There are some issues with the store. I sent this in to the indicated email address (contact-bungiestore@sunriseid.com), but thought I'd post it here in case you guys don't get a copy of those emails:
(Btw, while I'm at it, I never received a free copy of Halo for the Mac from my contribution to the Myth Total Codex...oh well.)
Dear folks,
I went to http://www.bungiestore.com/ and attempted to purchase the green "Flaming Ninja" t-shirt. (http://www.bungiestore.com/productcart/pc/viewPrd.asp?idcate gory=7&idproduct=70) After selecting the color ("Green"), when I select the size from the pulldown menu it jumps straight back to the selection named "Size," making it impossible to add the shirt to my shopping cart. This is using the Safari browser on Mac OS X. Do you plan on supporting Safari on OS X?
Further, when I switched to a PC (using FireFox) and browsed to the store (during which I was able to add the shirt to my basket without the "Size" problem), I was asked to register. All set to register and get my grubby hands on the green "Flaming Ninja" shirt, I was dismayed to find that the registration page is unprotected by an SSL connection. I simply refuse to send my full name, phone number, email, new account password, billing address and type of credit card over an unsecured connection. This makes me giving you my hard-earned, cold cash rather difficult. Do you plan on securing this transaction? (http://www.bungiestore.com/productcart/pc/NewCustCheckOut.as p)
Finally, I couldn't find a way to bring up my shopping cart afterwards, which makes checking out after browsing around the store rather difficult. The only time I ever noticed a "checkout"/"go to shopping cart"-type link was when I actually added an item to my cart. It would be nice for users if you could add a "View Cart"-type link (see the top of Amazon.com's page for a good example). This would let us run rampant in our shopping sprees, and allow us to complete our purchase with ease after doing so. Do you plan on adding a "View Cart"-type link to a prominent location on your site?
Putting aside notions of conspiracy (why hast thou forsaken me, green "Flaming Ninja" t-shirt??), I decided to contact you.
Thanks for your concern, and I look forward to hearing back from you.
Michael
