In the olden days, when one needed a tractor or any industrial implement for that matter, a visit to the nearest machinery shop or hardware store was necessary.  You then had to deal with some legwork, pushy salesmen, and the prospect of hauling your purchase back to the office by yourself.

Thank goodness for technology.

In the Philippines, a local website is taking the ‘virtual shopping’ experience to the next level, by offering goods ranging from heavy machinery to little office tools. According to technology website Techie.com (www.techie.com.ph) , a website called RedPages.ph now enables users to browse, choose, and purchase industrial merchandise from the comfort of their office chairs. Think of it as e-Bay, but with tractors and motor pumps in the inventory.

Users can now type in queries for specific products, and the website will then supply appropriate listings that correspond to the request. RedPages’ product catalogue offers an extensive inventory of supplies sourced from reputable local and foreign manufacturers.

So the next time you want to buy needed equipment for your business or personal use, an internet connection and a ready budget is all you need to make a purchase.
