    Anyone use magento go before? I signed up to the free trail and really like the flexibility it offers. Its also good just to help get a small business off the ground and selling online. There plans are also quite reasonable.

    As a small business selling video games could something like this be sufficient? I was looking at getting a website design but was looking in the range of 3-5k and for only starting i think that is a big risk, using something like this will allow me to sell products and gauge if there is a decent market for the products before committing to an investment like that.

    Does anyone know if realex is compatible with magento go?

    Just had a quick look at it - hadn't heard of it, I've been using Magento's standard community edition.

    First thing that stands out is you seem to be restricted to <storename>.gostorego.com, which isn't great from an SEO point of view.

    Can't find any mention of Realex with it though.

    Yeah i couldnt find anything to do with realex. I emailed realex asking if they support it, but havent heard back. Is sagepay a good alternative? As for custom domains you can set that in the user control panel, but you must be signed up to a plan. So about 25dollars per month

    Edit: Just got an email from realex. They said it wont be a problem to set up there sytem with a magento go store as the shopping cart is pretty much the same.
