Lelong.my E-Commerce Fair 2011 @ Mid Valley Exhibition Centre

Lelong.my organized the first and the largest E-Commerce Fair in Malaysia @ Mid Valley Exhibition Centre last few weekends. Well, I went to check out what are the new stuff they are selling and I do figured out some new stuffs that are interesting~!

Lelong.My E-Commerce Fair (ECFair)
12 – 14th August 2011
11am – 9pm
Mid Valley Exhibition Centre (MVEC) – Hall 1 & 2

Arrived at the right time where the launching and press conference of Lelong.my E-Commerce Fair just begin.

Richard Tan, managing Director of Lelong.my & Superbuy.my

"With an Internet population of 16.9 million, Malaysia is still in the early stages of e-commerce. This presents a huge and growing opportunity for those who take the step to be involved.

We hope this 3-day event, will provide a platform for online entrepreneurs to promote their websites and market their products normally sold online. It also gives an opportunity for the Lelong community of sellers and buyers to meet each other

This event also seeks to educate & instill a greater awareness of E-Commerce & the Online Trading Industry, including how convenient and easy it is to buy and sell online."

Elias Ghanem, Managing Director and General manager of Paypal South East Asia & India

"We are thrilled to participate in the first-ever Lelong.my E-Commerce Fair and are looking forward to connecting with SMEs to help them cost effectively grow their business through selling online."

The Open Ceremony cutting ribbon moments

I was frightened by the celebration "fireworks" cos it was so loud. Maybe that's why all the VIP never manage to grab the ribbon-flower after a frightening cut. *lol*



Went for the Q&A Press Conference session and Richard Tan mentioned that certainly there will be another E-Commerce Fair held in Malaysia. Richard always have a smiling face but I wonder why his friends look so... *why so serious?*

Superbid hour start bidding from RM1

Whilst the E-Commerce Fair means serious business to the entrepreneur seeking to tap into the huge potential of home shopping in Malaysia and beyond, lots of exciting activities such as informative talks and workshops, Lucky Draws, Contests, Free Gifts, Goodie Bags including its hugely popular Superbid Hour when attractive items are open for bidding starting from RM1.00. Visitor can also expect best Buy Offers for gadgets, handphones, cameras, fashion, jewellery, computers, car accessories and many more by participating e-retailers. All these and lots more on the agenda to make this a worthwhile visit.

Do note that all exhibitors have an online store on Lelong.my. So feel free to get their products online! Every Wednesday Lelong.my have their Superbid auction where over 600 branded and new items are offered for bidding starting from RM1.

Since it is only Friday when I visit, it wasn't so packed and good for us to explore booth by booth. I guess only photography related booth attracted me =)

Here's a Mini Photostudio that made shooting professional photos easy. Was excited to know there are people selling this convenient photography tools but the price not as cheap as you think. There are four different sizes and price ranging from RM750 - RM6900.

The other thing that excited me is HyperGear Waterproof Accessories. It is expensive to get a solid plastic/polymer waterproof case for your camera but today I found an alternative waterproof pouch that cost only RM100+/- and it is submersible up to 19ft/6m.

If you have camera like LUMIX LX-5, you will need this kind of HyberGear Waterproof Camera Pouch. They are selling other waterproof accessories like backpack, earphone and many more. You can visit their website here: HyperGear Waterproof Accessories. I guess I will get one pouch for my compact camera specially for snorkeling soon! Or you wanna sponsor me one? =D
