    For the first page -> see attached img.

    2nd page: - Check-box statement is really too complicated. Put the box on the left, leave it not-selected and add description "Add a different delivery address"

    3th page: - Give contact, billing address and delivery address more like a box look, so these sections will be easier to separate visually (i.e. delicate borders on sections) - Notes? Maybe something that tells more to the customer what is this field for?

    Anyway good luck and stick to the details! :-)

    PS watching how the leaders are doing it (amazon.com) is the best way to save money on UI/UX :)

      Hi Szymon,

      Thanks for your review, I've already implemented the progress bar arrows and relocated the remove item button.

      The checkbox I've had a nightmare with. The shopping cart which I'm using has it hardcoded through about 10 PHP loops, so I'd have to spend hours reprogramming everything, I'll try and change the wording though.

      Good idea on the boxes and notes section, I'll give it a go and see how it comes out!

      I always err on the side of caution with looking at the big ecommerce sites, I'd rather split test on my own sites than just look at what others are doing.

      Again, thanks for the review, really helpful!

      Steve

      Glad I could help! Thx for credits! :)

      One more thing: try to put a little bit more vertical white-space between the basket section and the footer, so this could be easier to scan(visually). Good luck! :)

      PS what happens when someone had made an error in billing/shipping section and he is in step no 3? What about editing basket also from step no 2?
