Hello Dear Steemians
We all love to shop online because it saves time, gives us more options and of course while shopping we can track our steemit profile :) + have a cup of coffee or tea.

But.........
Do we see the same prices for same exact items?
Exactly! We need to find the best price!
This is why I conducted a research and compared prices for Laptops; Desktop Computers; Mouses; Keyboards; Video Adapters; Memory Cards; Power Supplies and etc.
What I did:
- I randomly chose items (Total of 15 different items)
- I identified unique serial numbers for this items
- I searched the items on 3 different online shops (ebay, amazon, bestbuy)
- I created Excel spreadsheet and entered the numbers
- I double-checked that I am comparing the same exact items
- I made a conclusion
As you may have already noticed, there is no clear leader with the best prices for all 15 items, but amazon is definitely the best option to shop for computers and computer parts & accessories.
- If one would buy all 15 items on amazon, the savings would be $716 compared to ebay and $509 compared to BestBuy.
- 10 out of 15 items are cheaper on amazon
- 2 out of 15 items are equally priced on amazon and BestBuy and are more expensive on ebay
- Only 3 items cost slightly more on amazon than on other online shops
amazon has won!
Sorry ebay and Best Buy, I will buy my new SSD on amazon.com
Thanks for reading

Keep up steeming
Hope you liked this research and if you did please comment. I would be grateful if I receive feedback.
Cheers!
