IMPORTANT: internet shopping info YOU need to know

Posted: Sat Jan 17, 2004 1:09 pm

ok i buy a lot of stuff from the net, and I always trusted yahoo shopping, so when I looked for a product, I always bought from the store which had 5 stars. The following info is a thing i recently learned so... contiue reading.

Lets take a yahoo store for example

http://www.bestag.com/ it was rated 2 stars on the yahoo shopping page(http://search.shopping.yahoo.com/search/__yltc=s:14489115,d:14489115,sec:sort,slk:sortby,v:70;_ylt=AhjXdgJbpT.CfZ5ITFAhSz8bFt0A?p=c-211&cop=mss&test=&va=&vo=&ve=&vp=&pf=118&pt=120)

but on their site,if you scroll down, youll see they have a yahoo rating of 5 stars, bizrate certified etc...

so lets go to bizrate.com and see if they are certified.
http://shop.bizrate.com/ratings_guide/cust_reviews.xpml?mid=65597
it says that they are not certified.

my point is that if you see a store using the yahoo SEARCH engine, and it claims to be certified then go to bizrate.com and check out it it really is, and also read the customer opinions. Also, you might wanna try to use yahoo shopping to find out what ther real rating is.

Be careful when you shop, and avoid FRAUD STORES like this one. good luck.
