Hi,
In your website, on the shopping cart page, you said have hided the "Register and Checkout" and "Login" element on purpose.
But right now, once an ordinary customer opens the shopping cart page. This is what they are seeing:

So, i would suggest you to open "Flexible VM2 Template" plugin and disable this option:

So this what the visitor will do these;
1- Find the product, add it to cart
2- On the cart page,
choose "shipping method", choose "payment method"
3- Click "Checkout" button
4- Since the user is still anonymous, the Virtuemart will bring up the registration form, so the user will register
This would be much better and user-friendly for you. Because right now, your website doesn't show the shipping methods, and asking shoppers to register first. But there is no button/place to register.
Please do what i say. Then i will re-run the test. Because right now, there is no logical reason why the selected shipping methods and payment methods won't get SAVED.
