Hi, 1. The problem with your products not being spidered is because you use javascript to open them. Your links need to be within <a ..> tags within the page, not JavaScript.
2. You might want to look into Apache URL rewriting for your product browsing. Currently only the Query String differentiates your pages. This is a no no for good SEO http://www.theuniquepear.com/unique/viewThumbProducts.do?type=category&s earchString=Wall%20Decor&categoryID=2&pageNumber=1 Using URL rewriting you could alter this to http://www.theuniquepear.com/unique/category/Wall%20Decor/2/1 3. In terms of your other pages they all look the same to Google because you do not use the <meta name="description" tag. Google uses this. Your titles could do with being more varied too. 4. The site is very slow when I request the main domain, Google is also probably giving up .. I notice using a Google site: search that Google has indexed your home page and the error page! This is indicative. 5. Ensure your site is XHTML validated using validator.w3c.org Fix all that and you might find better indexing.

One interesting thing is that the line: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd";> is repeated inside the <head> block. Probably not a big deal.
