Social Shopping

admin — Sat, 07 Apr 2012 02:22:14 +0000

Internet has definitely changed the shopping paradigm – it not only brought price transparency (allowing easy comparison of similar items across multitude of retailers) but also gave us infinite choices making it difficult to decide what to really buy and how to find the right stuff. Social shopping helps in this regard by harnessing the likes / dislikes of like-minded consumers like you so that you can leverage the knowledge of the crowd in filtering stuff. There are 2 aspects of social shopping. First, are the plethora of shopping deal websites such as SlickDeals which focus on highlighting shorter duration promotion or markdowns and play in the value segment of the market. The other one are websites such as Flip2Shop which using the same knowledge of the crowd to help identify the finest and grandest products available on the web. This second group focuses on prices and products that have a longer shelf-life as well as tend to be more pricier than the former geared towards quality conscious consumers.
