I differ from you, I don't like ordering online any more and if a few baht more buying locally, I'll do that instead as I can see what we are getting.

I don't use these shopping services as a way to save money. (I actually spend MORE money.) More as an easier way to shop for things I don't need in a hurry. They are often cheaper in the 20Baht Shops as no shipping is involved.
But like your wife, I too LOVE TO BUY online, and often just peruse the sites looking for 'toys' to play with! Maybe a new pair of dikes or a set of Torx wrenches, maybe USB extension cord or fish food. I love it, and as long as I don't get too carried away, lots of fun!

TCL, Hisense🤔...? Check the reviews. Buy a reputable brand like Hitachi or LG, it'll save you a lot of trouble.

Hisense is awful, I already have one, not cold enough.

TCL 75" tv is amazing, best tv I've ever owned.

Samsung fridge worked well, but the metal surface appeared to be cardboard painted with metallic paint, which wore through by the handle looking awful.

LG fridge was great, but failed suddenly within 3 years so not worthwhile.

I'll post what the TCL fridge is like if/when it arrives.

I'm a little confused why a shop would offer the same product at 3 different prices in less than 18hrs. I was happy with the original sale price so what are they up to?

Likely different sellers. Lazada and Shopee are portals hosting individual competing sellers, just like going to a market and browse different stores selling same products. Remember always to check delivery cost — sometimes a smaller product with a cheap price is more expensive when delivery is added — and warranty, if sold without warranty the price might also be cheaper.

Also worth to check seller ratings and reviews. And be aware, if the guarantee is offered by the seller, it might be more difficult, than when a product is bought in a local shop, for a fridge like Power Boy, HomePro, Global House, BigC, and Lotus's, or whatever is available. Any warranty claim to an oline seller, might end as being your own problem to solve.

Unhappy with my latest fridge, Hisense 8.8Q (5,200bht).

Emergency purchase last Sept when my LG unexpectedly failed.

Wasn't very good, a bit too small and didn't get cold enough.

So browsing Shoppee last night and saw the TCL 4 door 14Q for 9,600bht in the sale, got distracted and went to bed without ordering. This morning woke up and looked to see if it was still on sale, it was but price now 9,200bht and ordered. Midday, and looked to see if my order progressing, immediately a popup appears offering the same fridge for 8,400bht. So I cancel my order and reorder at the new price.

Shoppee must be the worst ever company, they just don't deserve to stay in business. I have tried to sign up to them so many times over the last two years and all they have done was put every obstacle in my way.
