Tienda
I downloaded the free version for Joomla 2.5 and while I was enabling the plugins, it crashed my website. Every page had a one-line error message. I could not enter the admin backend to fix this. This page also opened with an error message. I thought I had lost my website for good. I wrote a support ticket at Tienda, but you have to subscribe to get support (pay for them to fix a major problem their extension caused?), and a question I left in their forum about this website crash was left unanswered.

I was left on my own with a crashed website.

I thought I had lost my website for good.

Fortunately, after many tries, I was able to fix the problem by going into the cPanel of my hosting company and removing every trace of Tienda from my website.

So learn from my experience, and STAY AWAY from Tienda. There are other reviews here that reported Tienda to be buggy. I should have listened.

Mini K2
Wow, I had been looking for ages for this sort of module and I found it, and it's free too. Despite it's humble name, it's the best sort of module of its kind. You can vary the appearance of it, and it shows thumbnails. The styling is very nice too-I don't have to change it. I can show it vertically, horizontally as a ticker, a portfolio or as simple vertical module displaying in the sidebars etc. Highly versatile. Wonderful and very easy to use. You can vary the size of the thumbnails. You can make it to show latest, most popular, etc. Thank you developers, it's a gem!

PR pricetable
I bought this and found that it doesn't work on my Joomla 2.5 site. It doesn't come out as a table; it comes out as a list! There is poor documentation, and there is NO support! They do not answer your emails. They ripped me off $5.00 for this one. DO NOT BUY! There are better extensions out there - even free ones - that work, unlike this extension.

Hello KIM,

This extension is working on joomla 2.5 version and this is certified by JED authority. Interesting we sent us mail and we replied. You sent another mail with saying
"Thank you very much!

It looks great!

Very happy with Support. "

You want to know the update version of this product on your next mail and we replied we are working for update version.

Please re-think about your review. Don't lie. This module is working on joomla 2.5 version.

Magic Price Table
I bought this extension because of the reviews and the demo. However, when I tried it out, the end result looks nothing like the demo. There is no zebra effect and you cannot choose white for the background of the rows. You cannot choose a different color for the text because it doesn't use any known code for text color, they use their own. The documentation is terrible. It doesn't tell you how to get a striped zebra effect as in the demo. Nor does it give you the option of white for the background. It doesn't tell you what code to choose to change text color. As a result my table looked like rubbish, and I was better off using the Joomla template's native table features. It was a waste of money. DON'T BUY THIS. I use Joomla 2.5 by the way.

We do not understand why you wrote this negative review (this review was sent prior his support questions).
After we reinstalled the module on your site (because you've not installed correctly), after more than 45 minutes, during which we worked free for you, after three emails sent to you, we believe this is not the correct way to thank us.
This is the last email sent:
"Hello KIM,
We arranged the module, as in our demo!
Please use this "Image Path" for:
Canceled: modules/mod_mpt/icons/cancel.swf (size: W23, H23)
Check: modules/mod_mpt/icons/check.swf (size: W23, H23)
Sign Up: modules/mod_mpt/icons/sign_up.swf (size: W138, H33)
Purchase: modules/mod_mpt/icons/purchase.swf (size: W138, H33)
Please note: For the image to be displayed correctly you need to set Image Width & Image Height.
If you want another image instead of Sign Up or Purchase (example: Order Now), you need to create and upload an image or an swf on your server and write the correct path.
For change a color (text or row) please use color picker!"
You have to be either malicious to write such a review. In fact, this review is a rant, not a honest point of view.
