I am very pleased with the new post-sale features & have seen an increase in my storefront sales. These sales could be much more with a couple new features.
First is categories. I list lots of jewelry on ebay as well as in my storefront. The problem is that all ebay auctions in the ebay category "jewelry" are placed in my storefront in a category named "jewelry." And my storefront items listed under the category "jewelry>pearls, rhinestones etc" only appear in the sub-categories. My buyers browsing my storefront of 600+ items will go directly to the storefront category "jewelry" which contains only auctions. Please upgrade this soon.
Also I have buyers who purchase multiples of items. For example a bride purchasing pearl necklace sets for her attendents will buy as many as 12 sets of one item. Regardless of how many I have placed in my storefront from my inventory page the storefront listing shows a quantity of one (1).
These changes will greatly increase my storefront sales & benefits me and AW.

I completely AGREE! I have been using a trial version of another "storefront" and they really have a great way of categorizing everything!
I would like to stay with AW because I'm used to it and I feel "comfortable" with it; however, my buyers have got to be able to navigate through my 600 items. I cannot even image how those seller who have more than I do get along.
If AW could replace the "Featured Items" on the initial page with the simplified categories (chosen by the seller), that would make things a whole lot easier!!
Also, this other "storefront" I've been considering gives you the option to put choices within each listing. This is great for me because I sell bedding and most of my products come in several sizes. I currently have to create a new listing for each and every size (which only clutters my storefront)...I wish AW could give us some ways to offer different sizes/colors/etc.
I hadn't noticed that the quantity only reads one no matter how many we have available, that is also a problem with me, because, for example, someone wants to purchase pillow shams to match a quilt, they don't just want one, and may decide not to purchase at all if only one sham looks to be available.
