Each item description in the shopping cart needs to remind the shopper what it is. Provide the following information:
The name of the item to be purchased and a link to a detailed description
A short description of the item, such as “book,” “CD,” or “software”
The size, color, and other details as appropriate
The availability and delivery time frame of the item (especially important during the holiday season)
The price of each item
The quantity to be purchased and a way to modify the quantity
A way to remove the item from the shopping cart by clicking on a remove button or by unchecking a check box (you might ask people to set the quantity to zero, but not everyone notices these instructions)
