Open publisher page 9 citations

Abstract

AbstractThe aim of this paper is twofold. First, we propose to conceptualize the perceived value of mass customization into two components: 1) mass-customized product value and 2) mass customization experience. Second, we test an integrative framework bringing together value components and willingness to pay for mass-customized products. As opposed to previous research, the findings show an indirect effect of mass customization experience on consumer willingness to pay. Furthermore, no direct effect is found.
