Jacky's offers best deals on makook.com

Dubai, UAE
Online auctions are a rage in the West with websites like e-Bay.com operating successfully despite the recent downturn in technology sector stocks.

With this alliance, Jackys.com, the Internet offshoot of Jacky's Electronics LLC, a leading retailer and distributor of electronic products will offer its best deals on makook's 'Center stage' listing. Online buyers can bid on makook for Jacky's products including digital cameras, DVD players, video cameras and handheld computers. Once the bid price crosses the low reserve price set by Jacky's, the product will be sold to the highest bidder.

"We are constantly updating our facilities and adapting to the changing market trends. We are already offering auction-type services for our business clients on Tejari.com and now we are targeting individual consumers through makook.com," stated Ashish Panjabi, general manager, Jacky's Electronics LLC. "Our association with makook, further strengthens our strategy of embracing technology to serve customers better and reap business benefits," noted Panjabi.

makook, winners of the e-biz challenge from Dubai Internet City, is modeled on the US auction giant, e-Bay. It is one of the first companies to be incubated out of Dubai Ideas Oasis and aims to build a dynamic online marketplace and the first forum encompassing B2B, B2C and C2C e-commerce.

"Our association with Jacky's will ensure a constant availability of quality electronic and IT products for auction on makook," stated Khalid Al-Tayer, CEO and co-founder of makook.

makook's popularity as a user friendly, inexpensive sales channel is soaring since its soft launch in June 2001. People looking for bargain deals, specific items or rare collectors' pieces can log on to makook from the comfort of their home without the need to search far and wide, while sellers benefit from the growing number of consumers and businesses buying online.
