ShangBy Expands Into Cashmere
ShangBy.com, an online retailer that takes consumers into the far away shops of Shanghai to find unique and customizable jewelry, is expanding into the Shanghai cashmere and pashmina market. ShangBy.com now brings users live via video feed on the Internet into Woo Scarf and Shawl, an established cashmere retailer in Shanghai that is famous with foreign travelers, allowing shoppers to work directly with designers for custom embroidery and negotiate for great prices on these high-end scarves, blankets and shawls. ShangBy customers experience another element of Shanghai shopping from the comforts of home.
This expansion builds on the overwhelming success of ShangBy.com’s jewelry offering. Shanghai is known for its quality pearls and semiprecious stones and Steve Bell, ShangBy.com founder and CEO, plans to expand ShangBy.com into additional markets in Shanghai with different types of goods and around the globe in markets like Thailand, India, Morocco, Turkey and Argentina.
“There are unique markets and cultures around the world that the average American shopper never gets to be a part of,” said Bell. “ShangBy.com is utilizing live webcast to make online shopping an experience, rather than a chore. Technology is shrinking the globe and ShangBy.com is all about exposing cultures and making connections for people.”
ShangBy.com gives people two ways to shop: 1) visit www.shangby.com and dial into the Shop Live toll-free phone line (1-877-PEARL51) Sunday through Thursday starting at 9 p.m. CDT to shop live in a Shanghai store with hosts Nina Johansson or Claire Bartels or, 2) browse the site 24/7 to buy one of the 1000+ items that other shoppers have already negotiated through live shopping. Every purchase is 100 percent guaranteed forever.
