ELuxury Says Farewell To Paper Catalogs

Filed under: Apparel, Green


The common wisdom used to be that in order to sell luxury products you need a thick glossy catalog with glamour shots of the merchandise on heavyweight paper. But today with the growing push toward green measures companies are finding that the beautiful catalogs can be a business liability. ELuxury.com is the latest business to ditch the catalog. They have announced they are replacing the 270,000 catalogs they send out each year with more comprehensive style look books online.

SkyMall To Offer Inflight Shopping

Filed under: Wings

If you fly then you have probably seen the SkyMall catalog, that oddly curated assemblage of items from other catalogs designed to make sure that even while in flight you can contemplate purchases. Now you can actually buy the items while in flight. SkyMall and a company called GuestLogix have partnered to deliver a new on-board shopping service. Passengers will be able to buy products inflight using a handheld electronic device from GuestLogix that can accept the swipe of a credit card or scan a barcode to complete the purchase.
