    Awesome Plugin. Perfect start for the store I wanted to build. Sure it doesn't have all the fancy things that the other Shop plugins have, but it was a great starting point, so i did not have to build the listing/cart/checkout sections from scratch. Perfect plugin to add your own flair to the store
