Power to the shopper

A search engine that crawls on line stores like Google crawls websites, that ShopWiki, the site that is revolutionising on line purchasing. Many shopping sites give results from advertisers who have paid for an entry, ShopWiki trawls anything and everything for sale on the Web.

From sports and movie collectibles to some of the latest technology, your search can contain anything that is available on the internet today.

Some of my relatives are particularly keen on military memorabilia and I am always looking for appropriate gifts at Christmas an Birthday times, but where can you shop for this type of thing securely? Some auction sites have this type of merchandise, but they are a bit hit and miss. If you need to buy a present, then you are better off going to a website that specialises in the type of present that you are after.

You can refine your search by colour, brand or by price by simply using the controls at the top of each results page. My relatives are particularly interested in British and American militaria, so I selected the ‘brand’ of ‘Allied’ which gave me a selection of very suitable books.

Along with the shopping results, there are ShopWiki buying guides where appropriate giving information related to the search that you have done, like this one to help you if you are looking to buy toys such as collectible toy soldiers.
All together ShopWiki is a first-rate resource, not only to find what you want quickly, but to give you all sorts of helpful support to make your shopping experience fun and stress-free.
