There are two methods for searching for products on the Komet E-commerce:
Search Bar:
Enter specific keywords to find products by:
Name: (e.g., Gerbera Blue Iris)
Details: Refine results by length (e.g., 20cm stems), color (e.g., red), or box type (e.g., if is Half Box, type HB).
Category: Search for broader categories (e.g., Lilies).
Sidebar Filters:
Narrow your search using filters as:
Category: Filter by flower type (e.g., Agapanthus, Roses).
Color: Find products in specific colors (e.g., Red, Yellow, White).
Vendor and Inventory Type (if available): Filter by specific companies selling the product.

Combine these methods for the most efficient product search by using the search bar first and then the Sidebar filters. |
Buy Products in Units or Bunches
To add products in bunches to your shopping cart, click on the Bunches tab in the products section and follow the instructions in the Create an E-commerce order section.
| Info |
|---|
Unable to purchase by unit? Your vendor might not have enabled "Sell by the Bunch" yet. To buy units, contact your vendor and ask them to activate this feature. |
Expired Lines
Some of your chosen items may become unavailable if the store's cut-off for your selected shipping date has passed so that the lines will show a clock. The system still shows the item lines for reference, but won't be added to your cart unless you pick a later shipping date.
| Info |
|---|
The check box option only appears at the top right of the table if you have expired items in your selection. |
Review the Order in your Currency
Products are listed in the company currency, but as you add them to your shopping cart, the price will automatically update to reflect your own local currency. The system currently works with Euro (EUR), United States Dollar (USD), Chinese Yuan (CNY), and South African Rand (ZAR).
You can see the conversion by clicking on your shopping cart. Remember to review your final order before checkout!

TimerTime to Checkout
A timer next to the Order Total and the Shopping Cart shows how long these items are reserved for your purchase. This ensures no one else can buy them while you complete your checkout.
The timer starts when you add your first item and resets if you clear your shopping cart.
The countdown might change based on when the products stop processing for the day (cut-off times), the date you choose for them to be shipped (Shipping Date), and the Carrier you pick.
