How to shop Shopping at esiliconworld.com

Step 1 : Search a product Searching at esiliconworld.com

A wide variety of products are available across different stores in esiliconworld.com. Products can be searched under a specific category and/or specific brand using the Search section (placed very conveniently in the middle of all pages at the top of the page). Links can be used as well (placed left hand side of the mall under the eMallList section) - such as Books & Magazine, Entertainment and others - to search for products under respective categories. To find items on sale at a reduced price, use the Sale Info link on the eCourtYard section of the home page (eMallFront). Find the latest product offerings on the right hand side of the home page (eMallFront) in the section called SmarteBuys.

Once you find a product of your choice, click the <more info> to get more information about that product. On click, a pop-up window opens with a bigger image and more product description. Before buying you may also like to check the <city list> of the product to ensure that the product is available for delivery to the destination where you want the product to be delivered.

Once you have been able to narrow down on the product of choice, click the respective <BUY NOW> button to add the product to your Shopping Cart (see "What's a Shopping Cart" below). As you click the <BUY NOW> button for any product, a pop-up window opens asking you to select the target destination(s) from the delivery list for that particular product. This is to ensure that there's never any mismatch between a product and the target destination(s). Select the destination city where you want the product to go if the city is there in the list. Multiple selections can be made by pressing the Ctrl key and clicking on city names.

Once destination(s) have been chosen, click the <add to cart> button to add this product to the shopping cart. As the pop-up window refreshes with confirmation message about a successful operation, it also offers you options to either go to the Shopping Cart or to continue with the shopping. Click the <continue shopping> link to go back to the product search page.

Following the same procedure described above, you can add more products to the shopping cart.


Step 2 : Buy a product Buying at esiliconworld.com

New visitors will have to register with esiliconworld.com to buy anything on the site. If not registered, the temporary shopping cart will be abandoned as it cannot be stored for any future use for lack of identification.

Once finished with adding products in the cart, the shopper goes to the cart page to complete the buying process. The cart link <My Cart> can be found placed conveniently at the top right hand side corner on all pages.

In the cart page, input the quantity of each product in the text box provided for this purpose, select products and click the <PROCEED> button at the bottom of the page to go to the Label page to address each shipment and check out the order.

In this unique transaction kernel of esiliconworld.com, multiple products can be ordered very easily to multiple recipients in different cities in a single order process. To add more recipients for the same product in the same city or different cities, just type the number of recipients in the text box provided under every product entry and select the city from the context-sensitive city list (i.e. the city list carries city names where this product is actually available so that there's no mismatch). Multiple selections can be made by pressing the Ctrl key and clicking on city names. However, the typed number entry (number of new recipients) and the number of selected cities must be the same.

To remove products from the cart select the products to be deleted with the checkboxes placed against each entry and click <delete selected>. Tip : Use the <select all> and <deselect all> buttons for easy selection. The master checkbox controls checkboxes for the individual city entries.

On clicking the <PROCEED> button in the shopping cart, the Label page opens. Here, pre-filled addresses are to be selected from a drop-down city-specific address list, gift-messages are typed (max. 150 characters) for gifting purposes - if any, a target date of delivery is indicated and the delivery mode is selected - for each shipment. Tip : Shoppers must fill up their address-books with addresses beforehand. If the address the shipment is supposed to go is not there in the addressbook yet, select "Add new address" in the drop-down.
