Buy Bargain or Buy Popular

[BuyBargain]

We always prefer to find bargain and buy big discount. But good brand and popular products seldom drop their price very fast or be the cheapest.

So question is, when I want to chose a Digital Camera from different brands with similar features, I can buy a cheap one but the review score is low or I can buy a expensive one but review rating is high.

Which way is the best choice?

I'm facing a decision whether I should remove hot and popular channel in my web site and only keep the bargain and deal channel.

Need your suggestion.

Thanks

So question is, how is this a hot deal?

 

[BuyBargain]

Answer is yes and no.

For example, Canon EOS is a popular product and its price drop from 1500 to 1300, but another similar one from other brand may drop from 1300 to 900. From the price point of view, from 1300 to 900 is better deal. However becasue Canon EOS is popular and having high review rating, it may be a good deal as well when considering the quality.

It is always hard to make decision. Right? That's why I have a differet channel for popular products, but I'm afraid that nobody has interest on it, because people always have more interest on big bargain?

Yeah, try the Off-Topic area.
(Read user reviews and only get a cheap on if you don't mind the things that other people complain about. See http://www.steves-digicams.com/hardware_reviews.html for good info)

I think that the best shopping strategy is to have a product you want to buy in mind, and wait till its price is acceptable and buy it at once. So don't consider it may be more expensive than other similar ones or its price may be cheaper in the near future.

Idea is You bought what you exactly want at the price you are comfortable with.

the question still stands: where is the hot deal?

Buy 0.5*sum(Bargain, Popular).

And in general, better to keep new threads of speculative or query nature to a minimum. It is also rather curious there is a link in your signature to the site where this particular "deal" was offered (though that link in turn points to Amazon via a referral).

Direct product links to referral based sites are not welcomed in this forum.
