The most significant change for 2007 has been the addition of an Online Catalog in May. The online catalog represents and opportunity for RG Riley to display our products without requiring registration or logging onto the ordering system.

The main page of the online catalog also includes the Riley Super Buy which has attracted considerable attention. This is our special of the day and we think an extreme value. The Riley Super Buy is updated nightly Sunday through Friday.

The catalog allows are customers and guests to view products by age range by clicking on one of the age images located at the bottom of the online catalog main page. Users can also view products by clicking on one of the many product categories we carry. The product categories are located in the left navigation section in the blue border. The browse that is displayed once a link has been clicked can be further refined by selecting sub categories from the drop down list. Clicking on any of the individual styles allows the user to view the feature details for that item. Public pricing can be seen by mousing over a color or by selecting a color from the drop down list located on the feature detail page. The Online Catalog is tied directly to the Online Ordering module and once an item has been selected a registered user can view the current packing details and current pricing by clicking on the "Login/Return to Order Online" button and logging into the ordering module.
The online catalog was modified in October to include warehouse availability in "cases" for each of the warehouses that are in stock on the item. Below the image on the browse page you will see the warehouse and the number of cases on hand. This modification resulted from requests from many of our west coast customers who wanted to know which items were located in our Los Angeles warehouse. We are planning additional modifications to show availability by color and this should be available by early 2008. Only the warehouse(s) listed have inventory.

We have added a Riley real time calculator to the quick order screen which eliminates the necessity of using a calculator to determine the unit cost. Simply click on the price hyper link on the quick order page and the unit cost will be displayed for each tier price. This includes special pricing and closeout pricing.
