NETIQUE® - CUTTING HOURS OFF GIFT SHOPPING

ALEXANDRIA, VA - September 30, 1997 -- The Netique® Gift Boutique (http://www.netique.com) announces a one-stop, cyberspace gift site. Within minutes, gift givers can select, purchase, gift wrap, and ship gifts from the comfort of the home or office. Netique caters to those who enjoy giving unique gifts, but who lack the time to leisurely browse boutiques looking for the perfect gift for a special loved one, client or employee.

From a chocolate bar that looks like a Monet painting, to elegant business accessories from Dalvey, Scotland, Netique offers distinctive, high quality gifts to meet a variety of personalities and budgets. For the computer enthusiast, Netique features chocolate computer disks and mouse pads with artistic motifs.

The company offers a selection of elegant picnic baskets and a picnic backpack that have proved popular as wedding or anniversary presents, as well as corporate gifts. The site even offers a gift tailored to the business professional who is an environmentally-conscious cycling enthusiast - a business card holder made from recycled bicycle rims.

Netique's first priority is customer satisfaction, offering rapid responses to inquiries, confirmation of orders online or by fax, and a satisfaction guarantee. The site is easy to navigate, and all gifts are displayed in clear, professionally produced images. The company also extends special terms and services to corporate gift buyers.

Equipped with a secured server for credit card purchases, Netique also provides both a toll-free phone number (1-888-WEB-GIFT) and a fax number (1-703-689-3703) for those individuals hesitant to submit credit card information online.

Netique, Ltd., the owner of Netique Gift Boutique, is a privately held Virginia corporation founded in 1995.
