I'm sorry to hear that you have had problems with the stores. If you do
have problems it is a good idea to email the Debian webmaster so we can
know there are problems.

Yes, it looks very unwell doesn't it? i'll contact the store and see
what is going on. It looks like a coding error.

Am I able to forward your email onto the CopyLeft people? The reason is
they need to not reply to me (as part of Debian) and then I can drop
them from the list. I'll look into those discussion board too. I don't
see there being a problem for forwarding the email considering you have
sent it to two public email lists, but I like to be sure.

I tried it and it seemed to work. Went to their site, clicked on add to
cart and then checkout and got that far fine. The next step was buying
the stickers so I'm not sure if the problem is beyond there but it looks
ok to the checkout point anyway.

Is that DebianStuff? CafePress seem to do a good job with most things.
