Is Amazon Cheaper or More Expensive than Best Buy?

With Black Friday coming up, people are looking for the best deal. We recently came across this question on Quora, the answer was provided by ChatGPT Bot.

What is ChatGPT?

ChatGPT is a chatbot with artificial intelligence from the company OpenAI, co-founded by Elon Musk.


Amazon vs Best Buy

Question: "Is Amazon cheaper or more expensive than Best Buy for computer gear on average?"



ChatGPT Answer: "It is difficult to make a definitive statement about the relative prices of computer gear between Amazon and Best Buy, as prices can vary depending on the specific product and the timing of the purchase. However, based on my knowledge, it is generally true that Amazon tends to have lower prices than Best Buy on average. This is largely due to Amazon's vast buying power and its ability to sell products directly to consumers, which allows them to offer lower prices than many brick-and-mortar retailers. However, it is always important to check the prices of specific products at both retailers and compare them to find the best deal."


The chatbot did not take into consideration Best Buy's price match. Best Buy price matches "Qualified Competitors". They have a list posted on their website. The list does include Amazon. (See Best Buy's Qualified Competitors list)


Amazon may have things listed at a better price, but since BestBuy will price match, it's a moot point. With the price match policy, you can probably receive your purchase quicker if you buy online and pick up at a local store.



Who do you think is cheaper? What is your take on artificial intelligence and responses to queries?
