Shopping Cart For vB4?

[ozzy47]

Will be interesting to see how it turns out.

Ok Nick I bought that shop version a long time ago from Micheal's shop when it was up and I've used it before so I'm well aware of how much work goes into making it work. Or at least making it work the way I want it to work. I may try it again, but I'm not entirely sure as I'll need it to work with the latest version of vBulletin every time I upgrade vB. I have to have that because the shop I'll be running will be a skin shop to sell vBulletin skins, OSCommerce, phpBB, Wordpress and so on. So in order to keep up with what customers will want (the latest skin for vB 4.......) I have to be able to update it and not have it break the site in the meantime. I'll check out those links in the meantime though.

I'll keep it updating to any 4xx version but only for compatibility, no for new features unless if I want to add something for my own use. In this case I'll share the new version.

For sure it will not be updated for 5.x

Sorry as I can't share a link of my installation, but I think that especially the inteface (with big thumbs) should be fine for you. Give a look on a similar mod (never published anywhere).

1.- Homepage (Categories): https://www.lagadas.com/ads.php
2.- Products listing (per category): https://www.lagadas.com/ads.php?do=c...y&categoryid=1
3.- Mouser over the thumbs to see Social Media sharing

The page are in Greek but you'll see how it looks like.

Well I most likely would not be adding anything to it, all I need is the ability to allow downloads of the skin that they bought after they put in their url. I won't be making any other changes that I know of and I can code stuff into it with no problem. I ran it before HEAVILY modified so I just wanted to make sure that I can update vb.

Yes, it works this way.

If you were able to modify the huge old version be sure that it will be very easy to modify my version as it's solid and small.

Yes, you'll be able, as I'll update my own version.

An additional note. I got permission to release as stand-alone addon, so I need 1-2 days more to make some changes especially changing the name.

Ok Thanks Nick

@HM666

Are you operating a local or international shop? From what I read before, most probably you're operating an international one.

Be aware that from 1st January 2015, according to new EU resolutions for electronics sales you must collect EU VAT from clients living in EU countries (EU zone) without a valid VAT id.

Please read it carefuly. Doesn't matters if you're a US (or any non EU country) business. If you deal with EU clients you must collect EU VAT.

And here is a rule modification from an Australian marketplace selling scripts/templates

[HM666]

Er ok. It says that I'm operating a business outside a EU country I do not have to charge it. I'm in the US, European laws I'm pretty sure do not dictate here just as US law does not dictate there with the exception of copyrights. In this case there are no copyright infringements because I make the styles from scratch. Seems to me that if someone from an EU country bought something it would be up to them to pay a VAT tax.

[TheAdminMarket]

No, it's for all but really don't know how it should works. My English is not in a high level to understand such rules. But I read it in Greek. Also in the 2nd example the business is an Australian company. So, non EU.

Also in the official site it has an example:

NON-EU BUSINESSES supplying to:
---------------------------
1. Business in the EU
No VAT charged. Customer must account for the tax (reverse-charge mechanism).
2. Consumer in the EU (telecoms, broadcasting or electronic services)
Must charge VAT in the EU country where the customer belongs. Example A person living in Barcelona pays a US company for access to American TV channels. The US company must charge the customer Spanish VAT. MOSS available

So, (always in simple English), if I order/buy something from you, and because I'm locating in an EURO zone country you must collect from me 23% EU-EL Vat (the VAT in use in Greece).

In short terms this is what changes:

1.- Till Dec 31st, 2014 is:
VAT payable in ("place of supply") ........so as your Shop is locating in USA, you don't have any obligation to collect VAT.

2.- From Jan 1st, 2015 should be:
always be taxed in the country where the customer belongs
........in this case has no sense if your Shop is in USA, or in Canada or anywhere (non EU), but where the CLIENT is locating.

I'll look at it further and read up on it, thanks.
