Buying with Deals and Coupons through Buy.com

Buy.com joins the rank of the top deals and coupons sites in the U.S. The company is based in Aliso Viejo, CA and was founded in 1997. Like other successful shopping sites, Buy.com shares a page in Wikipedia. This is where we have learned about behind-the-site information on Buy.com.

The website offers over 2 million products from various stores online and in-store locations. It’s no wonder that the site has served over 8 million shoppers now since it started. In fact, more than a million of them wrote positive reviews about Buy.com all over the web including review site BizRate.com. In certain review sites, a company representative even responds to complaints and negative comments posted by customers.

Another review authority, CNET.com also rates and certifies the company’s online store. The rates were based on industry standards such as site functionality, store standards, order fulfillment, and customer feedback. All of which are pretty much self-explanatory save store standards. The score on this category is based on the site’s privacy policy, contact information, how the company responds to queries, and the quality of product presentation including prices, merchant details, shipping costs, etc. Buy.com of course receives a perfect score on all categories.

The company’s credibility is further testified by the BBB or Better Business Bureau. Buy.com has been BBB certified since 1998 (01/08/1998 to be exact) and has consistently maintained good standards in order to keep that certification from then on. The notable criteria for BBB’s judgment include business tenure, company information available, and volume of complaints received including responses and resolution.

Aside from credibility and good standards, Buy.com also holds the prestige of being the only one among few shopping sites, with an iPhone app. The application lets you browse products and make purchases right through your mobile phone. Like multi-billion dollar shopping site Amazon, Buy.com also has local shopping networks in various countries worldwide. Some of these include Canada, the U.K., France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and Japan.

As for information when it comes to navigating the site, Buy.com is very easy to navigate. The main page alone let’s you browse through what the site has to offer in a nutshell. The best deals are featured in special sections. Some of these include the Deal of the Week area, What’s Shakin’ which lists down deals with the most price changes (cheaper of course) over the past 24 hours, and the Buy.com Recommendations where deals handpicked by the site’s staff are featured.
