Just came across this interesting stone. Seems like Amber as a precious stone is slowly gaining some attention. I guess it might be related to this site selling Amber jewelry in quite an innovative way over in sunny Singapore. Go see – www.realamber.sg.
All I know about Amber so far was learnt from Jurassic Park! But I guess I am no fashion guru, so whatever I say, please forgive me! But actually, what interest me is not the stone, but the very innovative marketing that is being done over at www.realamber.sg
You see, they practise what is effectively, a Reverse Bidding System! You know, when you have an auction, you bid for the item you want, and the fella with the highest bid gets the prize? Well, on this site, you simply look at the item, find out what the listed price is, and then bid a price which you are willing to pay for it. Isn’t that cool? So, let’s say you saw a cool Amber Necklace, and it showed US$94 as the listed price. Now, if you think that you would be willing to pay only US$85, then place that as your bid. If the store feels that the price is reasonable, it accepts and you got the piece!
Now, don’t you think that is just a really neat system?
