Price TV on PriceMinister.com, Will the UK Site Follow?

Innovative buying and selling community site PriceMinister.com has introduced Price TV, a service that allows sellers to create and upload their own video “infomercials” (a sort of mini commercial advert) which shows or demonstrates the product they have for sale.

This added dimension of video and sound gives a seller considerable advantages over the competition, especially where a buyer has the choice of several similar or identical products. Video can be used to highlight the condition of used items or features that are often difficult to describe effectively using only words and still images.

Unlike eBay, where videos need to be uploaded to separate video hosting sites, PriceMinister provides direct upload facilities that make integration with the listing quicker and simpler.

Not everyone will wish to make use of this service, but for the increasing number of people who have video cameras or even video recording on their mobile phones, Price TV offers a novel way to give more information to buyers and to differentiate themselves from the competition.

For buyers, the opportunity to see the product they are interested in being demonstrated in a video gives added assurance that they are making the best choice.

We look forward to the Price TV service being introduced on the PriceMinister UK site soon, but meantime here’s snapshot of some of the videos on the French site.
