Tienda
This is a good extension lost on a bad business model. They tell you it is non-commercial, but the reality is that it is sufficiently sophisticated that most people will need to purchase pricey support to get it to work.

Therefore, since you do have to pay for support/documentation to actually be able to use the thing, one would question if it is really non-commercial. It's like getting all the parts for a free car, but you'll pay dearly for the parts list and instructions.

Don't expect any help at all unless you pay. They do not offer even basic instructions of any kind and you will end up pulling your hair out over this one.
Owner's reply

Just to clarify - all of our documentation is available online for FREE.
We also provide a user-to-user forum area where you can ask other users the how-to questions.
The analogy about the car isn't quite accurate because you don't need to 'put together' Tienda - you just need to configure your payment processing, shipping, taxes (sorry, that area is complex thanks to politicians), and then set-up your catalog/products. Not sure how that is any more difficult than any other full-featured shopping cart (i.e. VM, Redshop, etc.).

Store Locator
The extension works great.

I did have some installation problems, and got just about the best support I ever received on any such product.

This guy is going to make a million dollars, I bet. He provides what we all want--a nicely functioning product and superior customer support.
