Reviewing shopping sites: a new era unveiled
You know how sometimes you read reviews on shopping sites and you can’t for the life of you imagine what the site actually does or looks like, until you type the URL and get in to check it out for yourself?
Well, yesterday, I discovered something new: video reviews of shopping sites. Stemming from the all-new online video portal Playthat.TV, the Webshopping section caters specifically to VIDEO reviews of the hippest and hottest online shopping stores in Malaysia. Granted it is NEW, there are only 2 video review episodes now, but the reviews are done in a very straightforward manner and will give us a glimpse on what the website holds.
Each video lasts not more than 10 minutes, where the presenter candidly gives her personal opinion on the site she is reviewing and shares her choices of her personal favorite items on the site. There is also a brief run-through on how to order and pay.
It would be good if the review actually showed the process of purchasing and receiving the product, but I find that despite that, the video is enough to draw some interest to the viewer to visit the site concerned.
So if you are the sort that is too lazy to read reviews (too many words), this sort of video reviews would definitely suit you! Enjoy watching! And of course, happy shopping!
