Preface[edit]
First things first ;-)
- This is by no means a complete list of online shop alternatives made to avoid buying at Amazon.
- But if you're interested in electronics, do it yourself (DIY) items and so on - maybe, you can give those shops a try.
- Nowadays Amazon is more or less the monopolist for online shopping and one of the oligopolists for cloud computing (together with Google and Microsoft).
- In my personal opinion this should have an end, therefore I try to avoid them whenever possible.
It's also important that:
- I get no money at all for listing those online shops
- none of the URLs below are so called "affiliated links"
- those URLs are primarily focused on online shops in Austria (or Germany)
- this is no real marketing at all for those shops ;-)
But I've used all of them at least once for my personal shopping, and they convinced me in terms of price, delivery and service.
Shop Alternatives[edit]
- Price Comparison:
- https://geizhals.at
- I use Geizhals for searching for the best prices, but I also look here for shops located in Austria.
- Electronics / PC components
- https://haym.info
- https://www.mylemon.at
- Both shops are located in Austria, and like in the ones listed below there's no need to create an account. So it's possible to buy as a guest here, too.
- At mylemon you can also get electrical tools like drilling machines, etc.
- "Smart"Home electrics
- https://www.elektroshopwagner.at/
- https://www.elektrowelt-austria.at/
- If you're looking for KNX equipment like sensors and actors (e.g. for BJ) those shops might fit your needs - both shops are located in Austria.
- The prices there are way better than on Amazon or Ebay.
- Cables, fuses and many more can be found here:
- https://www.gottwald.at/
- Here you get very good service and real good prices, too!
- => So don't let your local electrician shop fool on you ;-)
- Household appliances
- https://www.sopo.at/
- I bought some Siemens household appliances for our kitchen there, and a good colleague of mine enjoyed the experience with this shop, too.
- Solar / plumber equimpment
- https://www.sani-flex.de/
- It's not that easy to get equipment online for e.g. the solar heating system, so this shop is really helpful.
- By the way, using sun energy is cool, no electricity/wood or heating oil needed anymore. Almost zero CO2 :-)
- Tools:
- https://www.contorion.at/
- I've to admit that I really like to make things on my own, for example wooden lamps, speakers, electronic components and a lot more.
- Therefore I need a lot of tools, and here this shop comes in perfectly ;-)
- ...many more to come, please stay tuned...
