TL;DR Use UTF for Seller's name.

Looks like a bit better Gumroad. Design is nice, blah blah blah. Why I'm writing is this: when activating account what the hell is supposed to be Seller's Name?

This annoying popup keeps telling me "Must contain only letters, numbers, or - ( ) , . ' &". I must say I haven't seen many names with numbers or ampersands in it. If it's meant to be a username, than ok but say it specifically. If it's really meant to be a name - it's 2013 for Ozzie's sake, use the damn UTF.

Also, ampersands are common in company names. (Procter & Gamble, etc)

Companies.. yeah, you're right. Although the whole site feels to me like it's mainly focused on individuals.

We thought we fixed that bug. might just be some left over JS validation. we'll get into it.

Thank you :)
