ikman.lk<\/a> today announced the introduction of a new feature on its website, launched to provide greater convenience to buyers and sellers. The new service, branded \u2018Buy Now\u2019 <\/a>allow sellers to deliver their products direct to the buyer via ikman.lk, for a nominal fee.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

All products under the categories of electronics<\/a>, electronics accessories<\/a>, fashion, health and beauty<\/a>, hobbies, sports and kids<\/a> items now feature the \u2018Buy Now\u2019 option. Whenever a seller posts an item under any of the above categories, the \u2018Buy Now\u2019 feature is automatically enabled. If a buyer clicks on the \u2018Buy Now\u2019 feature, ikman.lk will get in touch with the buyer further clarifying the buyer\u2019s intent to buy. The seller will be notified; ikman.lk will collect the item from the seller, deliver it to the buyer, collect the payment on the seller\u2019s behalf and remit it to the seller\u2019s bank account. The \u2018Buy Now\u2019 feature adds greater convenience to both parties. While buyers and sellers can still interact with each other, this is an added service from ikman.lk eliminating the need for buyers and sellers to meet across distances, giving sellers the opportunity to reach more buyers as ikman.lk takes on the responsibility to deliver to most out station locations.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Sellers can have items delivered within the Colombo district for a nominal percentage of the value of the item. ikman.lk also delivers items to some locations out station for which buyers are required to pay  a nominal percentage of the value of the item.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Speaking about the introduction of this service, Mr. Stefan Beekmeyer\u2013 Director Marketing & sales, of ikman.lk said, \u201cSince it\u2019s inception ikman.lk has been focused on introducing new value additions to our offering, which bring about greater convenience to users. While classifieds will always remain our main focus, we introduced the \u201cBuy Now\u2019 feature as a service within a service, eliminating the need for buyers and sellers to travel across distances to meet and conclude a transaction. Thus giving buyers the opportunity to have access items for sale across the island and sellers the opportunity to sell to more buyers regardless of their geographical location.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Mr. Thivanka Liyanage from Mulleriyawa New Town who recently purchased a phone<\/a> from ikman.lk using the \u2018Buy Now\u2019 feature said, \u201cI purchased a phone from Dream Mobiles in Piliyandala and ikman.lk delivered the phone right to my doorstep. The product was exactly the same as was described on the website and I find this service not just convenient but also reliable.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The introduction of this service is yet another first from ikman.lk, which prides it\u2019s self on being the pioneer of innovative services in the classifieds industry in Sri Lanka. The \u2018Buy Now\u2019 option is the latest in a string of new value additions introduced by ikman.lk who announced that plans are in the pipeline for several more unique features in the near future.<\/p>\n
