Seeing it in the other direction, WalMart tends to have their special edition of whatever it is, and it's almost always price / performance, and or some extra pack in, or size change. The Video Only people cater to the home theatre crowd and tend to stock sets that are high technical performers at great prices. I have no doubt it's all about the price matching, but sometimes, depending on the retailer and their business model, it can be about differentiation, like actually having something better in some distinct way. Both very nice options, and finding them together sometimes meant buying another expensive model that comes with other fat margin, mostly useless features.

The set I got for $650 (and again, not exact, just representative numbers here) had the faster video processor and ran at 120Hz, which means the 3D capability ran at a full 60Hz for each eye, and game mode was low lag. Their people will tell you all about doing that too. The Video Only one was $900, and would drop to like $650 when it's time to move the new stuff in. Example: A common Samsung Plasma could be found all over town for say, $800. This happens with a local store here called "Video Only", and they will typically stock higher end features.

It's like some other things on the Internet - a sensible person subsists on the free "teaser" information and never ever engages in any sort of relationship.Īpart from an indication of what a fair price is, the histogram showed relative discounts between models, and there's frequently/always ones that are being disdained by the public that are very good cars and dealers are desperate to move, versus ones that are in high demand that they won't discount. The special True Car price and "services" and all that seemed like a diversion to me. I don't know how accurate it really was, and if it was accurate, someone might have "gotten to them" in later years to inflate the statistics and preserve profit margins.īut it seemed to me really valuable information for negotiating a new car purchase. They had a nice histogram, showing the range and most common price and how far off msrp it was. I can't vouch for whatever the state of True Car is right now, but several years ago (more than once) I went there for information on the average selling price of new cars. Honestly, "moving companies" is not a category that seems like it would be in Consumer Reports' wheelhouse, and I'm surprised they offered any recommendations in that area at all.Īlso, your anecdote doesn't really support the notion that they're "pay-to-play, just that they did a bad job in some category.Īre you actually thinking of the Better Business Bureau but got it mixed up with Consumer reports? I would expect the BBB to rate moving services and I've heard that they have some kind of membership program for businesses that seems to allow better control over complaints, which is pretty close to "pay-to-play."
Turns out the top three or four moving services are merely dispatchers run by a single company, run by a convicted felon out of Florida under a rotating number of businesses and cutouts. > As an example, I used them for moving services for a state-to-state move. > Sorry I have to weigh in here and say that Consumer Reports is a pay-to-play service now, where often the worst products & services are not the best, and often times criminally bad. Their business model for almost a century has been to produce independent reviews of products, and charge for the reviews. > If you want to solve the problem of product research in an old-school way, Consumer Reports still exists.

P.S: Whats most ridiculous about my Youtube Printer research experience, the best and most helpful video was a sales video from a home shopping TV station, where they actually showed some printing action and handling of one of the models I was interested in. I wonder if outlawing affiliate marketing would make the world a better place. The web has become a crappy place to research products as long as money can be made with those through affiliations. And of course, affiliate links in the description. It was mostly marketing websites turned into video (slowly scrolling/moving over product description or pictures clearly taken from the web). Most video search results were basically "Youtube SEO" again - the most viewed/top-ranked videos did never show a single actual print run or even the printer available. Repeated my search on Youtube to find reviews or unboxing. Especially sad since those affiliate links to Amazon mostly resulted in "This product is currently not available" sites. Search results were mostly blogs and crappy websites that offered obviously no insights but were just SEO optimized to direct you to their Amazon affiliate links. Just researched good/quality crafting printers yesterday.
