excellent as an extension, easy to implement, allows us to create a simple page Product payable via paypal or google checkout.
I am looking for a quick solution for a client, who wants to sell a few products.
I installed this component and was delighted in the first few moments.
I even discovered that it can be used in a responsive template, so visitors can buy items from their mobile device as well.
But when creating a new product, I saw only the options "color" and "size".
This is not what I need. The strangeness about the whole thing is, that I can add as many options under "color" and "size" as I need and insert my own words.
Wouldn't it be quite logic to do this with the options "size" and "color" as well?
In that case I would be able to use options like "material", "width", "height" and other infos I want to show to my visitiors so they can pick the possibilities they need.
If the variations of "color" and "size" can be dynamically added, it cant be too much of a hassle to ad dynamically more options than "size" and "color".
Than it will be just a smashing component!
Best regards,

Nice job for a small shop. I had it set up with 8 items in short order. The PayPal interface worked well and there's not much to do once set up.
One draw back is that it only has product size and color. There could be a variable description field that would let you place your own item name and attributes.
Example: Pet -> Dog, Cat, Pony etc.

I am quite impressed with the simplicity of it all. If your not looking for anything too hardcore this is perfect.
I was not able to make all records appear on one page however, which unfortunately means I cant use this extension (unless there is a way and I am missing it).

Really super simple component - I installed it with Joomla 2.5 and it works fantastic! Although I had the same gripe about the images opening up in the same window like I saw in many of the other reviews - simply install their other component "RokBox" and refresh your cart and bingo! Works GREAT! Thanks!!!
I like this extension is simple to use and not complicated like some others. Just one thing I would like to see for the joomla version 2.5. When you click on the thumb picture it goes straight to the picture and then you have to hit the go back button and that is not very efficient, it would be nice to have open in a modal box or at least open in a new window instead in the same window.Other then that is an excellent extension.
This is the perfect SIMPLE shopping cart, except for the fact that it has not yet been upgraded catch up with the latest Joomla releases. 1.5 just doesn't cut it anymore.
I hope they are considering an upgrade. I would gladly pay.

I thought I had found the solution for a shopping cart on my site. Everything is wonderful - but there is one big flaw. When the thumbnail image is clicked on - the big image opens on another page and to navigate back from there is hopeless. It would have been nice to have a popup or lightbox. I did notice on the demo that there is this effect and I seached the forums for how this could be attained, but there are no answers. A shame. For this one simple problem I can´t use this, otherwise good extension for my site.
this component is great, but must have notified by email, must have both options, paypal as well as offline mode, thats via email,
will be great if you could bring this in future, because your cart looks great and ajax is superb,
please arrange also directly by email, no google or paypal mode,

Rokquickcart is good in many ways.
However, due to compatibility issues with Google Chrome, it does not show cart images of what you have added to your cart, only text filepaths. This looks bad, and leaves the customer wondering whether they are purchasing the actual item they wanted.
Rocket Theme have not offered a fix for this as yet, even on their paid subscription support forum, of which I am a member. They are oddly reluctant to comment on this glaring issue.
So unfortunately, as growing numbers of internet users migrate to Google Chrome, it leaves this potentially good extension, somewhat redundant.

I agree this is great, simple extension. However, like others I need an offline payment solution. RokQuickCart only offers PayPal and Google checkout.
However, I looked into de code and saw that SimpleCart (a javascript cart) in which RockQuickCart is based, already offers an additional checkout option: Email. I don't know why the people at RocketTheme decided to not include it, but I think maybe with a little coding you may be able to activate the option that is already there.
I'm not a coder and can't do it by myself.
Maybe someone want to get an eye on that code?

RokQuickCart is an excellent extension:
- easy to install
- easy to configure (settings are made in few minutes!)
- customizable: shipping, vouchers, payment, photo
- very good for a little shop, when there are few items
I didn't know RokquickCart and is was a happy surprise

After attempting to use several of the top shopping carts for my site, and after several days of struggling through carts and check out buttons, I discovered Rokquickcart. It simply Rocks.
I only needed a simple button for my site, to land my customers to a check out shopping cart. Dah. You think it would be easy to find, right?
My only dilemma with Rokquickcart is that I need to learn how to adjust some of the inner dynamics....code.....to allow for multiple categories, because I only have one item per joomla article. I dont want all of my items on one page.
The fellow reviewer, Kokujin (as of last december), figured out a way to do this. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Installed in minutes, just the ticket for our non-profit Chamber of Commerce.
We desperately need categories, I wish kokujin would have described a little more how "mod it a bit to have multiple Categories" looks.
Since it is not a "mod", it is a component and plugin, what was done to make categories work (I would think edit component and mysql).
