Get those Prices Dropping!
Review of price-drop.tv by
jayandfoo
Advantages: Lots of fun, wide range of products
Disadvantages: High Postage and call charges
I first encountered Price Drop TV when we purchased our Freeview box early last year. Flicking through the channels, I noticed there were a couple of Shopping channels, namely QVC, Bid Up TV and price Drop TV. I didn't really take much notice of them - the idea of sitting there with the presenters trying to sell some obscure object really didn't appeal to me.
However, I received a phone call one day from my mum who excitedly told me she had managed ...

Bargain prices and rip-off expenses
Review of price-drop.tv by
tehfincheh
Advantages: The odd genuine bargain, excellent production
Disadvantages: Isn't as rewarding for the buyer as the format sounds
With the roaring success of Freeview, the battle to conquer the television shopping market is well and truly up for grabs. It seems that not a month goes by without the introduction of a brand new retail station offering us "the finest bargains available". At the front of that market is Price-Drop TV, owned and produced by sit-up Ltd - the brains behind several sister stations, all of which aim to steal away with our hard earned dosh.
So who are ...

Last Buyer Sets The Price For Everyone Else.
Review of price-drop.tv by
btco
Advantages: Everyone pays the same price, gets delivered to your door
Disadvantages: music gets annoying, P&P a little high, £1 to call.
...id got to hear about Price-drop.tv . How addicting can this channel get? Well if you’re addicted to Ebay then don’t watch this channel. You have been warned.
The only reason I had to go have a look at this shopping shop was because a friend told me that they were selling a bike. The guide price was £299 and it MEGA dropped to a £1. How fantastic is that. Well I was hooked before id even looked at this home shopping channel.
In the first hour id ...

THE PROCUCTS

Disadvantages: waffling hosts,some people will bid on anything
...the Internet and also to price-drop.tv for Christmas shopping.
Price-drop.tv is a shopping channel found on Sky digital page 636. The channel runs daily from 8am to 1am and they sell a variety of items from watches, bracelets, toys, and baby items to 18ct gold plated toasters!

Mega Drop Flop
Review of price-drop.tv by
Lezann
Advantages: Can grab a bargain -
Disadvantages: Addictive,the postage, returns and customer services
I must sadly admit that when I first started watching this addictive shopping channel some 8 months ago on Sky Digital, I became rather self commited to tuning in when ever I got the chance! The friendly chatty hosts must have bedazzled me and tuned my mind into thinking that 'This was the place to shop for those great bargains'!!
Like everyone else, I placed an order via the telephone with a £1 charge for the call - I then realised if I registered ...

Review of price-drop.tv by
ReviewDude
Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Poor Products, Slow Delivery, High Charges
.../ Price-Drop: What's The Difference?
On Price-Drop.TV products start off at high prices and continue to fall as more people buy. On Bid-Up.TV the price goes up because people have to place a bid for the item.
How Does It Work?
You will see a list of information on the left hand side of your television screen. The first amount of money is the guide price. This is the RRP or a selection of the highest prices the company has found for ...

Price-Drop.TV and their Mega Drop month
Review of price-drop.tv by
Stainless_Steel
Advantages: Some bargains
Disadvantages: Poor customer service. Inflated guide prices
...reviews I have read on price-drop.tv all my ipurchases have so far been delivered in the advertised 7 working days. I have now noticed that delivery is being advertised as being within 10 days.
With the exception of 2 of the above items all were purchased over the website, avoiding the £1.00 telephone call charge. (though I have made several other phone calls to their premium rate line in failed attempts to make a bid). Had I been prepared to spend ...

Price Lock!!
Review of price-drop.tv by
thetoaster3
Advantages: Good value, presenters
Disadvantages: High Delivery charges
Price-drop TV is addictive. Just like it's sister channel, bid TV, price-drop TV features entertaining presenters who would do almost anything to get you to buy their products. As I type this, the channel is selling a U.S. Marshall figurine. At the moment, the price for it is £80. When I finish the review, the price for the figurine will have been slashed. Straight away, PRICE PLUNGE!! And the price plummets to £16!!
These savings (albeit on things ...

I don't buy it!
Review of price-drop.tv by
scribbelle
Advantages: fun to watch, very occasionally bargains to be had
Disadvantages: mostly tat, very high p&p
Price drop tv is an auction channel to be found on Sky digital 636 and is also accessible via cable. Unlike other auction channels, the price goes down instead of up and everybody who is sucessful pays the same price (the lowest).
Here's how it works
An item comes up for auction, let's say a "designer" ( I'll explain the "s later!) watch.
There are 75 available this auction (each auction varies)
There is a guide price for the watch, lets ...

Buy early or Late!
Review of price-drop.tv by
satyamkhurana
Advantages: Variety of products
Disadvantages: Premium call, Expensive delivery rate
"The price you see is price you pay" may be the favourite line of Pricedroptv presenters, but the fact still remains that you would actually be paying about 10 GBP more. There is no doubt that the products are good and you wont be disaapointed when the product arrives.
Though I have bought only six products from the channel, i have made sure that i pay the lowest price. I will tell you how: Have you ever noticed that the channel sells the same stuff ...

Review of price-drop.tv by
Adam160591
Advantages: Megadrops are set to stay
Disadvantages: P&P Way too high
Price-drop.tv is an excellent channel in my opinion while it doesn't have many very "great" products it does have a lot of good ones. The sunglasses are good value for money as I found out when I got some Gucci's for £1. The presenters are very funny, Nana Akua over-reacts whenever there is a megadrop, she always makes people laugh. Greg Scott is the classic "Let's make fun of myself" kind of man, He is always up for a laugh and is never in a bad ...
