Maybe for some, but most of that outdated notion is based on a pre-internet mentality. By limiting the number of exhibitors to just the recognized best in each category, you can buy with complete confidence. Anyone who tells you it's a “touch and feel thing” probably has some type of financial interest in you being at an in-person show.
Because these are the most trusted suppliers with many years in business and thousands of satisfied, returning customers. Do less walking and do more buying in a fully virtual show hall. vGift doesn't bring in hundreds of exhibitors that don't belong at a show and can't fill your orders just to fill a giant room.
Nothing. Browse the show floor and shop with absolutely no additional costs. Just like at an in-person show, you will place your orders and arrange payments directly with the supplier. vGift will never ask you for money.
Not necessarily - By all means retailers should use an all of the above approach to their product sourcing and buying. However, the costs and difficulties of travel are only getting worse, and vGift recreates the in-show experience with none of the headaches, hassles and expense.
