Abstract
Items, such as produce items, may be placed in containers, imaged, weighed, and stored for subsequent retrieval. Images that depict the items and attributes associated with the items may be presented to customers via an interface. Upon receiving an indication that a customer has purchased one or more items via the interface, a container that includes the one or more items is retrieved. The one or more items are removed from the container and packaged for delivery to the customer. The resulting empty container is refilled with new items, which are then imaged, weighed, and stored.
