Sure, I assumed that's what you were doing, not wasting your time on my marginal business. I just thought this wasn't your typical freemium business as even your free users would be generating revenue from the transactions and as soon as any of them start selling a bit more it would be very easy to upsell them. To answer your question I'd easily take a free version of your 14$ plan with a 5% fee instead of 2%. I assume most people would be fine taking that deal just to launch a store to validate a concept. If it works you get an upsell, if not they go try something else.

I was just annoyed as the only other option I knew about was self-hosting something like oscommerce. I can do the self-hosting just fine but I've heard bad things about it and it looks so bad... Then along comes TicTail and I'm excited again. Even though their easy payment option seems to be paypal...
