Project_Description

I would like a shopping cart developed that would allow me to do the following:

Basically, I would like a store that allows people to purchase LEGO products…

• A shopping cart that allows the purchase of products online and generates a receipt that is emailed to customer with the items and the total.

• No integration of online credit card authorisation – all order details including credit card info will be sent to an email address. Payment can be made by credit card, cheque/money order and direct deposit.

• When an item is added to the basket, it will have two fields that must be remembered 1) The price and item description 2) The weight, so that shipping can be calculated from this.

• Shipping Calculation is found by looking up a price table for each country. The table is located at http://www.ozbricks.com/postagetable.pdf . This is how it works.

Case 1.- A customer from Australia adds two items from the store at an end cost of $25 and an end weight of 2kgs. The total cost for postage as can be seen from the chart is $5 Local Zone delivery as this is set as flat rate service.

Case 2.- A customer from New Caledonia adds two items from the store at an end cost of $25 and an end weight of 2kgs. The total cost for postage as can be seen from the chart is the Zone 2 pricing at the 2kg rate, and there are three options for the customer 1) EMS = $55 or 2) Air = $34 or 3) Economy = $26.50

Case 3.- A customer from New Caledonia adds two items from the store at an end cost of $25 but the weight is 10kgs. The total cost for postage as can be seen from the chart is the Zone 2 pricing at the 2kg rate + 8 extra kgs which are charged at the 2kg rate + a certain amount for every 500 grams that the parcel is over 2kg. And so, this is now the cost to the customer: 1) EMS = $151 2) Air = $98 3) Economy = $74.50

• Must have a product search for customers. • On the backend, I must be able to be able to put in a percentage off figure for each product. For example, I will want to discount an item to 20% off so I just write in 20% in a field. • Must have a field that asks if a product is in the bargain basement. If it is checked, then this product is also listed in the bargain basement section. • Must have a field that has an availability status page where I enter the date the product is available. If it is after that date, then the customer sees “Available” in the description. If it is not yet that date, then the customer sees “Preorder” in the description. Also, if the item is listed as “preorder”, then it should be on the pre-orders section of the site. • Must have a field for new releases. If I tick the field then the item is automatically added to the new release part of the web site. • The front page should show random products each time the page loads… New releases should be randomly chosen from the new releases page, Top Picks should be the product pages with the most hits, and essential lego can be manually added. • There should be a instant item field so that if for example we sell an item on ebay, the customer can put in the ebay number and the item is added to their cart. Of course we will manually have to enter the product details for each item we sell, and the product code will be the ebay code. • No wish list is required and no user log in is required.

* The cart should be integrated with the current site and it can be in any language, we will change servers if we have to.

* It may also be necessary to take the current system out of frames and edit the site, so HTML would be a required skill

If possible, would like to see previous shopping cart...
