My name is Sam Parker, and I started Better Priced Online for a simple reason: I wanted to stop wasting time and money driving long distances to buy tools and products that were often cheaper and easier to order online.
Living in a small town in Kentucky means you learn quickly to research before you buy. Stores are far away, options are limited, and a bad purchase costs you time, fuel, and frustration. Over the years, that habit of researching carefully turned into a system I now use for every review on this site.
Better Priced Online exists to help regular people make smarter buying decisions without having to dig through dozens of websites themselves.
I Focus on Real Buying Decisions
I don’t review products for fun or to chase trends. I focus on tools and equipment people actually need for their home, garage, and garden.
Every review starts with the same question:
“Would I spend my own money on this?”
If the answer is no, I won’t recommend it.
How I Evaluate Products
I use a consistent process to evaluate every product I write about. That process includes:
- Studying real customer reviews across multiple platforms
- Comparing long-term user feedback, not just first impressions
- Looking closely at build quality, materials, and design
- Comparing price versus features and durability
- Checking warranty, customer service, and brand reputation
I don’t rely on one source. I look for patterns. If the same problems or praises keep showing up, they matter.

I Use Technical Thinking, Not Guesswork
My background in technical studies helps me look past marketing claims. I pay attention to how products are built, how they’re supposed to work, and where they’re likely to fail over time.
This is especially important for garden tools, garage equipment, and DIY tools, where durability and safety matter more than flashy features.
I break things down in simple terms so readers can understand why a product is a good or bad choice.
Pros and Cons Matter
No product is perfect. I make a point of showing both sides.
Every review includes:
- Clear pros
- Clear cons
- Who the product is actually for
- Who should avoid it
If a product has serious drawbacks, I’ll say so. Saving readers from a bad purchase is just as important as recommending a good one.
I Recommend Reputable Stores Only
Most of my links go to well-known online retailers like Amazon because they usually offer:
- Competitive pricing
- Reliable delivery
- Clear return policies
- Strong customer support
If I wouldn’t feel comfortable ordering from a store myself, I won’t send readers there.
I’m always looking for additional reputable retailers to give readers more options, but trust comes first.
I’m Independent and Honest
I’m not paid to write positive reviews.
I don’t accept free products in exchange for coverage.
I don’t copy manufacturer descriptions and call them reviews.
My goal is to provide clear, useful information that helps you decide what’s worth buying and what’s not.
Built for Real People
Better Priced Online is written for people like me:
- Homeowners
- DIYers
- Gardeners
- Anyone trying to stretch their budget without buying junk
I research so you don’t have to, and I explain things in a straightforward way without technical fluff or sales pressure.
Final Thoughts
Trust is earned over time. I don’t expect you to take my word blindly. I encourage you to read multiple reviews, compare options, and make the decision that feels right for you.
My role is to make that decision easier by giving you honest, well-researched information based on real buyer concerns.
That’s what Better Priced Online is built on.
