Pricing Info.: To: BeWhere.com (1434 ) From: moby_dick Monday, Feb 1 1999 2:14AM ET Reply # of 1672 It's a pretty site, but pretty doesn't sell on the Internet - price does. For a little comparison of prices, I picked the selection from Perfumania's "Top Sellers of the Month" listed on their site and compared with perfumeforless prices. The verdict is that 9 out of 10 selections, PRFM was higher priced (from over 3% to 18%). Only one of the men's colognes was lower (by over 9%). I would invite others to compare PRFM with other sites as well. Moby. Here are the results: Womens: PRFM PforL Curve (1.7 oz) $31.99 $28.50 Hollywood (1.7 oz) $32.99 $28.50 Shalimar (1.0 oz) $32.99 $31.50 360 (1.7 oz) $29.99 $26.00 Bvlgari (1.7 oz) $61.99 $52.50 Mens: 273 (2.5 oz) $32.99 $29.00 360 (3.3 oz) $39.99 $34.00 Cool Water (4.2 oz) $46.99 $45.50 Lagerfeld (4.0 oz) $38.99 $34.00 Polo (4.0 oz) $35.99 $39.75

I agree prices on PRFM is not worth the trouble! I checked out prices on my and my wife's favorites, Calvin Klien's Obsession for Men and Eternity for Women and both of them showed a saving of $2 only! If thats my saving, I would rather go and buy my perfume at Macys! I wish I had this info earlier. I thought PRFM would trade higher on the web site news and bought some. But I dumped them all with a small loss. Just got frustrated with the way PRFM is trading! I am out of this thread now! So much so for the PRFM-Mania!! --manish
