Looks are great, but not being able to touch your tree before buying it can be a whole lot frustrating. Even after ordering from an online store, there’s probably no guarantee you’ll get exactly what you’ve found displayed on the internet?
A couple of hacks you can follow when buying flocked Christmas tree from online stores:
- Check the reviews. Checking reviews can be very helpful when you want to make an online purchase. You get to hear right from early buyers– what’s the product like in real life? And how exactly does it work out?
Most reviewers display pictures of their Christmas trees and that give you an idea of what they look like in reality. But still, b e on the lookout for the tree branches, shape, flocking and color. Reviews give you an edge when buying blindly and saves you from dissatisfaction and worry.
- Go over the details again. Take a closer look at the pictures and comments. Go an extra mile by checking out other websites for the same tree. Again, compare reviews, pictures, price, and every other factor you find necessary to consider.
- Visit the manufacturer website. Check the manufacture’s website to get a better view of the product. Look for additional pictures, more detailed information such as tree size, weight, height, number of lights (usually, light shouldn’t be more than a hundred pieces per foot) and prices. It could be more or less expensive with discounts, free shipping or none altogether.
- Lastly, look out for discounted sales, shipping fee conditions, prices and delivery methods. Most websites offer free shipping until a certain price is exceeded. Others don’t offer free shipping at all.
One more thing, consider the type of lights for prelit flocked Christmas trees. Incandescent lights are a lot better than LED lights although LED light consume less energy than the latter.
