Popup of who ordered what!

When I order something it should be PRIVATE!

Don't show POPUP's of WHO ordered what and for how much. It's crazy and a violation of our privacy. I'm sure NONE of those exposed people have given you permission to use their identity to do add's like that.

Don't get too greedy in hunt of selling more. It may backfire on you!

I'm sorry to hear you feel like those small notifications are an invasion of your privacy.
We only mentioned the first name and origin country of the order. No last name, order number, address, or anything of that nature.

Based on your feedback we've made some changes to the system.

I of course know that exposing sales on the website is a trick to boost more sales, but honestly you should be careful with popups. They are in general highly annoying because they take away focus from what you are currently reading. That alone should make you take them away completely.

If you really want to expose how your sale are doing then make a separate page for that. "Sales today" or whatever you want to call it. Do that and free us from annoying popups.

Violation of privacy, dude, seriously ?!..
Only a firstname and a country was mentioned for about three seconds ...

Really dont see the problem here. Its not sensitive data.

It may not be sensitive data, but what is it actually for? It's just there to show how much people are spending on an order, presumably to influence you to spend more.

Can't blame a business to try to make business...
