It was mygreat day of purchase! Social networking was customized to perform groupshopping too!On thisday, I learnt a lot of lessons and also I found solutions too for certainproblems with group shopping. A big question that was solved for me was: Can wemake group shopping as our regular practice? I mean, can we buy each and everyitem through volume discounting?  How can I bring my society into myrescue in gaining power to bargain with my local stores?  I wanted toshare my experience and solicit your thoughtful suggestions over them. Let mestart by saying the objective I had for that day: “I wanted buy a televisionset at the lowest possible price, by applying any means of bargains that arecurrently available.”I know,any sort of volume purchase may be a right choice in bringing the price down.As I wanted to buy only one television set, I required some more people to joinmy shopping. I turned to my close friend, he said, “Perhaps I also want to buya television set but not this month”. I was little upset first as I my firstattempt was shot down. But it was not a surprise for me. I cannot expecteveryone to buy when I do. I reluctantly turned towards few more other friends,close and little closer ones. My friends circle is not huge enough to give meat least one more person who wants to buy a television set at this point oftime. I didn’t like to give up ……. My next social circle will be my relatives.I called my wife and asked her to get hold of one of her cousin who was talkingabout buying a television set last month itself.Not to mysurprise, my wife hesitated and she said “Look dear! You are, sorry… we are,not good at bargains. My cousin may not feel comfortable in bargaining with usand it may cause some hitch among our relatives circle”. I know my wife underestimates my bargain skills, as she always does in any such things to me.When Ireached my office, I went to internet to search for the deals on televisionsets and seriously looked at their prices and deals. I couldn’t even completesearching a handful of website before I had realized that I had alreadyconsumed considerable amount work time. By the lunch time, I made a decision totake a half day off and go around the local shops.I wantedto mention here something. There are many volume discounting web sites. Ididn’t opt to buy through those sites as they involve credit card payments online. Moreover, I didn’t like to buy my TV without seeing it physically. Mypreference is to buy from a local store which gives me some personal touch tomy shopping.When Istarted out I knew I cannot cover a lot many shops. I just noted down theaddresses of few of them. I went around the shopping areas and I finished mywindow shopping and collected the details about the television sets and pricesfor them. I got to agree that I didn’t have enough time to visit couple of moreshops that were in my wish list. But I had already exhausted all my bodyenergy. Although physically tired my mind was still enthusiastic and energeticin pursuing my way. I said to myself, I had to make at least one more round tofinish my window shopping another day. Even after all these efforts I was nothappy and I was indecisive about a deal I should be confirming to.When Ireached home my wife was having happiness on her face as if I have alreadybrought the television to home. When I got out t to explain my efforts andresulting tiredness she said she called her cousin and convinced him to joinour shopping. I was double-happy that I have a group-shopping partner now. Isaw her cousin waiting at my home.With hercousin I went to the city center again and started searching for a good deal. Irealized some increase in my confidence and my bargain tone has also becomestronger. Before even enjoying my bargain power, I realized something else too.My hesitations, while asking the prices! I am missing something - the freenessin exercising my bargain skills! My wife was peeping into my mind constantlycautioning me about my bargain skills. I kept on mounting a smile on my faceand looked at my shopping-partner each time I talked on the price to the salesperson. I was not comfortable in freely bargaining as I was not sure how mypartner will take my bargain capability.For somereasons we couldn’t buy the television that day and we both returned back home.I sat down and tried to assimilate all the events that happened since morning.Questions started appearing to me. What if one could avoid all the hurdles informing a group for buying any item at any point of time! This is the first ofmy requirement in group-shopping. Well, what if I find a group? – then, I wantto freely exercise my wisdom in bargains.In mysearch for answers I founded a web platform, doing all these magic. It worksexactly the way I wished. I would bet, this is first of its own kind -Innovativeness in solving some peculiar shopping problems. Though it has itsown downsides, at least it relieves some hurdles in group-shopping. The bigplus point comes when the website allows the people to bargain for themselvesbut in an impersonalized way.  I mean, I do not like to put a fake smileon my face to my friends when I bargain for a group.I justwant a group of people buying the same item. I should not be spending any timesearching for my group. More importantly, the wait time to find such groupsshould not be too long. I do not like to even know who I am with in a groupbecause I don’t like to wear a fake smile in convincing about my bargaincapabilities.I wantedto pool up the collective skills of such enthusiastic bargainers- even the calmbut potential ones too. The web platform should offer equal opportunity to themembers of the groups in bargaining and submitting their quotes without anyone’s intervention.Here is myweb platform.
