Low Prices on Froogle

intelliot · 05-01-2004, 09:04 PM

Where do you do your price comparisons? Lately, I've found that Froogle returns excellent results when I choose to sort by price.

For computer stuff I also like www.pricewatch.com

I like comparison websites a lot, but I'm always scared to buy things from no-name companies online.

I think they should include an option to rate the companies and then sort your search results by the highest rated store.

Sometimes I search for "[website name] scam" or "complaint" to see if people have posted complaints about the company. It's not foolproof, but it's better than nothing.

The problem I've had with froogle is it doesn't keep up with inventory. I was looking for an iPod mini not long ago and it was sold out everywhere but Froogle doesn't retrieve that kind of info from merchants, apparently.

It seems to use XML or product feeds. I'm concerned that merchants will start abusing the system to get more visitors. It would kill their reputation, but still.

At my work they've got this cool little intranet thing that compares prices, then tells you whether or not you can get something with a staff discount. Which is nice.
