Frequently Asked Questions
How can you compare so many products?
Some aspects of our information collection are automated, while other parts require manual work. We have a big team manually collecting information and working hard to make sure you as a consumer get the most relevant information about products, retailers, tests and prices.
Do you sell any products?
No. Beyond School Supply is simply an information service. We help you find the best products at the lowest price. It is the retailers we link to that sell the products, not Beyond School Supply. Please check the ratings other customers have given the retailer before you make a purchase.
How are prices updated?
Most prices are automatically updated at least once a day. For a lot of retailers, prices are updated more often than that. However, Beyond School Supply does not guarantee that prices are correct. It is therefore important that you double-check the price on the retailer’s website before completing a purchase to ensure that the price you have seen on Beyond School Supply is current and correct.
How do you compare the prices for a product?
Beyond School Supply strives to be able to display all prices available to you. We display prices regardless of whether or not a retailer is a customer of Beyond School Supply. Retailers are sorted with the lowest price excluding shipping at the top as standard and then in ascending order.
Some retailers may, for technical or resource reasons, miss shipping cost information in our listings. These are then listed in the list with the text “Delivery unknown”. You can always check the retailer’s site yourself for information on shipping costs.
But there are a number of exceptions that are worth knowing. Beyond School Supply compares million of products from thousands of retailers and strives to compare as many products as possible. But there are still many products that we have not yet been able to price compare. These products still appear on Beyond School Supply as they may be products you are looking for. If several retailers sell the same product of this type, they may not be sorted in order with the lowest prices excluding shipping at the top.
How can Beyond School Supply list so many retailers?
Beyond School Supply has a technical solution that matches the available products, retailers and prices, for both online retailers and some physical retailers. Some aspects of our data processing are automated, while other parts require manual work.
