 * Hello – I thought I would share some feedback about the plugin that might be 
   helpful if you are thinking of using it…
 * I am so disappointed with the plugin because of the PayPal Standard integration
   issues (I used the free plugin and purchased the Gold Cart upgrade).
 * (1) The system does not update after the transaction processes in PayPal, so 
   it shows payment pending and sends the ‘order pending: payment required’ email
   to the user. It is necessary to manually update WordPress to payment accepted.
   Then the system sends the ‘Purchase Receipt’ email to the user. (I also got an
   Instant Payment Notification warning email from PayPal.)
 * (2) The system sends the shipping name and address to PayPal, so if the user 
   is shipping to a different address than the billing address, he has to edit the
   billing data in PayPal. These two issues make for a very unfriendly experience
   to the user.
 * I posted details on the getshopped.org forum and found another user who had the
   same issue. I tried numerous settings and made a few changes to some of the php
   files, but have not been able to fix. I will never use this plugin again 🙁

 * Sorry to hear about your frustration! Bugs like this are very frustrating for
   end-users like yourself, and more so for folks like me, who work hard on building
   the plugin. We’re 100% aware of the second bug you mentioned (we’re working on
   fixing it) and the first one sounds familiar, but we’d need to confirm it.

 * Totally understand your frustration, we’re sorry to have lost you as a user –
   but I just wanted to let you know that you were heard and we’re working hard 
   on making this better than ever.

 * Justin – thanks so much for the fast reply – I really appreciate hearing from
   you! I posted on getshopped.org in October and did not hear back. I am glad that
   there are efforts to resolve the bugs. I was planning to rebuild the store but
   would prefer not to spend the time. So I will keep an eye on the link you posted
   to see when there is a fix. Please let me know if there are any other sources
   I can check to stay updated…
