How we write store guides

Store guides are built from what each store publishes: its catalog, prices, shipping and returns pages, and company details. We say so when a store doesn't publish something.

Where the facts come from

We read the store's own website: product listings and prices, policy pages, contact and company information. Prices change often, so treat any price in a guide as a guide, and confirm it on the store's site.

No scores

We don't give stores a star rating, because we haven't bought from every one of them. Guides describe and compare instead, and point out what to check yourself.

Keeping guides current

Each guide shows the month it was last updated. If a store changes its policies, we update the guide when we next check it, or sooner if you tell us.

Money

Some links are affiliate links. Stores can't pay to be listed or to change what a guide says. See our disclosure.
