Suppliers have the ability to post products as they produce or stock them, see what quantity remains at any given time, modify prices at any time, and edit and copy items easily.

Purchasers can easily search for and add items to their virtual shopping cart and place the order. The shopping cart is linked to your login, so you can switch computers in the middle of a shopping session and your cart will be just as you had left it. This also makes your cart impervious to power outages and other annoyances.

Suppliers are notified when purchases are made and the supplier then contacts the purchaser to arrange payment and delivery. ItsGreenerHere.com does not collect payment from purchasers. It is the supplier's responsibility to make contact with the purchaser in a timely manner and collect payment.
