Following These 5 Steps Will Save You Stress and Money When Choosing the Best Home Gym Seller
If you've been looking for home gyms on the Internet you've probably noticed that there are a lot of sellers.
So how do you decide which seller to buy from.
"That's easy" you say "the cheapest one of course".
Unfortunately, the cheapest may not turn out to be the cheapest in the end.
What if
.....it arrives damaged
.....it doesn't arrive
.....the wrong gym arrives
.....it arrives with some equipment missing
.....its too big
.....you suddenly need the money you spent too pay an urgent bill
.....you decide a different gym would be better
.....you decide you don't want it
Everyone has bought something and taken it home to discover there's a problem or its not want you want. If we couldn't depend on the shop we bought it from to continue a caring relationship after they get our money, it could mean money down the drain.
We must be especially careful on the Internet because most of these businesses don't have a bricks and mortar shop we can go to. That makes it very easy for them to escape their after sales responsibilities but difficult for the consumer to get the after sales service they deserve.
The good news is many Internet sellers are responsible and offer great after sales service. Home Gym Review have attempted to sort the good from the bad. We have provided links only to sellers who meet all of the criteria we consider important.
Important Criteria
-
contact information - it must be easy to find and the response time must no more than about 5 working days. We tested all of the sellers we link to and only included those that responded within a reasonable amount of time. You'd be surprised how many never got back to us at all
-
a reasonable search engine ranking - if they don't rank in the first 30 or so positions for a gym you are searching for than they are either very new to Internet marketing or they are a small time affiliate seller (kind of like a salesperson with their own website). Of course some reputable sellers may not rank so high but how do you tell which ones they are? You can't really so Home Gym Review follow that simple rule
-
at least 30 day money back guarantee - this one is very important. Be sure you are aware of their returns policy before you buy. Expect at least 30 days or more if you can get it. Especially since the for the first 2 weeks of the guarantee the gym may be in transit to your house.
-
secure credit card transactions - credit card fraud is on the rise. Never give out your credit card information unless you know it is a secure transaction
-
price matching - unfortunately you can't always be lucky enough to get this one. Some sellers have a price matching or price beating policy. This means they will match or sometimes even beat the price on any item they sell, if you can find it cheaper at a different site. Some will even refund the difference if you can find it cheaper somewhere else weeks after you bought it.
Home Gym Review consider the points above as the most important when choosing a seller.
I hope you can now see that sometimes cheapest isn't always the best choice. But if you are really lucky it can be (that is, if you find a great site that will match prices).
We made Home Gym Review for you. So we have done our best to only recommend to you the sellers we consider to be the best for each home gym we review.
Good luck.
