Objective: Autographstore.com is the ultimate destination for authentic celebrity autographed collectibles and signed memorabilia. Autographstore.com is one of the most recognized names in the collectibles and autographed memorabilia industry.

Celebrity autographed collectibles and signed memorabilia are auctioned on the website using a PHP/MySQL based application that was customized by X-Wire.

X-Wire has provided the following modules for AutoGraphStore.com:

Invoice System
X-Wire designed and developed a custom Invoicing system that allows all high bidders' items to be combined together and includes an area where they can add and adjust the shipping costs based on domestic and international shipping fees, and combines all winnings from customers. This invoicing system was done just like the eBay invoicing system and was linked up with Pay Pal payment gateway.

The invoice system was semi-automatic, meaning that automatically the system groups all winning bidders' items together and then the Administrator can add the correct shipping fee and click on a button that will automatically send the winning bidder all of the necessary information by email about the items that they had won. The email shows the price for each item, the sub-total, the shipping charges, the total, as well as payment instructions, and provides a link in each email that will bring the customer to Pay Pal to enable them to pay Autograph Store using their paypal account.

MOD Re-Writes
The individual URLs that the site originally showed for an auction item was https://www.autographstore.com/auction/browse.PHP?id=65502

In a mod-rewrite we changed the URL to read as http://www.autographstore.com/auction/female-celebrtiy-autograph.htm but still pointed it to the same browse.PHP?id=65502 internally. The purpose of this was to optimize the website and to make it search engine friendly.
