Abstract: | Internet retailing has significantly changed the character of retail competition. More often, ordinary consumers, not just the technologically savvy ones, are making purchases over the Internet. The extent to which e-tailers can build trust will significantly influence the willingness of consumers to make purchases over the Internet. As a result, it is important to better understand the factors influencing consumers' trust in e-tailers. This research models the effects of store name, on-line security guarantee, and money-back guarantee on price expectations and willingness to buy. The results suggest that value-enhancing approaches, like assurance of security encryption and money-back guarantees, are more important for less well-known e-tailers than for their more famous competitors. |
