You cannot make any changes to items in the basket such as removing an item or updating the quantities. There is a problem with updating items already in the basket.

Secondly, your 'My Recent Orders' is hidden in the Footer Navigation is small to say the least (0.9em)and really should be brought to a top level navigation within your View My Account Section! It took me ages to find it and Im no stranger to navigating round web pages to find details! Your basket wouldn't update my quantities when i changed them and had to abandon the order and re-order my products. Again your progammers can fix this easily. (Although doesn't stop me placing my order it is a little annoying). On your Homepage the main CTA's (Calls To Action) sit really low on the page fold and are hidden! Although you do have the Tab System at the top, these are not as nearly as strong as a the CTA's as the product images! *See Google stats on screen resolution's the majority of people use toolbars on their browsers like Yahoo,google etc bringing the viewable are even smaller. I make these comments not to be smart or anything, i just support good e-Commerce and want this industry to grow and help our economy (lord know's we need it now more than ever!!) the easier things are to find and quicker it is to purchase this will encourage repeat order and customer confidence. Keep up the good work guys and look forward to seeing more and more products being introduced throughout the year.
