Hi Kiwijunglist!

The categories that are active are the ones you see on the start page. We are constantly working on new ones and therefore you may find products belonging to categories not yet seen on the start page. This product belongs to one of those categories that are under development. However, you may find them in PriceSpy Raw which means you may find the product but you cannot make a price comparison yet.

Search for the product:

Then click on show all to see more stores:

thank you. i did find some using the raw search earlier.

BTW - your raw search is faulty when you use the "-" sign in the search string.

I don't even bother using the new pricespy site. It's full of useless features and eye candy.

I use the mobile site (m.pricespy.co.nz) for everything - even when I'm at my desktop. It's just so much quicker and easier to use.

Tip: You are using an old version of Internet Explorer. To get a better experience Prisjakt as other websites, recommend you to download the latest version of Internet Explorer. We can also recommend any of the following alternative browsers: Firefox,Safari, Opera or Chrome. If you are at work, please contact your IT manager.

hmm been a while since I went to it, my it has changed! the above happened while i went to it at work. what is Prisjakt? or am i the only that doesn't know what it means?

Can't remember if I saw it here, but the mobile version of the site works really well on normal browsers and is much more similar to the old one

Hi wanwarlock!

Thank you for notifying us, we will take care of it!

We understand that there are wishes to be able to group the products by a criteria. In other words, one would be able to group, for example the graphics processors and only show lowest price in each group. We are working on making this possible. Here you see graphics cards grouped by processor, and we have clicked the Radeon HD4870 X2 group to list the containing products. Please have a look and let us know what you think about it.

yeah the new layout looks cool but it just takes a little bit more time to get around but compared to the HUGE awesome changes they made idk about the time.

I love the new site you can even add things to your list then pricespy will make a shopping list for you for all the cheapest places to get everything on your list its awesome!

The list of cheapest is a good bargaining tool when you go to a retailer that doesnt suck to actually buy the stuff.
