I paid for Premiums Support over a week ago and to date have not heard from them or received any support at all.
Feels like a scam.
Can anybody tell me if they are actually still doing anything?
How do I get my money back because clearly they have not provided what was purchased.
VERY UNHAPPY!!!
AND
What is the point in having a link to non-existing ‘training videos’?
On the Details page you have:
Learn quickly with our video tutorials
Click on the ‘video tutorials’ link and you get a ‘Page Not Found’ error.

First of all, the code is not documented AT ALL! and they code in a way which is impossible to be understood without documentation.
Second, no documentation is online on their website, they don’t reply to emails and none of the issues related to this plugin on github or on www.remarpro.com are solved, they have not even tried to solved them. So I assume there is no support team.
Everyone, use WooCommerce, I haven’t tried it yet, but it’s definitely better supported.
To be honest, I am disappointed I can’t give them 0 stars instead of 1.

Just first time I have to set up a WordPress payment, and this Plugin just made it extremely easy. I’ve just had an issue from my server and the IPN, that was filtered and blocked. The amazing support service of this plugin spot the problem and now i can use it without any problem.
A big Up for Mihai and WP eCommerce!

I’m not new to WordPress. I expect to spend a little time trying to have to figure out a new plugin or product. That said, I was hoping this would offer a simple but powerful eCommerce solution that requires a unique product setup on my site. First of all, there is absolutely no documentation that explains how to actually make it usable. Where’s the cart? How do I add a checkout to the menus? The documentation makes no attempt to help. Their “installation” page is 1 paragraph, and it tells me basically how to install a WordPress plugin. Duh. I need to know how to setup your product. How to effectively add a product, how to get it to show up in one of my pages, how to get to the cart, how to get to the checkout.. There’s just nothing that goes over ANY of this basic but critical information. Furthermore, their own site where they have documentation, is so riddled with dead links and dead images, and dead video links, I strongly wonder if the product is even still in development.
Also, I was optimistically going to plop down $99 or so for a premium add on but after this horrible experience I think I’ll pass.

I started using this plugin quite some time ago. It was easy to use and worked.
I do not know what has changed, but the sale process works (the purchase the paypal occurs), but the link does not. Stating the link is not longer available contact the admin…
I’ve spent hours and hours turning in circles over the past few weeks and finally have decided to walk away and have built everything myself from scratch and it works.
Something has changed, I don’t know what and just not interested in fighting. Too bad because originally it was very good.

We have used WP eCommerce for several years now, for our website that sells hundreds of antique maps. It was a lot of work to set up, but that was because we had loads of products to upload. The settings were straightforward with the documentation. The issues we had were with the PayPal Standard vs. Express. The Express does not seem to work, but the Standard gave the result we needed with the Gold Card plugin. In the past, we have sometimes had little luck with support, but lately the response has been quick and effective.

We’ve been using WP eCommerce and Gold Cart for over 5 years. We have had very few issues with it over those years. Recently we had another plug in that wasn’t allowing the cart to update, but after chatting with support, they were able to log in, identify the problem and fix it quickly. I highly recommend it!

Though it may be good alternative for massivelly (too massivelly if you ask me) used WooCommerce, but hell no. Many basic functionalities are not there at all, many of them only via plugins usually for tens of dollars each. So getting so-so usable result would need investment of hundreds of dollars, no, thanks.
But worst of all, the bloody cart/checkout does not work properly anyway. Plus language support is bad even when I tried to manually translate it using gettex editor (poedit) – many of the declarations do not work or are missing completely!
Support is close to none unless you have bought the extra version for hrundred backs. This is a joke.

I was one of the very first users of this plugin YEARS ago. I have seen VERY LITTLE progress in developing this plugin to work like a REAL e-commerce plugin. Making simple edits like bulk changes in pricing for all items in a category cannot be done. Sure the interface lets you THINK it can be done, but the changes do not take effect.
The checkout page is so wonky your best bet for conversions is to simply use the BARE MINIMUM for forms, do not bother gathering address information, and just use paypal payments standard. But IF you try to gather shipping info or shipping location for shipping charges to be passed to paypal, the checkout page gets weirdly redundant and will just confuse shoppers causing cart abandons.
I have therefore had to simply deactivate the shipping modules and offer free global shipping on every order SMH.
I cannot wait to finish the migration to woocommerce. Getting loose of wp-e-commerce will be the best thing I can possibly do for business.
There is 0 theme support for this plugin anyways.
Oh and what is really crazy is that any product that was on my site before their major update cannot be edited, images show but cannot be accessed or changed out without major headaches.
This plugin needs a ground up rebuild or to simply be left for dead.

WP eCommerce plus their Authorize.net SIM plugin has worked perfectly for me. I installed it a year ago and recently the Authorize.net SIM plugin needed an upgrade. They created the upgrade for me and now that’s working perfectly as well.

Gold cart plugin for Wp-ecommerce is worthless code and the support is non existent. Always breaks when WordPress is updated and there is absolutely no support. I submitted a support request because the grid view was having no effect and got no response after weeks. I finally submitted a dispute with PayPal before I got any response at all and then all they said was you have to enable grid view. Oh my god….. I do tech-support as a profession and I have been doing websites for quite some time….
Crap code and Crap support…

Hello All:
I’m told that wordpress is an open source project and that contributors are not supposed to hide code. I’ve been looking for code that is causing a glitch for weeks. No support or answer to any posts.
I’m looking to move to another framework.
Too bad because I had to purchase a plugin for moneris….
Not impressed

Wow, where do I begin…
I bought the premium ‘gold card’ edition of wp-ecommerce after the lite version worked ok. I didn’t like the ugly default ‘list’ layout of products in the lite version, so I upgraded to get the grid view. What drew me in, was the fact they brand this plugin as super user friendly, quick to set up, simple and beautiful layout etc… not to mention their slogan -“Everything you need to start selling today.”
I activate it, and I get this:
https://i217.photobucket.com/albums/cc251/Krys__10/Screen%20Shot%202016-04-28%20at%2013.54.22.png
It looked an absolute mess, the text was vertical, everything was compacted together, definitely not the grid view that I expected… I tried for many hours trying to fix this with no luck. So as I now have the ‘premium 1 to 1 support’ I gave them an email explaining the situation, and I needed some help.
1 day went by, then 2, then 3…At this point I had put messages out to every email I could find, I was desperate to get my store up and running.
I eventually got a reply after 4 days, explaining their support team had be on holiday and they’d be in touch soon, which is fair enough…but I wish I knew this before hand.
After over a week of sending emails, I finally had a response from the support team and I thought I was getting somewhere… the grid feature was almost fixed, which was sorted over the course of a week…but everything else seemed to go wrong, there were just so many issues, everything looked a mess when I clicked on a product and it was just not functional at all. I emailed again…at this point, I knew on average it took 3 days for someone to get back to me, so I patiently waited, but this time I got no reply at all.
At this point, after more than two weeks of ‘premium support’ I was so appalled by the service, I reverted back to Woocommerce which I got up and running in one day. I couldn’t risk having my store down for yet another day, loosing out on potential sales.
Understandably, I asked for a refund. Again, no reply to any of my emails, so I marked it as a dispute on Paypal, in which the response I got was:
“Sorry to hear about your needing to move
to another platform. Per our policy, our
team was not granted sufficient time to
help you with your request, and we are
unable to grant a refund in this case.”
Apparently nearly 3 weeks is not enough time to resolve things, even as a premium support customer.
Sorry for the long rant, I am just so angry about the situation and want to warn everyone incase you consider buying the over priced $99 ‘premium’ support.

I’m a developer managing about 50 very successful ecommerce sites running WP e-Commerce. It’s had a difficult past – code quality wasn’t great, updates broke too many installs and bugs were rampant. In the last few years a new dev team has rewritten pretty much everything and it’s a great option.

I have tried a number of other shopping carts, but have always run into problems with them. I always go back to wp ecommerce. I find it very easy to set up and it does almost everything I require. Support is friendly and helpful too, which is very much appreciated.
I have three suggestions for future versions (if anyone is listening out there):
1. Maybe there’s a way to get the text to wrap on a mobile device. It is hard to read a paragraph that runs 2 characters vertically, and quite off-putting to shoppers.
2. I find the “add to cart” button is way off to the right. I have had customers who couldn’t figure it out. It would be helpful if the button was right beside or under the select quantity box.
3. Setting up shipping costs is really impossible to do accurately. This would be a good solution: Allow for shipping for one item, shipping for two items, and shipping for 3 items. So, if the base rate is $12 to ship one item, and a customer adds another item that could go in the same parcel, the shipping add on cost could be, for example, $4 for the second item, and maybe $2 for a third item (all set by me) so that the total shipping cost for 3 items would be $18, as opposed to $36.
I sell on Etsy and this is how they do it, though I think they only allow 1st item, plus additional items (so,$12+$4+$4=$20). The main shipping cost always defaults to the product that has the highest amount set. They also let you specify different rates for different destinations (cananda, us, eu, asia, etc.) which is all really good for business. Myself, I am often deterred by the high shipping rates and have abandoned more that one cart over the years!
Food for thought anyway. Thanks for the great plug-in, and all the work that has gone into it.

Couldn’t be happier with the cart – and very flexible. Support is easy, fast and right on. I’ve used several others, but WP eCommerce is unique with a robust community with a ton of add-ons.
