Cherry Picker for Virtuemart
Hands Down! The best, most useful extension I've ever used. Cherry Picker let me set up my Virteumart site with a search like Amazon.com or New Egg. The author delivers on his promises.
The extension, when used with FastSeller component is even more impressive. I set up a 3,000 item store in a fraction of the time I would have if I hadn't had these components.
Tech support is fast and free.
Don't tell the guys , but I would have paid twice as much for these components!

GCalendar
I've always loved this extension and have used it on a few Joomla 1.5 sites. Now with 2.5 I had expected some improvements in this extension. It seems impossible to display an accurate time in 12 hour format. This is a deal-breaker for me and I'm afraid I'll have to look for something else. Too bad, this one has real promise as being a standard in many sites. But showing the proper time is a critical element.
Owner's reply

Sorry to say but it is not an issue. Since version 2.7.0 the 12 hours am/pm time format is the default one and believe me it works on thousands of GCalendar installations :-)
I hope you will reconsider your review.

JomLand Ticket Center
It's uncomplicated and easy to set up. Everything is working great and I'm finally able to sell event tickets from my site.
Tech support is great and the response time is short.
Locator
I've demo'd every Joomla! mapping solution available and, it's clear that this is the only one worth having. My clients demand clean, professional and user-friendly sites.
Locator has become my "go-to" component for all of my mapping. It does it all and does it very very well.
Pros:
Great Looking maps that are easy to read and navigate.
Perfect interface puts my clients information into the users hands
Simple component back end - tons of options
Multiple view options (for menu items)
Full-featured module that mirrors the full component's options
CSV IMPORT/EXPORT (If you've ever had to enter hundreds of lines of data, you'll know how valuable this feature is.)
World-Class customer service. I've had to ask for help on 2 issues over the past year. Both were problems that I caused myself. My questions were responded to in under 3 hours - both times solving the issue immediately. This company maintains a great website and Forum.

Cons: None. Absolutely none! You want to show map locations on your web site? This is the only component you will ever need for mapping.
