furman Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Hi,Can anyone who has setup a UK Prestashop store please give some views on its' suitability out of the box or with addons for use as a UK store please. I want to use this for a basic store with Paypal and/or Google checkout with the option for Cheque and Bank transfer. I am not VAT registered yet but will need to be soon so a working VAT system would be great.Also, shipping options, I will use custom prices based on Royal Mail and courier.I have an Actinic store and I did try Magento but that was just too stressful and a non professional coder, I also bought CRELoaded but that required a lot of work to get the addons and localisation.Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roastchicken Posted March 29, 2010 Share Posted March 29, 2010 Hi Prestashop does take into account VAT. I'm also opening a UK shop but have ran into difficulties with multiple shipping methods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adibranch Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 then the fault there lies with your shipping requirements, not PS. PS will work fine for a UK shop, but requires some template changes to alter the address layouts etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony84 Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Ive used it for a few of my shops.I found it easier to set up than oscommerce and a few others.Works fine never had any major issues apart from setting up postage but after reading the manual i got there with it.
