Shopping Agent Comparison

There have been attempts at an agent comparison before, but it has never been as complete or detailed as this; this is the ultimate agent comparison.

This agent comparison takes into account your country to reflect accurate shipping prices, displays the market share (for the first time), thanks to our deep understanding of the scene, and it includes a lot of details from the number of QC pics, to the working hours and app support.

Compare two agents side by side

As we're starting to build out this this comparison, we have to take the agents words for a lot of facts. We know fully well, that agents will not always tell the truth, especially when confronted with their competitors.

But we only want the truth. If you notice something that's incorrect, we beg you to let us know. Please include a way for us to get back to you and attach proof via an imgur link.
