I already know it won't work with CVS now... What I want to know is. Is the type mod I am talking about even possible or should I give up on it.

I think its alright to ask money as long as he supports the mod to all the customers and upgrades it when a new x-cart version comes out (if needed)! Other than that $49.50 is a bit to high!

If you can't figure out yourself and build the mod, and someone else has to spend the time to do so, why then shouldn't they charge for it. X-Cart Devlopment wouldn't do it for free.... we all know that is true.

Besides, with all the freebie mods and advice FunkyDunk has given to the members of this forum, what's $49.50 for a mod you really need. I'm sure you have profited 10 times that, from his postings here if you have done any serious mods to your cart and use this forum to keep on track and save time.

$49.50 for fuctionality that notifies your clients when a product is back in stock. That translates into a higher sales conversion and probaly greater customer retention. Don't be so short-sighted. Pennywise, pound foolish!

Never understimate the predictability of stupidity!

My two cents,

Glen

Let me put it simply....

I paid for it. Why? Because I wanted it!

Exactly DogByteMan,


We can't get everything for free. It pays to reciprocate. I haven't bought this MOD yet, but I will very soon. My clients are going to love this one.

Once our advanced Bridal/Gift Registry MOD is done and the addition of this Back In Stock Notification and Marketing Manager, you talking about a complete solution that costs under $400.00 (for me of course, clients will pay more) that can compete with the big boys on their turf. That leaves alot of money for marketing and so forth.

FunyDunk, Groovico and Boomer, keep em' coming!

Regards,

Glen

Just to let you know that this mod has been improved and the new code has been sent to all existing purchasers for free.

It will now work even if the customer is not logged in by displaying an email box (with the usual email checking on it) and will add the customer to the notify list when they enter their email address.

If they are logged in them one click and they are added.

When 3.5.0 is released there will be a further improvement to allow admin to see which products have got customers waiting on stock to enable stock to be got quickly to satify potential sales demand.
