Hi

This is my webiste. www.kikowireless.com I'm trying to see if opencart is right for me. I have been using zencart for my website over a year already. I have a hard time using zencart, due to very slow speed of accessing my admin after adding large amount of products. I'm a wholesaler of cell phone accessories. The following is what I would like my website to do.

-provide a quantity box next to each product (example: http://www.kikowireless.com/index.php?m ... th=490_491)

-add to cart button next to quantity box

-set up a minimum quantity on each product

-do no display any price.

-All I want to do is let customer place an order without displaying any price. I will recieve the order list from my e-mail, later I will process my customer's order through e-mails or phone calls.

-the checkout should not ask for any shipping methods or credit card information.

-checkout only display products added and shipping and contact information.

- a easy way for me to link my products by manufacturer,carrier, and brand name.

-display newly added products and all product page.

-a template or theme that is similar to my website.

Please let me know if opencart can fillfull my request. I will be really happy if someone can help me out here. Thank you

opencart does this by default on the product page.
-set up a minimum quantity on each product
this is easily done in admin when you add products.
-do no display any price.

can not be done by default but is easy to prevent prices from showing.
-the checkout should not ask for any shipping methods or credit card information.

-checkout only display products added and shipping and contact information.
this can not be done by default unless all products are set to no shipping required.
- a easy way for me to link my products by manufacturer,carrier, and brand name.
brands and manufacturers are easily done with modules. not sure about carrier, but im sure someone can make you one if you cant find one to work

Latest module built in to opencart
-a template or theme that is similar to my website.
dont know what your site looks like but surely you can find one similar. or have one designed
