物販商品 items for sale Explanation: From the context, it would seem to mean sales of item from the stock kept in the trade show booth, as differentiated from regular retail items you'd be expected to pick up in a permanent store or online. |

物販商品 merchandise products Explanation: 物販 = 物品販売 = "merchandise sales" Although the direct translation is "merchandise sales products," "merchandise sales products" has no google hit. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs 49 mins (2005-08-02 18:10:51 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- FYI: Definition of ¥"merchandise sales¥": ¥"Merchandise sales represent the retail value of all sales transactions, inclusive of freight charges and net of allowances for returns and discounts, which flow through the GSI Commerce platform, whether or not the company is the seller of the merchandise, or records the full amount of such sales on its financial statements. GSI Commerce uses merchandise sales as a metric for operating its business. Variable costs such as fulfillment and customer service labor expense, order processing costs such as credit card and bank processing fees and business management costs such as marketing department staffing levels are related to the amount of sales made through GSI Commerce’s platform, whether or not GSI Commerce records the revenue from such sales.¥" http://www.internetstockblog.com/2005/04/gsi_commerce.html |
