New MyCalamel Function Introduced for Calamel
Tokyo – April 9, 2007 – Paperboy&co. today launches MyCalamel, a new registration function for the shopping portal site Calamel. Users can now register favorite products, view purchase history and save delivery details.
The Calamel shopping portal site established by paperboy&co. on April 6, 2006, introduced new ways to search an online shopping mall such as Search by Color and Search by Map. Many one-of-a-kind and rare items like, handmade goods, company merchandise and limited edition products that aren’t available from other sites can be purchased on Calamel.
As we celebrate the one year anniversary of the Calamel service we introduce MyCalamel where users can register their delivery details, save product clippings and generally have a more enjoyable shopping experience. MyCalamel is available using the paperboy&co. common ID, JugemKey. Those who have already registered a JugemKey can begin using MyCalamel immediately.
Publish Product Information Clippings
MyCalamel makes it possible for the user to view their Calamel purchase history and to register their favorite products and stores. The user can enter comments or recommendations in their Favorites and those comments can also be used as memos while shopping around or for product reviews after the purchase has been made.
The user can decide whether each of the items in their Favorites is to be made public so the function can be used for both personal memos and to introduce the products they have selected on a blog or public website. A list of users that have registered a product in their Favorites and designated that item as public appears on the page describing that product.
Registration of Favorites is not limited just to Calamel stores and products; products found in other online stores can also be registered. MyCalamel is a product search and comparison tool that covers every store on the web. Users can also check Favorite Rankings and New Favorites to find out what kind of products are popular right now.
Users Set the Price they want to Pay
Under Favorites the user can register the product name, a comment, rating and the price they would like to pay. The average price that users are willing to pay is displayed on the information page for each product. Users interested in purchasing the same product can share this information and use it when making to make their decisions.
Easy Purchase Settings for Faster Purchase Processing
Up until now it has been necessary to enter delivery details at each store every time a purchase is made. However when users take advantage of the MyCalamel Easy Purchase Settings, they no longer need to reenter those details when making a purchase from a Calamel online store. The user's name, address and telephone number is registered in MyCalamel. The user simply enters their user ID and password and delivery details are automatically displayed.
