Consumer responses to 3D online shopping malls are influenced by their attitudes toward technology. This study examines the consumer differentiation according to technology readiness, compares customers with different technology readiness in terms of their perceived telepresence and e-loyalty, and examines the effect of their perceived telepresence on their e-loyalty. Samples from 300 females aged 21 to 39 were used for the final analysis. The results are as follows. First, consumers were classified into three groups, Explorers (N=72), Pioneers (N=105), and Skeptics (N=123), through factor analysis and k-means cluster analysis. Second, the Explorers evaluated the telepresence of the 3D online shopping mall higher than any other group. The Skeptics presented lower e-loyalty and perceived less telepresence in the 3D online shopping mall than the other two groups. Finally, telepresence had a significant influence on e-loyalty, as identified by the regression analysis. This verifies the effectiveness of 3D technology adopted or to be adopted by online shopping malls and demonstrates that 3D shopping malls can be a strategic alternative in the online shopping sector where competition is fierce. The results show that online shopping malls should focus on establishing 3D shopping environments with further effort to utilize the technology.

Recently, owing to the rapid growth of the Internet and information technology, the growth of the Internet shopping mall has been truly phenomenal. In the Internet shopping mall, as the customers can't touch a product directly, trust is important factor in purchasing intention. Many researchers proposed direct relationship between the customer trust and the purchasing intention. We supposed that there would be some factors that could be the consequences of trust in on-line purchasing decision, and the factors could be also the determinants of purchasing intention and decision for the Internet shopping mall customers. We found out that there were indirect relationship between them through the customer's attitude, involvement, and royalty to the site rather then directly related. Particularly, the correlation between the site attitude and the purchasing intention was high, but the direct effect was not significant. The site attitude was indirectly related to the purchasing intention through the customer involvement and loyalty. This means that the customer relationship involvement and loyalty enhancement strategies are more important for the success of Internet shopping mall.
