Present Wish Lists

Types of Wish Lists

There are a wide range of wishlist types and some may be better than others for your needs.

You can create a wish list for you specific to a forthcoming celebration event OR an open, general wish list for things that you hope for anytime, Revise your wishlist anytime, more so for a special event such as a Birthday, or at Christmas.

Let's look at the options of wish list types;

  • retailers wish list - on online retailer sells a range of goods, usually aimed at a market sector - womens fashions, shoes, electrical goods and the like, and often designed for an age range. Clearly if you are wanting gifts for a child you will want a site which sells games and toys, get the picture? A retailers wishlist is specific to what they sell only. Some systems will NOT mark the wishlist with the bought item until it is actually bought and ticked off by the buyer.
  • retailers reservation wish list - used to pre-order things like books and games which are due for release in the future, or are out of stock when you tried to order. Often this can be a definite order or an email notification that goods are in stock and you can now order if still needed.
  • wishlist sites tied to several online retailers - here you can look for goods across a wide range of sites and use a single central wish list. This clearly has greater appeal with users who can offer gift givers a wide range and "target" sites to suit the persons wants or the type of celebration and budget. Some sites offer wares from a few retailers others many hundreds. Be sure retailers are based in or deliver to your COUNTRY. International deliveries can take several weeks and maybe subject to import duty on arrival.
  • wishlist site which provide a free wishlist service but having no ties to any online retailers, although they may carry advertising. Gift givers can choose where they buy the goods from. Often the wish list allows users to enter a URL of the product on a retailers site. Present givers can access the list and tick off an item they have decided to buy, but need not buy the product at that time.
  • wishlist site with BROWSER interface - a clever idea which is not always efficient in all instances - you download a browser add-on to popular browsers such as Firefox and MS Explorer and can then add a product to your wishlist from the website being visted to source a hoped for present. Features much like a traditional wishlist enabling you to create various lists, add gift ideas and allow buyers to tick them off when agreeing to buy.

Wish lists can usually be printed off to see who has agreed to give what, and gift givers can usually print off a list to see what is being asked for.

Duplication of present is still possible if gift givers delay buying an item they have selected or failed to tick off an item.
