SK’s Amazon India storefront

Hello,

As I have mentioned elsewhere, the main shopping area can be visited on the Amazon India website. As of now, there are 38 sections (including sub-sections) to the main store. The entire store has been built over several months. Each item has been hand-picked, and each section of the store is organized to make the decision-making as easy as possible.

Why though, the need to create such a store?

This is an important question. And, it can be answered rather simply. As you already know, over the years, the Amazon marketplace has continued to grow. That is, of course, a good thing. The customer is offered as much variety as possible. With so many manufacturers and suppliers, the bent is always towards the customer’s satisfaction. At the same time, since the marketplace continues to grow, there is also a compromise on quality. In order to cater to every segment of customers, there is a sort of a mixing of standards of quality. While everyone desires good quality for the money they spend, not everyone is willing to spend the extra buck to get the quality they could. To separate the good from the ordinary, such a store as I have created is required.

Besides, where it was easier to make a decision, now it can be time-consuming, tedious, and confusing. SK’s store simplifies the decision-making process as it already eliminates what was considered unfit to be a part of the storefront. You might say, I have weeded out those products which did not meet my criteria. The same criteria and process of selection can be useful to the other buyers as well. Those criteria most often include the brand, the existing price, after-sales support on durable items, and customer reviews. These are always considered when including an item. And, while it is nearly impossible to always stand by every item that is included in SK’s store, one can have the confidence that the longer an item has stayed in the market and preserved its reputation, it is a good buy. The only factor, notwithstanding, are technological advances that can make a shift in the performance of a product, or that particular category of products. For the most part, the homework is already done.

Instead of creating a store that is always struggling to keep up with the latest trends, this is a collection of items that can be relied upon.

The list of categories

Presented below is the entire list of 38 categories in alphabetical order. On the store itself, the order of categories and individual items could undergo changes at any time. However, this list will always link to each category in the order given here. Each link will take you directly to the section of SK’s Amazon India Storefront.

Apparel and footwear

Good footwear is about personal comfort. This is foremost. The style should come second. Anywhere one can find that balance between comfort and style, one can stop looking. A small range here to look into. And, while one is considering footwear, there is every reason to look at other apparel to go with it – T-shirts, jeans, caps, jackets, etc!

Art and décor


To beautify one’s home is a most natural desire. While one may seek to make the home beautiful on the outside by attending to the garden, and keeping clean surroundings, it is even more important to make one’s home beautiful on the inside. It is up to every person with a home to create an environment that leads to happiness, and to well-being. To that end, here are some ideas from where art pieces and decorative items can be brought into play. Enjoy!

Audio equipment


There isn’t a home that wouldn’t benefit from good music. And, for enjoying music as it could be, one must think of having good, reliable audio equipment. So, here’s a list of bookshelf speakers, tower speakers, woofers, headphones, and A/V systems from the best brands around. Please, note that the listed items are grouped by brands and types.

Beverages

The foremost fluid intake is clean water. Aside from drinking plain, clean water, there are a number of beverages to refresh oneself, relax, benefit through their anti-oxidant properties, etc. Of course, it is also fine to enjoy a drink for its flavor and pleasure. Here’s a list of my recommendations. Enjoy!

Cameras and lenses


The skills of photography and its techniques can be acquired. A natural talent for photography is even better to have. However, the tools at one’s disposal do make a significant difference to the end result. Here’s a range of cameras and lenses to pick from. And, aside from cameras and their lenses, here is a selection of binoculars and telescopes as well.

E-readers and Books

What can one even say about books! These have been called the carriers of civilization, a man’s best friend, the receptacles of history and so much more. If ever a human being wanted to record his ideas in the form of words and pictures, books were the primary tool. Reading is an excellent occupation; a necessary hobby. It truly engages the mind, builds imagination, the powers of attention, and thinking ability. Books will always be the means for personal growth for the ideas they contain for any one of us!

Gold and savings

To keep some gold is considered to bring good fortune. It is, indeed, as the wealth that has traditionally stayed within families!

While in recent years there has been a trend toward considering shaving a mere necessity, or part of a mundane routine, an awareness has been growing toward the art of shaving.
