Advantages: easy, fast loading, money saving
Disadvantages: copy of google design
Find the best price before you buy! I think this site is brilliant - the only regret is that I didn’t find it earlier. ** About the site ** I honestly believe that saveonbooks.co.uk is an excellent site and worth visiting if you haven’t heard of it before. It simply picks out the best prices for books you wish to buy (and is a great deal better than other comparison sites - as it is really simple and easy to use). I have ordered many books at e.g. amazon UK and I can’t believe how much I would have saved if I had used this service earlier on. The good thing about the site is that it searches a lot of bookstores realtime, and in that way lets you save lots of money. ** Example of a bargain made ** Let me give you an example: I bought "Nigella Bites" by Nigella Lawson some time ago. With only three clicks of my mouse I had saved £6.20 even though only four of the bookstores searched had the title. Other examples of my book bargains are "Javascript Bible" by Danny Goodman (saved £7.41) and "Sams Teach Yourself Java 2 in 21 Days" by Laura Lemay (saved £6.20). ** How to use the site ** When you make a search the site presents all the relevant titles for you. From there you choose which book you wish to price compare (e.g. according to title, author, binding, etc., so you know exactly what you get). After choosing your book you get the best price from 8 bookstores and the amount saved on the book is also shown. From there you can go directly to the shop that has the best price (or best delivery time...). Really easy. ** Site Navigation/Design ** I think this site is brilliant, as it is kept very simple (much like the google site). In that way it is very easy to find the best prices on books. Results are really fast and you can even get further information with a picture of the book if you are not sure the book is the right one. Furthermore there are no annoying
banners and the like - only the info that I as shopper need. That's really a joy! ** Concluding Remarks ** This is a very good site, where you can save loads of money and feel satisfied doing your online shopping knowing you’ve got a better deal. From now on I only use the service for my book purchases, as I have saved a lot more than I would get if I e.g. went directly to Amazon. Good Luck!

- 22/11/01 Welcome to dooyoo. Thanks for the tip, but you might want to write more about the site. After visiting it I appreciate there's not a whole lot to write but more detail & mixed with your personal opinion would be nice. Past experiences with book bargains perhaps?
Another tip is to make sure you read other people's ops. |
