The concept of speciality Malls and Stores saves you a lot of time and energy and when run by some respectable and trusted business houses you do tend to get a comfortable feeling about the whole thing.
This comfort level is especially of great utility when such a place deals in the "aaj-yeh-kal-naya" gizmos business with its notorious and ever blooming grey market with different shades and volatility in prices.
CHROMA, from the house of TATAs, stands solid in this dynamic and starkly competitive business with shear capital force and delivers to the Consumer:
Very very comfortable snazzy shopping environment.
Direct Feel so necessary for properly evaluating contemprory / alternate products
3. A truly Large range of products giving a comprehensive overview of available products over price ranges.
4. A great diversity of products eg. mobile batteries to N95, plugin cables to 40 inch LCDs & Plasmas, consumables to state of art pentium/amd computers, a virtual Laptop mini Mall / trade show, ipods to largest imaginable Consumer Durables.
All under one roof.
- Almost professional, well behaved, patient stores attendants.
Now all this comes at a wafer thin extra on the price. So though the prices are competitive and reasonable they are by no means the best buys in town. And you would definitely get a cheaper deal at some smaller stores.
I must also admit that I have started from home with a fixed purchase idea and returned from chroma without buying a thing, postponing my purchase, thats what a large range does to an already poor decider like me.
Sometimes the confusion eventually makes you end up spending more for only a few aditional features.
Sometimes when so many things are suddenly splashed in front of you there is always the grave chance of making a mistake like I did when bought a Motorola battery for SLVR 7 instead of one for my V3i and was shocked at my blunder only when I tried to insert it in the V3i.
I have not yet purchased anything on any finance scheme so I do not know that area to offer any comments.
But whenever you want to make a hi value researched purchase you have a pestfree, patient store with all the research possibilities to help you decide. Similarly when you want to make a quick purchase with a clear decision Chroma is a great place to buy it.
Parking etc. is limited.
You have to leave your belongings at the entry and return to it for retrival, now this could mean walking back a good 75-100 mtrs distance between the entry and exit, and you can marvel at the magnificient Chroma store during such walk.
