In th...I was an early adapter to online shopping. <br /><br />In the year 2000, when most people were afraid to shop online, I bought a 36" Sony TV and had it delivered to my home.<br /><br />All of my significant purchases were researched online, most consistently using Google Product Search/Google Shopping.<br /><br />With a household income in excess of $400,000 per year, I have made many significant purchases online, including a 55" Sony HDTV, dozens of computers, monitors, laptops, a laser printer, All-Clad cookware, Kitchen Aid Trash Compactor, Mephisto Shoes, solar lighting, designer chandeliers, fashion bedding, air purifiers and many other high-ticket items, as well as everyday household items. I even order dog food, office supplies, detergents, food products and K-Cup coffees online. And I prefer to do all of my holiday shopping online.<br /> <br />I don't ever recall wishing Google Product Search would lead me to <b>fashions!</b><br /><br />A fashion showcase is the <b>wrong use</b> of Google Product Search!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3181727051437183424.post-88896650539891843102011-09-27T06:11:25.509-04:002011-09-27T06:11:25.509-04:00One additional comment - there's a HUGE assump...One additional comment - there's a HUGE assumption being made here that people using PRODUCT SEARCH are there to shop for clothes. <br /><br />I am not interested in 9-5 fashions (or pointy shoes!!!) 99% of the time that I make use of Google Product Search, it is NOT to look at fashions.<br /><br />This site would have been much more useful as a separate Google link, as it was before with Boutique.com Then, at least you would have targeted the right audience!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3181727051437183424.post-47039857156803562992011-09-27T05:55:50.119-04:002011-09-27T05:55:50.119-04:00As a frequent user of Google Shopping for many yea...As a frequent user of Google Shopping for many years, I absolutely hate the re-design. The beauty of Google has always been in its simplicity and ease of use. Now, I am greeted with obtrusive screen size ads every time I simply want to do a product search. <br /><br />A person who uses Google Shopping generally already has a purpose when they arrive there - and doesn't need to be blasted with such giant ads!!! The sidebar ads were helpful and tolerable. THIS is pure corporate advertising greed!<br /><br />I hate the redesign so much that I have switched to Google Advanced Product Search just to avoid it. I plan to never view your product search home page again!<br /><br />Beautiful is one thing - but USEFUL, it is not!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3181727051437183424.post-60258488527057386442011-09-23T09:24:34.826-04:002011-09-23T09:24:34.826-04:00Great website!
