wired/wireless Grove-controlled 220V outlets
A simple, wired outlet is something I find myself making all the time (left side of photo), but I'd rather buy something smaller/safer/nicer than keep making them :)
The [more expensive] wireless product can have the same functionality of a "normal" rf (or ir) controlled outlet, but the remote control would also have a grove socket. If it's necessary to have 2 buttons/pins in order to control such a device (like the a/b buttons in the photo), you can use both yellow and white lines (unorthodox for non-I2C grove modules, but I don't see any reason why not).

Allow repeat order without the need to upload the gerber files again
If you repeat an order it should not be necessary to upload the Gerber files again. Most other PCB manufacturers do this.

MY SHOPPING CART - USD specified
The $ ... which one of these : USD, CAD, AUD, NZD, SGD ? ? I guess it's USD, but even at 99.9% "it should be USD", it's still a guess... I suggest adding "USD" written somewhere in "MY SHOPPING CART" screen. Thanks.

Seeed Studio rocks!
Yes, that's true. I've used tons of electronic shopping websites over the years, no doubt Seeed is doing a great work. I'm loving all the new products released so far. Great work guys, please keep it up!

Facilitate upgrades by opening a second hand trading section
We´re trying to find a Jetson Agx Xavier Developer Kit 32GB for an internal R&D project in Madrid, Spain but I can´t find any available anywhere, and we can´t afford more expensive options.
I imagine more people will be in our same situation.
At the same time, probably other people need to upgrade to more powerful systems and could benefit from a discount trading in their used units, that you could revise and resell second hand?
That way everybody wins!8 votes -
Add 4x20 Grove LCD
The 2x16 Grove LCD is terrific, especially with the backlight color changes. Bring out a 4x20 version.
By the way, what are the hidden I2C addresses on this device? They should be documented so multiple devices can be used.

Website Naviagtion
I really like the products that you have on your site. I like it that Radio Shack also carries them. I found your site hard to navigate and find what i am looking for easily or even just to browse like an online store. On the other hand your competitors like SparkFun Pololu are really easy to navigate. I often find my self just browsing things on there store for hours. With this site i just don't feel like it give the feel to stay and "shop". I come in like i do when I go to radio shack retail…

I'm having communication problems
Very hard to do business with you. I'm having communication problems. I can not find contacts for communication. I do not have time. I can not spend time with you. I am in a hurry.
I canceled my order and cancel the payment.

Better inventory management needed
Most products that I would to order are out of stock! :( Water pump, relay, flow sensor, etc. There should be an option for back-order or notification to customer when the product is back in stock.

make larger flex circuits! PCB's go up to 30cm, flex circuits should too :)
seeed flex circuits are very reasonably priced, however they don't go large enough to make a real wire harness replacement in any decent size project. Would love to see the flex circuits get the same size options as the rigid PCB's :)

Adds some opto-isolators to the OPL
There aren't currently any opto-isolators in the OPL? This seems like a big gap in it's functionality. Something like the 4N35 or the TLP291-4

Get rid of Fusion PCB service
My experience with your fusion service has been appaling to say the least. I have ordered PCB fabrication and assembly from all over the world. Here in USA, where I am located, I get constant updates and can communicate with the PCB vendor. Just for your information, I have ordered from, Ireland, Romania , Canada to name a few. All of these places provide some communication on the process.
In Seeds case, not only was I unable to communicate with the PCB fab, but they issues a "shipped" notice and refused to answer my repeated emails on why I could…

"Service and Gifts" -> "Service" and "Gifts"
Please split the category of your shop's website for "Service and Gifts" into two categories "Service" and "Gifts". These categories have nothing to do with each other, and it makes getting to Fusion services a little more difficult.
I'm guessing that new people to the site and going to have trouble finding the PCB service ("Fusion") if they don't know that it's called "Fusion" and would not think to look in a "Gifts" category...
thanks
