When you are looking at your cart, it would be helpful if the back button would put you back on the same page in the search results that you last were on. Instead, it has you go back to page 1 in your search. I always have to remember which page I was on when I want to view my cart. I go back and forth quite often, and it is annoying. Also, I was looking for storm duos in a real red, a real dark blue, and a dark teal. Didn't find any of those colors. I look for these colors a lot in purchasing other types of beads, too, and your site doesn't offer very many choices if any at all.
