Well, when you asked this question a couple of weeks ago, several people
mentioned that your content is off the right hand side of the browser. It
still is. Are you going to listen this time?

Also, (and this was also mentioned last time you asked) it would be a good
idea to make it clearer that the prices on your items are for *multiple*
pieces of each part. Otherwise, people will take one look, and think you
are trying to rip them off, as the current layout leads one to believe it is
priced at "each", unless you look carefully. When you do notice that the
prices are for multiple parts, it does appear to be very competitively
priced.

Of course, I'm asssuming you are actually looking for input, as opposed to
just asking for the purpose of driving people to your site. That would get
very tiring, very quickly. I suggest you address the concerns people have
voiced to this question already, and let your prices draw the inevitable
customers due to the good will of people spreading the news by word of
mouth. Repeated requests for input which gets ignored will only earn you a
bad reputation. Good luck!

With every price ending in .95 or .99
it gives the impression of Retail rather than
wholesale. How about quantity pricing
instead of minimum quantities.

First of all, a small dark blue font on a black background is a total
pain in the ass to read... what't the point of that? If you must have
a different color, try something readable such as yellow, light blue,
etc.

I told them the same thing a few weeks ago. So, either they are idiots,
or, they are idiots.

Since you are asking about how the site 'navigates'...
The general markup validator of the world wide web consortium returns
102 errors on your mainpage.
If you want to feel a little bit more frustrated, check BOBBY for
accessibility issues of your page as well, the list is so big that I
couldn't even count the problems/issues.

Usually, their prices for parts like this are for quantity 5 or 10.
