According to data from IDEX Online Research, online jewelry sales in the United States for 2007 were around $4.8 billion or 7.4% of total sales. In 2006, this figure was around $4 billion or 6.4%. All commerce sales online in 2007 totaled close to $136.4 billion in 2007, which was a 19% increase over the sales recorded in 2006.
Is this just a trend or is there a good reason why more people are searching online to buy their jewelry including watches? Many are still avoiding purchasing their jewelry online due to the worry of scams or the pure safety of the online website itself. However, with the numbers listed above, everyone should realize that shopping online for all kinds of consumer goods is rising and if they were that many cases of identity theft or other harmful problems arising from shopping online, the numbers would be decreasing instead of increasing.
Why are more people beginning to shop online for their watches and jewelry?
1. Online shops have more to offer than a small retail jeweler. The reason this is true is that many online shops do not have an inventory. They actually have the products drop shipped to their customers straight from the manufacturers or wholesalers. In some cases, they do have a shop offline as well and then they do have a location for all the products they sell to be stored until they are needed.
2. The online shops offer better prices. Once again, the online shops do not have the overhead of the jewelry shops in the mall. Many do not have to pay huge prices for rent, pay employees, or extra utility bills.
3. No fighting traffic. Instead of shopping at the mall when you are not at work (like everyone else), you can avoid all the traffic and of course not worry about the weather. There could be six feet of snow on the ground and you could conveniently shop at an online watch shop.
4. No closing time. The great thing about shopping online is that the online shops never close. You can browse, choose the watches you desire, and pay online at any time of the day or night. Along with this, you do not have to get dressed. You will not have to hassle with salespersons at all.
The majority of watch shops online offer a secure shopping cart as well as quality customer service and a money back guarantee if you are not fully satisfied with your purchase.
Today, you can shop for your favorite watches without leaving home and rest assured you will be able to find all the same styles and name brands that you can find at the jewelers on the corner. In addition, you will find the same exact watch for a huge discount.
