If you're a tourist who happens to visit Davao City or a local of the city, better visit this shop online or their physical store. WHAT'S THIS STORE ALL ABOUT? Find out more by reading and scrolling down...
Filipinos love butingtings and we Pinoys love to visit shops that have a blend of a variety of small and big stuff, and unique collectible items. Davao City is no excuse for it. Lots of shops emerged in the city a few years back until today and locals were drooling over these shops. Why so? Because primarily these shops offer cheaper prices than malls.
Last 2015, 25th of December, Christmas time, Gian and Marie Dakay, a young entrepreneur couple decided to put up a small business, an online shop.
(All items posted here are from Buy.Arigatō and are for sale)
Why put-up a collectible shop?
Gian and Marie love to watch movies, TV series, anime and collects fandom merchandise and other butingtings. It’s hard to find affordable unique fan/collectible items these days. If there is, most of these items/merchandises in the malls or other stores are marked with high prices. Yon bang feeling na I wanna buy this Naruto bag but you can only look at it, can’t even touch it because it’s too pricey. This is one of the reasons why Buy Arigatō was established, to help people, young ones and young at heart with their wants.
“When we got married, things were different and we wanted more time for ourselves so we decided to start a business. At first, medyo more than full time talaga, actually until now, we have a very busy schedule but as forward-thinkers, we see in the future that the business won't have to take as much time as it does now.”
Why name it with Buy Arigatō?
“The name, 'Buy Arigatō', was not the first. Sa first attempt namin, "Arigatō" lang pero after that, pag search namin, may iba nang business with that name so we thought we should have something unique. I (Gian) based it on I.T. jargon. For example, info.google or mail.google or web.skype ganun. So, I thought, "Since it's a store, why not Buy.Arigatō?" then after much deliberation, we decided the final name of the business - Buy Arigatō. Ta da!”
What makes Buy Arigatō different from others?
The shop caters our needs and wants. These young entreps are not different from all of us. They are also consumers, they love any stuff, fan stuff, and they are like us. They know our needs and help us achieve these needs by offering their help through Buy.Arigatō.
“Our stuff is different from others because we try our best to give the cheapest price there is on the market. Our products are also led by the demands of the customers.”
In addition, their items are unique and many people appreciate them. It may just be a necklace based on an old movie but it brings back fond memories of your childhood or of your kids.
Also, it’s online so people can have access to their shop anytime at any place and it’s less hassle than going to a certain store just to buy a thing or two when it’s too sunny or it’s a rainy season.
Where can we find your shop aside from online?
They have two (2) physical stores. The first one is The Concept Store, located inside Cube Bazaar (besides Globe), 3rd Floor, Abreeza Mall, Davao City.
Their office hours are as the same as the Abreeza Mall. The second one is Shoppers' Hub, located at C5 Dormitel (besides Chippens), Ground Floor, Roxas Ave., Davao City. They’re open from 10a.m. until 9p.m., Monday-Saturday only.
Buy.Arigatō also joins bazaars in the city. Watch out for their schedules on their Facebook Page.
What’s nice about Buy.Arigatō?
Aside from their unique and affordable items, Gian and Marie are two humble human beings. This is the reason why their customers became loyal to them. They ain’t gonna fool you. They take good care of their customers because they both have this heart for them not only because they knew what it feels like to be one but it’s their nature.
They answer your queries in no time (depending on how busy their schedule is), and they value you. Trust me, I knew Gian way back since he was an I.T. student and I’ve met Marie and both were awesome people.
