Custom Rock Shop BigCommerce Theme
Locality fields, mineral filters and wholesale tiers for rock shops
Rock shop inventory runs from tumbled stone sold to gift shops by the pound up to a rhodochrosite on matrix that one collector has chased for a decade; those two buyers want very different things from the same website. BigCommerce handles that range well and Foxco builds a custom rock shop BigCommerce theme to match, with custom fields for locality, mine, dimensions and weight on every specimen, filters that narrow the catalog by mineral, country or price and price lists that show wholesale accounts their own rates once they log in. Gift certificates take care of the rock hound whose family never knows which specimen to pick. You get the whole thing for $999 installed and configured on your BigCommerce store.
A catalog as deep as your back room.

Rock Shop theme questions
Do I get a stock theme or something built for my shop?
Something built for your shop. Foxco starts from its BigCommerce framework for rock shops and builds it out with your brand, specimen categories and pages.
When will the new storefront be live?
Plan on 7-10 days once we have your logo, photos and product details. Rush jobs are possible, depending on our bandwidth at the time.
Can I bring in my existing specimen list from a spreadsheet?
Yes. The theme is set up around BigCommerce bulk product imports, with custom fields mapped for locality, size and weight. Cleaning up a messy older spreadsheet first can be handled as a custom project.
How do wholesale customers get their pricing?
Approved dealers go into a BigCommerce customer group tied to a price list, so they see wholesale rates and quantity breaks after logging in. Your BigCommerce plan and any paid apps are billed by BigCommerce and the app makers, separate from the $999.
The decade-long rhodochrosite hunter and the gift shop ordering forty pounds of rose quartz rarely stand at your counter on the same afternoon. Online they can show up within minutes of each other, so the theme gives each of them a clear lane through the catalog.
Specimen data that answers the collector
Serious buyers check locality before they look at price. Every specimen carries BigCommerce custom fields for mine, country, dimensions, weight and any repair or stabilization notes, set in a neat block under the photos. Filters built on those fields let a collector pull up every Moroccan vanadinite under two hundred dollars in a couple of clicks, which is about how they already think.
Wholesale rates behind a login
Gift shops, metaphysical stores and other dealers buying flats of tumbled stone or bags of rough shouldn't be looking at retail. BigCommerce customer groups and price lists let Foxco set up wholesale tiers with quantity breaks, so an approved account logs in and sees its own numbers. Tax-exempt resellers can be flagged on the account and their orders run through the same checkout as everyone else's.
Bulk uploads after a show buy
Coming home from a big show with three hundred new pieces is a good problem right up until you have to list them. The theme is built to work with BigCommerce bulk product imports, so a spreadsheet of specimens with their fields and prices can go live in one pass. Sold pieces can stay visible as a record of what has moved through the shop.
Collectors and dealers served from the same catalog.
