Digital hypermarkets are becoming less and less different from each other. The pricing policy is similar, as are all promotions and discount weeks. The eyes of the buyer have long been turned towards free classifieds sites, where there is still an opportunity to buy the desired gadget at an affordable price. The emergence of discount stores is precisely the market's response to consumer demand for relatively inexpensive equipment.
Having plunged into the theory a little, you can find that the discount from English translates as a discount. This is the main and most attractive feature of stores positioning themselves as digital technology discounts. The word is unfamiliar to a wide range of consumers, and therefore arouses suspicion:
The scheme of work of discount outlets is quite simple: a certain company negotiates with well-known retail chains to supply it with equipment that has shortcomings both in appearance and in hardware. Several types of goods can be attributed to this category, these are display cases that have scratches on the case, have an incomplete delivery set, or simply banal dents on the box, or more often just its absence.
- you ask. Indeed, a micro-scratch on the body of the gadget, a small dent on the package or the absence of a power supply unit, at first glance, is a small problem, but this is enough for the buyer to refuse to purchase such a product.
When purchasing equipment in digital supermarkets, each customer wants, even insists on the ideal appearance not only of the gadget itself, but also of its packaging. Most will refuse to purchase the selected product if it does not have a factory film, let alone a crumpled box.
Show pieces with scratches and scuffs make up the bulk of the assortment of discount centers. The big discount is quite adequate and is aimed at the quick sale of not the newest model of the gadget. The next day will come and new models of devices will be released, and therefore, sellers are forced to attract a buyer with the help of a low price, which sometimes differs from the store one at times.
A small percentage of discount store merchandise is remanufactured. Gadgets that have been repaired are not dismantled like hot cakes. The discount on them reaches 60%. As a rule, the price tag will always truthfully indicate that the equipment has been repaired.
Is it worth buying digital technology at discounts?
A lot of gadgets that were previously not available due to the high price can be purchased at an affordable price thanks to the markdown. For example, a scuff on the lid of a smartphone can be easily covered with a cover and a new device will be in your hands, and a wallet that has not lost much weight in your pocket.
The only thing worth thinking about when making a purchase in discount centers is a relatively short period of warranty service, about 6 months. Otherwise, all the shortcomings are obvious.
