Sooooo Complicated

Very complicated to place an order. No option/way to modify my cart while in checkout mode. Therefore, once I got to the point of writing down the address, since I couldn’t modify my cart, I had to go back completely, add the remaining items in my cart and re-type the address info bc it was not saved. This scenario happened a few times, so I am absolutely annoyed at having to type and re-type my address 5+ times. Also, PayPal does not work on the website. You authorize that method of payment, yet don’t proceed with it? That’s ridiculous. I tried on various PayPal accounts (mine and my partner’s), so I can safely attest that the problem doesn’t stem from either or our accounts but Dermstore’s side instead. Very frustrating experience. Shipping should be free past a certain point of $ for Canadian orders. Very greedy way of functioning in this day and age. 400$ worth of purchase yet you charge me shipping on top of it? Again, such a prehistoric flaw, when you take into account the lengths online businesses go to accommodate customers nowadays.
