  • Shopping.com’s First Television Commercial Packs A Powerful Punch For Potential Consumers

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Nov 18, 2003
    Pros: Interesting commercial, impacting and grabs your attention.
    Cons: Will be ignored if repeated too often.

    Summary: I am sure that I am not alone when I say that the merger between Epinions and Dealtime left a lot of community members wondering what path the site would take, how this would effect the long standing members of the community and how the merger ... read more

  • Sorry... Enough Self-Directed Violence in the World... Ad Could Have Been Positive.

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Mar 17, 2005
    Pros: Makes an adequate point about what is known as 'Buyers Remorse'.
    Cons: Leaves me wishing the creators could have shown 'Buyers Remorse' in a more positive light.

    Summary: Hi. I came looking for a blender and a juicer... and clicked-through to the advert just to see it... But I probably will not return, if this ad represents the level of sophomoric humour to be found at Epinions.com and Shopping.com. We live in a ... read more

  • Shopping.com Ad Is Packed With Humor

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Nov 27, 2003
    Pros: Great message delivered with humor
    Cons: None

    Summary: My son was the first to pay attention to this Shopping.com Ad. I soon realized it was about the site I am affiliated with. Then, I started paying more attention to it. The ad made a 4-year-old buy laugh his heart out. "What's wrong with this guy?" he ... read more

  • What No Hugh Hefner! - The Shopping.com Ad

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Nov 25, 2003
    Pros: Comedy, gets the point across.
    Cons: Although it didn't bother me...there was some violence.

    Summary: I think it's a little interesting that Shopping.com's first advertisement centers around a digital camera. These products are the bane of my existence for I have never had a very good shopping experience when trying to find a good camera at a ... read more

  • Give them the brains to not include Carrot Top.

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Nov 18, 2003
    Pros: Gets the point across well.
    Cons: Slapstick violence is not original and may turn off some.

    Summary: So now Shopping.com has launched its first ad. This represents the second attempt by Epinions at TV advertising since its unsuccessful earlier attempt (I don't remember the specifics. But I do recall that one of the commercials featured a loony with a ... read more

    Pros: Gets right to the point and stays there.
    Cons: Has slapstick really made that big of a comeback?

    Summary: If you are looking for a commercial that will take you to a whole different level of slapstick then this is the commercial for you. To be fair it does get it's point across that you should compare prices before buying, but you have to struggle through

  • Much delayed viewing of terrific commercial

    Rated Show by the Epinions community
    Feb 21, 2005
    Pros: Very amusing and entertaining commercial.
    Cons: Should have been more widely aired, to assure that I would see it sooner!

    Summary: I'm afraid I was quite tardy in my discovery of epinions.com and shopping.com (and my pockets are emptier as a result), thus I had not seen your commercial until this evening. It's wonderful! We've all had those moments when you want to smack yourself

  • The Shopping.Com Ad was a pleasure to watch!

    Rated Show by the Epinions community
    May 21, 2004
    Pros: Fun to watch! Not loud, not overdone and it brings out a good point.
    Cons: n/a

    Summary: I'm looking forward to seeing it on television, but I watched it this morning on the Shopping.Com site and enjoyed it, using my Real Player. The longer segment involves price comparisons on a Digital camera, with the original purchaser getting upset

  • stupid ad

    Rated Show by the Epinions community
    Apr 17, 2004
    Pros: pros? you mean I have to find something positive about this stupid ad?
    Cons: no humour, no real creativity, just a boring and aggressive ad.

    Summary: this ad is really really stupid, isn't it? did it flop? and, btw, I don't think it's so nice to make fun of people on

  • Shopping.com Ad: it hurts to pay too much

    Rated Show by the Epinions community
    Feb 23, 2004
    Pros: The translation from wounded pride to a wounded body will be funny to most viewers
    Cons: The physical pain seems too over the top.

    Summary: My interpretation of the commercial is that it hurts you to find out you've paid too much for a product. I've had the experience of sitting next to someone on an airplane who just revels in telling me they paid only $100.00 for a ticket I paid $500.00

    Pros: comparison of products prices, features, other products and product ratings.
    Cons: slow Internet connection, pages load slow.

    Summary: I haven't used any of the products in these commercials, but the commercial in itself has an impact on the way people shop for products nowadays. You can easily go out to a local store and buy something right off hand. But if you're looking for the best

    Pros: The special effects are great. Hopefully there will be a string of similar commercials.
    Cons: You might not remember the name of the website.

    Summary: I just watched the new ad, and bravo! In one of the last true art forms left in the world, television commercials that is, Shopping.com's contribution is indeed one to keep an eye out for. Summing up almost every feeling we have all had just after what

  • Shopping-Related Injuries: Non comparison shopping

    Rated Show by the Epinions community
    Nov 22, 2003
    Pros: A good, humorous exposure of value of on-line comparison shopping; appeals to average shopper.
    Cons: Though battering of the guilty shopper should be exaggerated, it is a bit over-exaggerated.

    Summary: Cents-sensitive shoppers know the value of comparison shopping. With the internet just a double-click away, on-line shopping is the simplest way to compare prices of items that can be purchased in local stores and virtual stores. This Shopping.com Ad

  • Good, as far as it goes!

    Rated Show by the Epinions community
    Nov 18, 2003
    Pros: Amusing advert.
    Cons: Doesn't concentrate on shopping.com's unique selling point.

    Summary: An appropriate moment to write my first express review on an item that takes some 30 seconds to watch! A small group of people are in an office admiring a recent camera purchase; it turns out that the entire group purchased it and they start to

  • That commercial made ME laugh!

    Rated Show by the Epinions community
    Nov 18, 2003
    Pros: Humorous but to the point.
    Cons: None that I could see.

    Summary: I believe this commercial really gets the point across, and does it in a humorous fashion...I would have watched it and I normally channel surf during commercials. So many times, even "good" commercials fail to actually have to viewer remember the

  • Violence!!!

    Rated Show by the Epinions community
    Nov 18, 2003
    Pros: It get the name out
    Cons: Violence, Violence, Violence!!!

    Summary: I honestly do not think the ad should feature the violence. There are probably a 100 different ways to make someone feel bad for not shopping online - but I do not think, that in this day and age, using violence is the right

    Pros: Entertaining
    Cons: None

    Summary: I love the new commercial. Unlike so many other spots this one grabs your attention and keeps you engaged. I'm looking forward to seeing it again and again. I think this should really help people learn about these
