Electrical goods are probably one of the best commodities to buy on the internet. They are expensive
but you can get big savings on line. Find the model you want, then find it online and buy at the best price. We usually have 10,000 electrical goods in our online
catalogue which makes finding the a good price a lot easier for you.
Some useful tips to buying electicals on line:
Use the web to check out user rating for the model you want. A lot of web sites have their own user reviews and let you buy via them. But look for the independants that review
lots of models, because if you only have one product to sell, you'll write your own rave reviews to make it look good. We're cynical at shop but we've also seen stores write reviews to sell
stock thats not shifting, or where they have a bigger markup. The interent may be great, but it can also mislead.
The big retailers on the high street often do web special prices online to be competitive. So don't ignore them. If you're unsure about buying from a retailer you've never heard of, this may be the best route.
Make sure you compare like with like. Factor in warranties, delivery etc. And make sure they have a telephone number to ring if it all goes wrong. John Lewis for instance often do 5 year warranties in store but you might not get the same deal on line.
If you're still not sure, then get the best price you can, take it to a shop, and haggle. You might not be able to get to that price, but you do know the sort of margin the retailer has to play with.
