PLEASE NOTE: J2store is a simple, easy to use shopping cart. It offers all the neccesarry features you need in a cart, but has no extra features like full shipping methods, zone/region based shipping, stock control or track-and-trace. If you need that kind of features in your cart, you'll have to look for an other cart.If you just want a simple, sleek, effective shopping cart, J2Store is just right for you!
How it works:
1. Install J2Store, configure and save the params.
2. Go to the Article Manager, create a new article
3. On the right-side sliding panel, you will find J2Store sliding panel. Click to open it and enter the price.
4. (optional) you can also set tax rates (for which you should create tax profiles in the J2Store backend)
5. (optional) Set product attributes and options
6. Save and publish the article.
Voila! you have just created a product ready to sell.

This extension shows promise but still has room for improvement. Currently, the sales tax can not be limited to orders shipped to a specific state or jurisdiction. The developer was nice enough to offer customization, but 8-10 hours was out of budget for this project. If it is developed, I am sure I would not be the only one willing to pay for the extension or even a plug-in for the extension to have that capability.

J2Store is essentially a simple shopping cart. We have never mentioned that we are offering all the features of a shopping cart.
If you look at the features, we have clearly said what it would do. It was not fair to expect something that was not at all available in the features list.
We also kindly informed about the non-availability of such a feature. Even then you chose to wrote an unfair review.
JED editors should consider removing this review.
Does not work after upgrading Joomla.

Hello Friend

Every software has bugs and we are improving J2Store a lot. Its not fair to write misleading review like this.

I've been looking for an easy to set up shopping cart to sell digital media from my site. This one fits my needs perfectly. Great job on this one!
J2Store is simple. It does what it says.
I wanted to sell digital publications and this extension turned out to be the best among other shopping carts. I had experienced few issues with this app, but J2Store developers helped me fix them quickly. My questions were answered quickly and even had one of the developers to look into the site and fix the issues.
Good support. J2Store has a great future.

J2Store is awesome. A great shopping cart for Joomla...
It lets you turn Articles into products, thus giving you a great control over the display of products.
And the support is extraordinary. The developers are always there to help in the forums.
If the folks keep up the work and add more features, J2Store will turn out to the best shopping cart for Joomla
I highly recommend this extension

J2Store is so easy to install - literally one-click installation. From there, it is seamlessly integrated into your joomla shell allowing for easy pricing, tax, handling and all sorts to be added to a checkout. Further, the support team at the site are SUPER helpful. I posted three questions and they were all answered within 4 hours!!! Cannot recommend this extension highly enough - best free cart extension out there.
J2 store is just startling! I was excited once using it. The folks who are not even technically sound can configure it with ease. I used various extensions but J2 Store looks as if the best. It just requires an eye blink’s time to setup an online store.
I highly suggest this excellent extension J2 Store

This store is just what i needed.
The selling of articles works great.
Some minor bugs, which i hope will be fixed soon. But this is a fast and easy way to sell personal stuf, without setting up a difficult webshop.
It also has fast support via the forum !
Keep up the good work !

Thank you
This is an excellent shopping cart extension. It's from the same developer of wonderful K2 Store, which integrates a shopping cart into the K2 content extension. Having a separate extension is smart because some people may want to keep K2 content separate from their store or may not want to use K2 at all. I've used the K2 Store extension for a long time and now I am testing this for projects that may require a store but not necessarily K2. So far it is excellent, every bit as good as K2 store.

Hi, I guess that I was the one form first lucky ones to use this extension. It is incredible easy to install, configure and use. You can add amount of tax, give some general % promotion for all of products, you can provide the option of the product in very easy way, add to cart effect is made in nice looking ajax type, there is also a cart module... what to need more?! Thank you :)

Thank you
I must to say on the start: i used only demo on the developers site.
But for this idea i forecast a big future for this extention! This is a sole Joomla ecommerce extention, which uses REGULAR, NATIVE Joomla content items as shop goods. This means, you may use all parts of Joomla universe with your ecommerce items. The developer must only do his job good, keep bugs away and so on, and we get really beautiful ecommerce extention with long life and much usefulness.
