What is mySimon?

mySimon is a comparison shopping site for almost everything: Apparel, computers, electronics, jewelry, video games, and more. We gather prices on millions of products from thousands of stores, so you can compare products and find the lowest price before you buy.

How does mySimon work?

Let’s say you’re looking for a Canon digital camera. You can search mySimon for "Canon PowerShot." You will get a list of all Canon PowerShot cameras, with prices from stores that have it in stock, like Circuit City or Best Buy. This way you can see who has the best price. We give you links directly to those sites, should you decide you’re ready to buy.

How does mySimon list merchants?

Some stores pay us a fee to be listed at the top of our search results, but you can always sort your results alphabetically by store, from lowest to highest price, or by merchant rating.

What are "mySimon Certified" merchants?

A mySimon Certified merchant participates in the CNET Certified Store Program. You can find out more information about that program here.

What are CNET Networks’ merchant listing programs?

CNET Networks delivers high-quality, lifetime customers to its merchant partners through tiered listings programs that influence shoppers in the final, decision-making stage of the buying process. These programs enable merchants to differentiate themselves from the competition, generate awareness, and build brand preference among the 15 million online shoppers who visit CNET Shopper.com, ZDNet Shopper, and mySimon.

What are the listing types?

  • Premier - Delivers maximum exposure across CNET Networks’ commerce sites with top tier position in listings and Premier access to media opportunities.
  • Preferred - Middle-tier exposure on merchant listings and Preferred access to media opportunities.
  • General - Puts your company on the map, competing with other merchants at a low cost.

What is the Certified Store Program?

The mySimon/CNET Certified Store program is designed to ensure that our users and your customers receive consistent, fair, and superior service while shopping online.

The mySimon/CNET Certified Store program revolves around a five-star rating system. Stars are based on four sets of criteria. For a store to receive a star in any criteria set, it must meet all of the requirements in that particular set. Star ratings will be reviewed on a rolling basis and are, therefore, subject to change at all times. In addition, failure to adhere to the attached "CNET Code of Conduct" will result in rating reduction and/or suspension.

If you have been rated by another CNET Networks property, your rating will automatically appear on mySimon. Likewise, ratings will be uniform throughout all CNET properties.
