That site is sort of like an old fashioned country store. They are
still lacking food and clothing, but perhaps that comes next :-) . Or
perhaps adding web design makes up for that lack and brings the
concept up to date :-) . The business reminds me a bit of the Vermont
Country Store in the US, which has been around for ages, but they now
also have a web site. Retailers are selling some unusual items on the
web these days. One huge national chain discount store in the US has
now added coffins to their web site. I wonder how many they sell.
