Storefront — trust and price in the first screen

A Hindi-first refurbished-laptop storefront that moves buyers from use case to product, EMI, warranty, and assisted purchase.

Context

Refurbished-laptop buyers need to judge suitability, condition, warranty, payment, and support before they can trust a low-priced device.

The problem

The experience had to reduce technical and purchase anxiety for people shopping by practical use rather than processor specifications alone.

Approach

  • Write the core journey in direct, conversational Hindi.
  • Let shoppers enter through use case, catalogue, or a guided laptop finder.
  • Keep EMI, warranty, quality checks, and support visible near product decisions.
  • Use WhatsApp as an assisted-commerce layer rather than a disconnected contact link.

Key decisions

  • Start with the jobStudents, office users, and online learners can begin with what they need to do instead of decoding hardware language.
  • Price needs contextThe site pairs the headline price with monthly EMI, warranty, charger, delivery, and quality-check information.
  • Assistance stays closeCall and WhatsApp paths sit beside browsing and product details so questions do not become an exit from the journey.

What shipped

  • A live catalogue with product detail routes and use-case filters.
  • A guided laptop-selection flow.
  • EMI, warranty, support, FAQ, and policy journeys.
Evidence boundary

The live site contains customer and product claims. This case study must not repeat them as independently verified results.
