Monster Shop is an online shopping site through which users can buy, sell, and review items. One can interact with Monster Shop as a visitor, user, merchant, or admin. Visitors are afforded basic access while registered users can access greater functionality. Special types of users such as merchants and admins have greater privileges than regular users and have greater control over orders. Monster Shop allows users to register and login using a secure password and provides statistics regarding previous customers' purchases.
