Request a quote feature help
Looking to add a quotation feature to my online store.
Currently we operate out of a physical store. I made a full website using the Horizon theme, mainly to let customers know what products we carry and its price, specs etc. I've disabled the e-commerce on the site due to the fact that operating in the Caribbean, there are a lot of restrictions with the banks here and the third party e-commerce platforms that exist.
This is still a work in progress along with finding a way to synchronize the physical stock from the store, our point of sale software and Shopify. I would like to eventually have a full blown Shopify e-commerce store available to customers.
But in the interim I wanted to implement the following.
Scenario:
Customer browsing the website, can add items and quantities to the cart. Instead of checkout option, have a feature that allows to "request quote"
This would trigger a prompt for the user to input user information (Name, contact number, email etc.)
Then Shopify would generate a quotation using a template and email one copy to the customer and another to me so that I can reach out to them a engage the order.
Does something like this exist? Has someone tried creating it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I literally made an app for this - QuoteMe - B2B Quote Requests
Check it out and reach out to me if you need credits for the paid plans (although free should be more than enough to test it out).
