Hey, I've got a client wanting an e-commerce site. My first thought was to build it in rails and see what had already been done out there. I found ror-e.com and I plan on trying this out soon. Just wanted to shoot you a quick thanks for all the hard work on this! You've got some good looking videos I'm going to take a look at. I plan on donating if all goes well! Keep up the hard work, I for one appreciate it!

I've just used Spree on a project, and it is pretty easy to start off, but here is on major headache, while google group is great, IT IS A MAJOR HEADACHE to go there with every more or less complicated questions: while basic documentation is available, it mostly lacks once you start customizing. I literally spent 40% of the time trying to figure out, what's where in spree, trying to find blogs, or reading old or contradicting documentation, ending up just reading code. Documentation for a lot of features is either lacking, or seriously outdated. I may be unfair, but I just got so frustrated at times. I'm going to check our RoR e commerce right now.

I prefer 1000000 times ror_e instead spree, why? because I don't like the engines, they are a pain in the ass to maintain, I don't care about engines upgradeability, I can code myself and fix bugs, Spree took part of my day to figure out how the fuck it works, ror_e only took 10 minutes to setup, I've ported my existing photoshop/html template into it and works great!

O ror_ecommerce (ror-e.com) é infinitamente melhor que o Spree. #ftw

You guys have written a great ecommerce platform for Rails. It also seems like the footprint may be lighter than Spree or others. I am looking at using it for a donation platform similar to Kickstarter. Are there any major considerations that I should look at? thanks for the time.
