I agree with Velocio that Shopify is great. But @Señor_Bear is right too. If your main product is essentially a set deposit and then a variable final amount then the transaction fee that Shopify take will be a margin killer. Shopify overkill unless you start selling 20 other SKUs as well.
I’d recommend using https://craftcms.com/ or something similar and a simple payments/order form with https://stripe.com/gb
Bank transfers set up a barrier and will cause a lot queries that won't convert to actual orders.
Stripe take 1.4% of your transaction (plus 20p). Whatever Shopify tier you choose Shopify take more % as well as a monthly fee.

So for a change of tempo. Does anyone have any experience with shopify as a sales platform? Coming at this more from an end user idiot vendor (me) than a site development or design point of view. Is that what you use for LFGSS @Velocio?
