thanks
Okay, so you are wanting to keep both sites active, but with different products. I thought the multi-site plugin would allow you to maintain two sets of products, all controlled from a single admin login but controlling multiple different sitesm. So, the issue your customers will have ifu simply clone off the tables is that when it comes timme to or they happen to change their password in one store, the others won't follow. Also things like their addresses (personal and favorite) etc... All of that will be behind in one store or another.
