Abstract

See full text

The system of the present invention calculates a variation in balance between a commercial value and a price of an item before and after a predetermined revision and accumulates the calculated point in a Web server. When a customer who has purchased the item within a predetermined time period prior to a price revision or a functional revision of the item requires the Web server to output a customer's page allocated to the customer, the Web server displays the accumulated point in the customer's page. The Web server also displays specification of an available service corresponding to the accumulated point, for example, a discount on price of the item corresponding to the accumulated point. This arrangement of the system effectively wipes out the customer's feeling of loss due to the price revision or the functional revision of the item.
