Kitabain.com Launched – A books marketplace

Kitabain.com is our latest initiative towards making books accessible to a wider audience in Pakistan. About 10 months or so ago we started out The Readers Club, Pakistan’s first online book rental service in Karachi (www.thereadersclub.com) with the overriding goal of promoting reading and books before any financial or commercial interests. It was the overwhelming response and support for The Readers Club, which motivated us to build kitabain.com. For us our success has only been due to the trust our members have placed in us and for that we are eternally grateful to many many people. Very often we get requests from members for the option to purchase books that they’d like to hold on to and also a way to give away books that might be lying around without much use. Well we’ve tried to put the two requests together along with other ideas to come up kitabain.com. Very happy to report that we already have a few bookstores on board who are just starting to catalog their entire inventories. We envision it as a platform to enable individual sellers or independent bookstores to instantly make their inventory available to a much wider audience than they can typically hope to with a geographically constrained brick and mortar establishment. For Buyers; Whether you are looking for the latest releases or something hard-to-find,we hope that you can find it at drastically reduced prices on kitabain.com. Basic details on how the system works can be found by visiting the FAQ page(or you can call us too anytime): http://www.kitabain.com/index.php?view=site_pages&id=3

We eagerly look forward to comments and suggestions from everyone so that we can keep refining the process as we go along. And since we are just starting out please feel absolutely free to report any bugs or omissions that you encounter. Looking forward to seeing with an account on Kitabain.com soon!
