Anartik.com’s Blog

This blog… is really about passing on info about Anartik.com or info I want to share. I am about at the point of disabling comments altogether because of the scum sucking spammers that flood this blog. There are few if any legitimate comments and most are crap coming from India, China and Russia related to peddling counterfeit pharmaceuticals. What few legit comments that come in usually get buried under the 100’s or 1000’s of spam posts corralled by Askimet anti-spam.

It just came to my attention that something has changed on Yahoo store or perhaps I was fooled because of the existence of a cookie. When you go to checkout you must fill out all the required fields in order to get a shipping quote. This means name, address, phone and email. Then you can select a method and hit apply to get shipping rates. I’ll be the first to say it sucks and I spent some time on the phone with Yahoo support tonight and that’s just the way it is. However as long as you don’t delete all your cookies your cart remains persistent (even empty) and you will be able to get shipping info without the extra hassle.
