Together with the great team of Sofinco, we are at Stonfield InWorld most passionate about RIL Shopping and its opportunities to become an exceptional channel for selling high quality goods against considerable discount. Even to just imagine the chances that this brand new sales-channel has, using the Virtual Universe of Second Life, gives us the shivers by excitement. This channel is marvelously well suited for sales of complex products but also for sales with a very specific emotional perception.

After some promising earlier sales, improving one after another, we decided that the process is ready for its next big step in the long course to go, as it is now already stable enough to move up a gear. For this reason we launched a major sponsorship, with a few key gifts that we hope to be attractive and “in spirit” of the service.

Now it is time to take a next step and face a larger challenge: we are going to sell cars!

This Friday, November 28, starting at 17:00, RIL Shopping will organize a sale of cars by SAAB in Second Life.

Again, just like the sales that have passed until today, the sale at RIL shopping in Second Life is considered to be a sale online, but in contrast to ordinary webshops, it gives the seller and buyer the warm experience of the social aspects of shopping that was until now exclusively reservated for shops in physical life. A real person is there to advise you, guide you in your choices and accompany you throughout the process.

However, we are well aware that a car is probably one of the most improbable products that one could buy in a virtual world like Second Life. For this reason and with the complicity of Jean-Pierre Pla and the whole team of SAAB Signatures in Toulouse, we have decided to offer this high quality SAAB against a totally incredible price, with discounts on new or used cars, ranging from €1.300,- to €10.000,-! Yes, you read it well this is no typing error

To participate, all one has to do, is simply create a free account on RIL Shopping (if you haven’t done that yet) and come to RIL Shopping in Second Life at 17:00 (CET).

Prices can be accessed at this sale and only on the RIL Shopping in Second Life and quantities are - of course - very limited, so it will not ongoing!

Needless to say that this sale will be carried out by SAAB Signatures, official representative of the brand in Toulouse. The payment will not be mandatory and online buyers have all the services and guarantees as a regular and usual rule in this type of purchase.

In these hard times on the economic front, we are very pleased to offer, in partnership with Sofinco and of course, SAAB Toulouse, such an exceptional opportunity as to achieve a special transaction, but also to write history by becoming the the first persons in the world to have bought and sold a real car in Second Life

Thank you very much to Jean-Pierre Pla and his team for having agreed to join and play the game with as much enthusiasm!
