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 ... ...just £1. At first I thought she was going a bit mad - after all, what company can afford to sell bikes at such a ridiculously low price? Price Drop TV - that's who!
Who are Price Drop?

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 ... ...greatest deals on the planet?
Good question. Shopping via the television is a relatively new format which those without satelitte or cable may not be totally accustomed to. But the chances are, if you have the technical know-how to find this review, the premise of selling a product through the TV isn't entirely lost on you.
Airing between 8am and 1am, Price-Drop TV provides short snappy bargains in the format of a uniform price Dutch auction. Unlike ...

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 ... ...Something for everyone!
price-drop.tv is on 17 hours a day seven days a week between 8.00am and 1.00am You do have to be over 18 to use this home shopping channel Okay so this is how it works.
A item will come up, you will see a guide price of the item, quantity they are selling and the price drop price it is at. You will have a number to ring at the top of the screen, you obviously dial the number and all you do is press 1 to confirm your item ...

THE PROCUCTS
This is quite a good shopping channel, they sell a variety of things these include clothing, cutlery, crockery, bedding, ornaments, toys, CD's, games and loads more.
I have bought a coat for £15, a set of 6 mugs for £10 and a digital camera for £50 from Price Drop and they have all be of good quality. The coat was a winter coat with fur around the collar and cuffs, you know the type I mean, it was thick and warm, exactly as described, ... ...a half so it is lasting quite well too. The mugs are wedgewood, so good quality as described, and the camera for the price I paid was great, it has all the modern functions including zoom and video functions and included loads of software and a memory card.
HOW IT WORKS
Basically the presenter starts telling you about a product, eg a coat, and in the corner of the screen it will tell you how many are in stock and how much it is, as the presenter ...

Advantages: Great savings to be made, quick and easy to buy 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! (Sorry but 18ct gold has no place on a toaster – far better around the neck, finger or wrist.) You can also find price-drop.tv online at www.price-drop.tv, here you can view ... ...wish.
So how does price-drop.tv work? The host will show an item, for example a remote control toy digger. At the top left of the screen you will see a guide price, say £45 that is either the rrp or the average of prices found elsewhere. You will also see a telephone number; this number is exclusive to the item being shown. Below the guide price is the quantity of items in the price drop, this varies from five up to 150 items. Below the quantity ...
