where you get the best deals, with a list of thousands of
products to select from. Buyers usually get stuck in a dilemma, whether to buy
or not, is the product original or if the price is worth the product. So here
is a list of 5 things you should know to get the best deal.
1- Feature Comparison
There is a feature on most of the online shopping sites which
allows the user to compare the prices, features and ratings of multiple
products in the same window. This is how it looks. While browsing through the
products you can see 'Add to compare' button below the product. *This is from
flipkart*
2- Customer Rating and reviews
This is my personal favourite thing to assess the quality,
originality and worth of the product. The trick is not to see the 5 star
ratings or the 1 one star ratings, most 1 star ratings are from people who got
a defective piece, in that case you can get it replaced or refunded, ultimately
you're not at loss.
Look of the number of stars, 3 star and 4 star ratings are the
most original ones where people have actually tested and reviewed the product.
So read the reviews of those with 4 stars or nearby to know the worth.
3- Images uploaded by the customers
This is a must do thing before you buy any product, compare the
photos uploaded to those presented on the website. By this you can know the
originality of the product and what is the actual and unadulterated photos
looks like. Scroll through the photos to look for other objects to compare the
size. Once you are satisfied with the photos you can be confident about the
originality.
If you don't find the photos of the product on one site you can
always go on other sites to look at and order from the one of your desire.
4- Same product on multiple sites
Whenever you wish to buy a product and you want to buy it before
the deal ends, always take a minute to look for other sites as well, there are
chances you get the same prices or even low in some other sites. This is
because any product cannot be sold below the MRP, so it is the lowest selling
price, and many sites don't sell with high margins.
While there are various options, always read the return policies
of the website, in case you encounter a bad product so you can get the adequate
help from the sites. Trusted sites are thus better if you are buying an
expensive product, as for them customer rating is very crucial.
5- Android/Ios Apps offers of the sites
If you are buying and product on the computer browser, do check
the price of the product on the mobile application, it usually gives more
discount to the app users because it grows their subscribers count.
Most of the sites provide offers and discounts on specific bank
payments, UPI, or paytm. You should always check those offers using mobile
application. Many offers are there for app but not on the computer. This can
also come in handy when you buy any product on flash sale, login using both the
computer and the mobile app (use on mobile data) and double your chances of
hitting the jackpot.
