Great work, love the design. One thing I'd like to see before I sign up, though, is a sample "product / purchase page". When I needed something like this I ran to Gumroad because I had used them before (as a customer) and loved the experience.

This.
Basically all the emphasis is on the shorturl, which is a nice feature but the least important factor when selling products on an online store (hyperlinks are older than ecommerce, after all). There's nothing about what the buying process is like for the customer, how you support fulfilment, how easy it is to tweak prices/availability etc. - it's all assumed away by the "how it works" section which seems to imply you don't do anything after initial setup.

Thanks! That's a great point and we're in the process of creating a few more product screenshots and possibly a video demo to cycle in that header area. In the mean time feel free to take a look at it here: http://crop.to/fW

Thanks; That link made me understand what the service is. (The home page, "How it Works", and FAQ did not.)

I notice that my shirt size isn't included on the final confirmation page. Seems like it should be.

Outsch. We're fixing that as we speak. Our apologies.

Much better! I really, really like the design. Better than Gumroad IMO. On the other hand, I would highlight a bit more or add more contrast to the link "My shipping address is not in the US", just in case. Other than that, it would be great to have a "test product" just like this but where we wouldn't need to input real CC details, just to check out the whole process, emails being sent, etc.
Anyway, on what I've seen so far: Congratulations!
So then you only support physical products for now, or also digital ones (no shipping, etc)?

Thanks for the feedback and we're working on a test product feature for sellers.
Yes, we only support physical products for now. Digital goods will be coming soon.

Is there any way to be added to your mailing list or something to be updated of new features in the product? If so, feel free to add {my username}@gmail.com to it.
