Default Re: BV and cube cart together

Vasili, I agree with this last post but in your previous post you did show personal preference and stated:
"have many wonderful features that are far more advanced than sites designed using Blue Voda or integrated with MALS."

I was simply reacting to that statement as I do not believe that using a free cart provided by CubeCart or OSCommerce or Zen or any of the others, simply because they are driven by a catalog driven system, makes them any better - they are simply different. What might make one better than another are the options they have available to them - not the platform. The platform is a personal choice.

And I will also say that those same free carts I mentioned above may be and are superior to many carts I have seen which people are paying for.

I am totally in favor of people doing their own homework to find the best solution for them. And I never tell anyone that my solution is the one they should use. Karen can attest to that - as between us we've looked at and tried more carts than I want to think about - and have come up with different solutions for our own stores.

I'm very glad for all the options available - and I will try hard to stay away from a "cookie cutter" template for as long as I can - and that's what I find with the catalog driven shopping carts. I've always liked to follow a different drummer and at my age now I'm not about to change that :)
