Project Title:
CountSpin - Online Shopping
Attachment:
none
Completed:
01/07/2008
Category:
Web Development > Web Design
URL:
http://www.countspin.com
Description:
CountSpin is an online shopping show where products are sold through a dutch auction process. The show is hosted through a web enabled application and is made up of programs operating on a weekly schedule. Each program is based on a theme. The programs feature products that are relevant to that theme. The products are sold through a dutch auction process that is differentiated in that the available quantity remains hidden and the limit to which the price can fall is unknown. Price is shown as falling constantly till either the available quantity is sold out or the lowest average price is reached. Buyers can play with the risk of either entering the deal at a price point that they later discover would have fallen much further, or wait to enter and possibly lose the opportunity due to a stock-out.
