I don't own a store, so this is only my take as an observant, prospective customer:<p>The JPGs are poor quality. In addition to using higher quality images, how about an actual photograph of the poster at an angle? That will show the quality of the posters.<p>Also, what are the dimensions of these posters? Do you have any info on the paper they are printed on, or the ink?<p>The only thing I see, is a sparse storefront, with a low-quality image, and a price. Nothing is instilling any confidence in the product or the store. There is nothing that makes it seem "real". No actual photographs or original branding. The store uses a generic name. Nothing is wrong with using a generic name, but without any branding, it seems like some dictionary words that are just thrown together.<p>You've taken the first step to build a business, which is a lot more than what other people have done that just have ideas but never act on them. I wish you the best.

Congratulations on launching your first store! I've always been a fan of vintage propaganda posters myself.<p>I ran into a problem though: I wanted to browse through the posters on the homepage but there were no links to do so. I was kind of wondering what to do next. (Your "Shop" page was more along the lines of what I was expecting with the links at the bottom.)<p>The posters seem a bit on the expensive side. Maybe there's a reason for that! Is it high quality paper, or do you offer incredibly fast shipping, or is there some other reason I should choose you instead of a competitor? Maybe your pages (should) have historical context for how or why the poster came to be and you're the historical poster expert.<p>Keep up the good work and keep us posted on how things go with your new store.
