I love online shopping, so it’s not a weird habit to peep into lots and lots of Malaysia online shops available in both Malaysia Online Shopping Directory and MBP The MarketPlace. And, also shops listed in other shopping directories.
I will make a random review on online shops listed with priority given to those in both MOSD and The MarketPlace. This random review meant I found the online shop interesting to share with you (eventhough I never buy anything *yet* from the store).
Okay.. my random review number #1 is on Mari Kelih Store. Here, you can find many choices of kain ela, sutera batik, tudung and muslimah apparel all in one store.
Yup!! Even clothes in yardage (kain ela) is going online!! If looking at the recent trend of Malaysia buying pattern, more people opted for buying things online for the very obvious reason – convenience! ![]()
Mari Kelih Store is own by a mommy blogger, Zaila from Shah Alam, Selangor. This online shop is a non-shopping cart store which operated on Blogspot.com. You can place an order using the form available or email her directly.
If you have a lazy bum like me to go to Jalan TAR or Kamdar or any offline shops, just hop on to Mari Kelih Store. Perhaps, you will find something that you like there.
Most of the items like kain ela and tudung awning are sourced directly from Kelantan. This Malaysia online shop also sell hanger for tudung and brooches.
The prices of products range from RM15 to RM50 each (as per information provided on the blog shop). I think the items are reasonably price which explained that most items are sold fast.
So, if you have something that you really like, so buy it as soon as you can… or it will gone…ha..ha..ha ![]()
Here are some sample picture of the products on Mari Kelih Store that I caught my cybershopaholic eyes.
Tudung Awning in Red
Hanger for tudung
*brilliant product! help you organise your tudung easily ![]()
Mari Kelih Store’s sales is based on First Come First Serve basis. Like any other online shop, payment to Mari Kelih Store must be made in full before item is delivered.
However, it also accept installment on certain item. Mari Kelih Store also sell on wholesale. This is great if you would like to buy cheaper items and sell it later.
You need to contact Zaila and check with her on these. Her contact number (email and handphone) is available on the right siderbar.
Mari Kelih Store also participate in bazzars around Kuala Lumpur. The current one is on 27th and 28th March 2010 at GT Bazaar PWTC. Details available here.
Suggestions to Make Online Shop More Interesting
Header
I suggest the owner to create a new header (or get someone to design it for you). The header is the first thing that potential buyer sees when she comes to your online shop. So, it’s very important to make it outstanding, interesting and unique. ![]()
Mari Kelih Store’s header should clearly show EACH the major items that is sold to attract potential buyers and open their willingness to explore and BUY. Take some really sharp and clear pictures of your products and use that for the headers.
Background
Mari Kelih Store uses WHITE as the content background which is GOOD! Keep on using black text on white background. Do avoid using multi-colored wordings as much as possible. ![]()
You don’t want a potential buyer’s attention get distracted to look at other things except your products.
Picture of Products
Do take sharp and crispy clear pictures of your products. Images of products are very important for an online store. Because online shop don’t have the benefit of talking face-to-face with potential customer.
So, the online way to pre-sell your products is through GREAT pictures of products.
Label/Category of Products.
It’s a good idea to move the location of the Labels or Categories to the top of the sidebar. This will make it easy for potential customer to browse through your online shop.
