Save Money Buy at Mercata

Written: May 30 '00

Store Rating: 4.0
Full Review
My sister told me about Mercata and I saved over $80 because she did!

For months I was looking for a specific brand and model of television, and by coincidence decided to see if Mercata had it - and they did!

I found the t.v. at Mercata for about the same price as local sales, but after investigating things further, found I could save a lot of money. Here's how I did it:

1. First time members are given $100 in Mercata money to use for up to 60% of their first purchase (I was able to use about $80 of that).

2. No sales tax!
3. No delivery fee (Best Buy wants $35).
4. Mercata doubled the manufacturer's warranty for free.
5. Because the t.v. is 27", they provide in home service (I don't have to haul it in for repairs).

If the television had been on PowerBuy, I would have been able to save even more. PowerBuy is a special program where the more people want to buy a particular item, the lower the price goes (quantity discount).

Three members in my family have now bought from Mercata and all three have been totally satisfied.
