a friend of mine owns a very popular psych/stoner label

until 3 days ago the website was a bunch of static pages, updated by the "webmaster", no shopping cart, no search, no contact form, just the email on the website

he and his employers have been living out of selling records and band merchandising for more than a decade, before he even created a real company

wanna buy a record? press a button that sends you to the paypal cart

wanna pre order? there is a preorder product on paypal, were you can put your shipping address and when it's ready, it'll be shipped to you

he's been selling in Europe and overseas in the US since the day he started

Now it got to the point where he needed to put different currencies for different regions, taxes, tariffs (UK, USA) so he built a new website that (automatically I guess) show the prices in the local currencies and stuff like that

p.s. still no contact form :)
