 Mini Model Film Stuff is one of seven departments of our own online shop (minimodelshop). It has undergone many upgrades and this year has had a complete re-vamp to bring it completely up to date in every aspect of online shopping and web design. Selling film and tv memorabilia, such as figurines, scene-scapes and artefacts, it is an example of a higher end e-shop. For instance, it consists of "multi-level" navigation. By this, we mean that if you select a category on the left hand side, you will be brought to a page (like a mini home page) for that category whereby you can filter your search by selecting a sub-category (unlike with Mrs Christmas, where you select something from the left hand menu and get the results straight away). When a sub-category has been chosen, the list of results then show up (left hand, bottom image - click to enlarge). With some results, they can be filtered down even further with more options displayed at the top of the list (circled in left hand, bottom image - click to enlarge).This type of filtering is beneficial to those customers that have a large amount of stock and/or categories to display. With the functionality of being able to group products, this e-shop can also show customers similar items that they might be interested in (right hand image - click to enlarge).
The home page has an animated banner, which can be switched on and off as and when needed. This is useful for things such as special offers, sales or new items that you might wish to draw attention to. The checkout and order form follow a similar format as Mrs Christmas, but is customised to look like the rest of Mini Model Film Stuff.
