The Aisles Shops



Here at Aisles Shops, we have brought a new perspective to malling.
We are not part of the classic supermarket, quickmart chain malls.
We are different.

Aisles Shops
are based on what could be found in a real life town.

Our goal is to provide our shoppers with an interesting take on malling.
While we do attempt to cover all categories, our shops are mostly specialty.
In each store is a unique and complete interpretation of what items are carried.
Most of our categories are based on what one would expect to find in a real life shop,
if there is an equivalent.
Our shopkeepers are dedicated to filling their shops with well priced diverse items.

Aisles Shops Rules





Display the mall banner.
A simple and obvious rule. Do not alter the mall code.
If you have an individual shop banner it can be placed above or below the mall banner.
However any other ones, please place below it.
The maximum should be two.
Also, do not add a link that skips over the mall banner.
Our banner is designed to be as unobtrusive as possible
and it is very important for each shopper to see the banner.
The uniqueness of our mall depends on it.

5% rule.
This is a rule to keep your shop stocked with items that will interest your customers.
It allows you to sell off random non-category items when you come across them at any time,
as long as the total does not exceed 5% of your shop size.
Being percentage based allows for fairness and ease in calculation.
Items should be *wiz priced to sell off, so that they don't hurt fellow mallers.
Example: A Shop sized 288 can hold 14 non category items. 5% of 288 is 14.

No linking to shops outside our mall.
We want the shoppers to be able to easily travel from store to store within our mall system,
so links to other shops are restricted to the mall banner.
You may, and are encouraged to, link to petpages related to your shop,
but not links to stores not owned by mall members.

Do not overprice.
Pricing is a difficult balance.
You will need to price things low enough so that it a good value to customers while also pricing them so that items do not fly out of your shop faster than you can replenish them.
As a general rule you should try and keep some items on each page within the first 3 listing on the regular shop wizard.
Having a selection priced based on the shop wizard will bring people into your shop.
More shoppers!

Vacation time.
In any situation where you will be away for more than a week
please neomail bats1951 to let her know.

Leaving the mall.
It is understood that things change.

As mall owner, I reserve the right to remove any shops from the malls, if they are inactive.
You are welcome to mail me in the future, about rejoining though.

I do ask for seven days notice if the need to leave arises.
During this time please keep the mall banner and your shop stock the same.
Be sure to neomail bats1951when giving notice. Thank you. .

If at any time, you wish to change categories, please mail bats1951 and let her know.

Senseivan

If you would like an individual shop banner making,
please contact Lukeneedsatrim
and tell him what items you would like on it. We have a sticky thread on shop ads chat, called ABC: Aisles Board Chat, it is a restock/chat thread.
It has definitely helped with sales, and getting bookmarked.
Please join us there, for lots of laughter, and tips and to meet everyone.

The items frames are now the same for both malls.
The use of them is optional.
The coding for them is found in the box underneath each mall banner.
The coding goes on last in the shop edit box.
Thanks Wizzney for all her hard work.

The coding for the items frames, are found under each mall banner.
The coding should be placed last in shop edit.

We do have a Waiting List, if you know of anyone who would like to join us later. Please ask them to mail me.

A Tip – as the shops are based on what could be found in the real life ones, everyone is allowed to sell coins if they wish. There is also a toy cash register.
Everyone can use the starry plain backgrounds,
And any backgrounds related to their own categories



An up-to-date quest items page, as at 9th February 2012

QUEST PAGE

items that you have in your sdb. etc.
No-one has to participate if they don't want to, they are optional.

Garage Sales Rules
There is no limit to how many out of category items you can sell off during a Garage Sale,
providing you keep your regular category items in there too.
Garage Sales will be held occasionally and you must adhere to the dates neomailed to you and posted on here..
To participate in a Garage Sale, you Must add the garage sale banner
below the mall banner, and remove it at the end of the sale.
At the end of the sale you are also expected to remove the Garage Sale items that haven't been sold off.
All items that are out of your normal category, must be *wiz priced to sell,
so that they don't hurt our other mallers sales.

The next Garage Sale will be commence at 00.01 on 20th June 2012
and finish on 24th June 2012 at midnight.




* Explanation of what wiz pricing is:
Shops are divided into multiple lists by what letter or number the username starts with.
They are divided into the following wizard groups:
a n & 0, b o & 1, c p & 2, d q & 3, e r & 4, f s & 5, g t & 6, h u & 7, i v & 8, j w & 9, k x & _, l & y, m z & I.
What this means is that all usernames beginning with the characters a, n, and 0 will be in one section, b, o and 1 will be in another, and so on. If you don't have Premium and SSW, refresh the shop wiz for every item until you come across the listing your username will appear on. Your Garage Sale items should appear on top of your listing!




There are two new banners for use by Aisles mallers.
One is for general use, and is to go immediately above the items in your shop, if you wish to use it.
It can also be used on lookups.

The second one, is only for use, if you are changing categories
