| Q: |
I found something I want to buy - how do I buy it? |
|
| A: |
Our goal here at PriceGrabber is to provide you with easy, free access to
the best prices on the Internet. We don't sell any of the products listed on
our site, instead we consolidate the prices of a variety of merchants and
present them to you in order by price. Once you decide which merchant you
would like to make your purchase with, simply click on the name of that
merchant to go directly to their page for that product. Once you arrive at
their site, follow their instructions to complete the purchase.

| Q: |
I know what I want, but I'm not sure how to find it on your site. What are my options? |

| A: |
Searching - If you know exactly what you're looking for, you can enter the part number or keywords into the search box to go directly to it. |
| |
Browsing - If you only know the type of product you want, you can navigate to the right category by clicking on a link to the appropriate channel and selecting the category from the list on the channel page. |
| |
Attribute-Based Searching - Once you get to a list of products to select from, you can narrow your search by selecting the attributes you want from the drop-down menus on the left-hand side of the page, or entering your desired price range. You can also re-order the search results by price or product description, or select several items for a side-by-side comparison. |

| Q: |
I'm not just interested in prices; I need help making a decision. What information can you provide me about products that might help me? |
|
| A: |
The PriceGrabber listings include several resources to help you make an informed purchasing decision: |
| |
Product Reviews - These are reviews posted by other consumers like yourself. They include a star rating on a 5-point scale as well as pros/cons and comments. You can find the overall star rating at the top of any product page, and a link to the detailed reviews is located just beneath the overall rating. You can also add your own product reviews; to do so you will need a (free) PriceGrabber account. |
| |
Technical Specifications - Detailed product specifications can be viewed for most products on PriceGrabber. Simply click the "Tech. Specifications" link on any product page to view this information. |
| |
Side-by-Side Comparison - You can use this feature to view the technical specifications for multiple products side-by-side. This allows you to make an informed decision based on your knowledge of the features and benefits of each product you are considering. You can access side-by-side comparison by navigating to an attribute search page, selecting the products you want to compare by clicking the checkbox next to them, then clicking the red "Compare" button found at the top and bottom of the column of checkboxes. |

| Q: |
I live in (Alaska, Hawaii) and your system won't accept my zip code - why not? |
|
| A: |
Our shipping estimates are based on UPS Ground shipping formulas provided to us by each merchant. Since UPS Ground shipping is only available in the continental US, we are currently unable to provide shipping estimates for Alaska and Hawaii. Most of our merchants do ship to Alaska and Hawaii, though; click the Shop button next to the merchant and check shipping details directly with them. |
|
|
|
| Q: |
I live outside of the US. Can I use PriceGrabber? |
|
| A: |
PriceGrabber's services are available for use anywhere in the world. Many of our merchants ship internationally - you will need to contact the merchant of your choice directly in order to determine thier international shipping policies.
