qed-uk.com

Advantages: Good looking site, stock checker, comparison feature, easy and fast ordering and delivery; v. efficient
Disadvantages: Could be a bit more competitive in price, not a name that rolls of the tongue. Medium range, not a first port of call for most

...overall average score here for qed-uk.com - time to add weight to the better end off the see-saw. Though their name hardly rolls of the tongue, qed-uk.com are worth a go - at least if you find them offering a tempting price on Kelkoo or any other price matching site. I initially placed an order with applianceplanet.co.uk for a moderately cheap big brand named fridge freezer (space constraints and all that) as they had the lowest price...But no ...
...appliances like fridges, washing machines and cookers are fairly critical, if you're buying replacements anyway, so very few people will be prepared to wait too long even with the best price. Qed-uk weren't the cheapest, but not the most expensive either. It cost £39.99 for delivering this item (but both the big burly delivery men from Leeds - admitting unfamiliarity with my London area - lugged the fridge from the entrance, downstairs, and into ...

Advantages: Cheap, good range, free delivery
Disadvantages: Delivery time scales, call centres

I’m a bit of a bargain hunter, I am. Short of actually stealing things, I’ll be damned if I’m going to pay any more than I need to for anything, particularly where electrical goods are concerned. If you need convincing as to how much the price of one object can vary from retailer to retailer, flip over to www.kelkoo.com and have a look at some of the comparisons. You’ll probably be astounded. By far the cheapest deals on offer are those to be found ...
...around, the absolute cheapest seems to be through Quality Electrical Direct or QED for those of you who haven’t got long. Based in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, QED has been around for a few years now and operates a thriving business in discounted electrical goods. Customers can place orders online, over the telephone or via fax but the costs saved by negating the need for lots of stores, lots of staff and lots of overheads mean that good deals can ...

Advantages: cheap and affordable, quick delivery, wide range
Disadvantages: poor website search, unable to delete orders automatically

Introduction ************* I have heard and seen very split opinions on QED.uk.com but I decided to risk buying with them anyway and I must stress that this review is based on my opinion of the site and on the service I received while buying the "Humax PVR 8000t" from them. Prices & Money ***************** This has to be the best part of QED, the prices are really very cheap and good value for money, they state that they are up to 40% off street ...
...a mega saving of £60. These prices are really very good and if you do a Price runner search then the site is cheapest almost every time. Personally I am really thankful for the cheap prices because being a teenager I really have no money and I will do almost anything to get something for cheaper. They are not very good on the card side only accepting the standard VISA/MASTERCARD etc. sadly no SOLO, a big disappointment to me, as I am not allowed ... Read review

Advantages: Good Range, Most of it Cheaper than Larger Hi-street stores. Good Delivery Times.
Disadvantages: Stock Information Limited

It was about a year ago. I had had the Internet for about 2 months and I decided I needed some new speakers for my hi-fi (well the old ones had blown up so I was forced to buy new ones). I was looking around the larger manufactures websites (Comet, Dixons etc) to see what I could buy, but not having a credit car I knew I would have to go in store to purchase. I tried to persuade my brother to let me use his card but he did not trust on-line sites. ...
...range with good descriptions and a chance to phone orders through. I made my selection of some Mission 701 speakers (I had seen the 700 at my local specialist shop priced 139.99). I was surprised to see the 701's (RRP £159.99) for sale at £113.87. So with a quick phone call the next day I was through to a nice friendly customer services operator who was happy to take my order. She then mentioned FREE DELIVERY (which I had missed the first time on ... Read review

Advantages: Low Prices
Disadvantages: Have to wait for delivery, but they get stuff to you fast

We bought a video camera from QE-Direct last months. We chose the model we wanted then used comparison sites (www.dealtime.co.uk and www.kelkoo.com) to find the lowest price. With various models we found that QE-Direct consistently was at the top of the list when it came to price. The camera we ended up buying, a samsung, was £234 compared with £269 in the shops. We ordered the item on early in the morning and it was with us the next day, and have ...
...also free within the UK so there are no extra costs to pay. If you want to save some money, check them out - £35 is a lot of money to save just for waiting an extra day to receive your product - they have a wide range of items at prices which can be significantly cheaper than on the High Street ...
