There are some issues about which one is more convenient and cheaper to buy things between big companies and small companies. For me, if I am going to buy things that will not be broken right away, I will surely go in big companies. For the reason that they had proven their credibility to their clients. Although I can still buy certain items in small companies.

I buy from both big companies because it's usually cheaper but if I have the change I buy from small ones too often small companies offer better quality products and a nice package along the way

I do purchase from big companies because I know the bigger benefit since it's usually cheaper you would be rewarded more as a repeated customer so I like the big companies

I would also change my mind if the small companies produce the same products with the big companies. I mean they need to have the same quality in this sense. I do believe that some companies are trying to top up the big companies' products.

That depends on the product I buy. For big household appliances, health care products, I prefer to buy from big companies because they are more reliable and can offer better after-sales service. If I am just buying some basic stuff like towels, casual clothing, I don't mind buying from small companies.

The only thing that matters for me in the situation is actually getting exactly what I want and not minding from the kind of company I purchase it from; whether is a big or small company.

There are things you could buy in big companies and some you could buy in small companies. One thing that sure is that it not everyone that could have access to buy things in big companies. You must be a wholesaler and have huge amount of money to start. But in small companies like retailership, you could get access to buy products.

I mostly don't look at the places I buy my items as special as other people may think of but only ensuring that the products quality is outstanding and legit.

It depends on my budget. Buying in big companies is not important to me. There are small companies selling quality products at a fair price. Those big companies have sky rocketing prices.

When I'm about to buy an item, the first thing I pay attention to is the quality, the price of the item, and also the taste and style of the item. It's not the size of the company. There is no guarantee that large companies will always produce high-quality goods, or if the delivery system is not good, goods are piled up and exposed to hot sunlight will also be damaged. There are also many small companies that maintain quality and provide good service to customers.

sometimes the place to buy depends on the product one want to buy. For big household appliances or products buying from big companies is better you would get exactly what you want

Agree, it is not defined in selling and buying that those big companies are selling good and high-quality products than small companies. I like to disprove that idea because there are small companies selling quality products too.

You have a point. As long as they provided what the people want, then there is nothing to worry about which companies that they will buy these things. There are some small companies can cater the needs of the clients.

Yeah I get your point. you can keep buying your products anywhere whether known and big company or a small one, but the thing should be about quality and affordability.

I prefer to buy things from small companies while their prices don't vary too much, with the intention of helping their economy. But if the price is much different, then I choose a large company, which is sometimes cheaper.

There are certain parameters I set out to primarily consider when I want to buy a particular thing. It could be quality or cost effectiveness. And any organization that satisfies that parameter big or small would be patronized.

Very true, everything all boils down on one's buying power, companies will only agree to sell to individuals if they're buying in bigger quantities and they will also sell it in discounted price, that's one of the benefits and also sometimes it comes with guarantee and warranty.
