please keep them coming.
