Abt Electronics Offers New Online Payment Options

Glenview, Illinois (PRWEB) July 31, 2008

Abt Electronics now offers new online payment options to make shopping online for electronics easier with Abt financing, PayPal and delayed billing options.

Abt financing allows customers to purchase products on Abt.com or in the Glenview, Illinois store using an Abt Card offered by GE bank. Customers do not have to pay an annual fee for the card and have eight different financing options available to choose from. Abt financing will enable customers to manage accounts online, as well as benefit from savings opportunities.

Also new to Abt Electronics is the addition of PayPal online payment services. With PayPal, Abt customers can shop online, and pay directly from their checking account or their credit card with complete security. Since account information is stored in PayPal, checkout is quick and easy. For Abt customers who wish to defer payment, a Bill Me Later option can be selected (subject to credit approval) where customers can be billed and have the option to pay in full or make regular payments.

The new billing options are just in time for back-to-school shopping. Abt Electronics recommends the following products for high school and college students returning to school this fall:

Digital Cameras

As the new school year approaches, a digital camera is a great way for students to keep track of good times throughout the academic year. Digital cameras come in a variety of sizes, styles and price ranges for the casual snapshot taker to the budding yearbook photographer. Abt Electronics carries top camera brands including Canon, Nikon, Sony, Olympus and Panasonic and has an expert, knowledgeable sales staff available to answer product-specific questions.

iPods

No school year would be complete without students roaming the halls with iPods. More than just a music player, an iPod allows students to download educational podcasts and share important information with friends and fellow students. They can also store photos and electronic books. Abt Electronics has all the latest iPods available, with prices starting at $ 47 for the 1GB iPod Shuffle on sale for back to school.

Dorm Fridges

There are lots of things that can make an otherwise stark dorm room homey and more comfortable: pictures of family and friends, a few favorite mementos and compact cooking appliances to make meal time a snap during busy study sessions. The most essential is a dorm fridge to store everyday necessities and cafeteria leftovers. Abt offers a wide selection of dorm fridges to fit even the "coziest" of dorm rooms.

Laptops

More schools are turning to digital and on-the-go technologies to teach students in and out of the classroom. Laptops can be an amazing tool for students who need to use computers in the classroom or participate in off-site study groups. Abt Electronics offers popular laptops and notebooks for sale including Sony Vaio, Apple MacBook and MacBook Pro to help students learn on the go.

About Abt Electronics

iResQ Offers Used/Broken iPhone Buyback

Olathe, KS (PRWEB) August 4, 2008

As millions of gadget lovers buy Apple's new 3G iPhones, millions are left wondering what to do with their old iPhones. Even if an iPhone is not functioning, iResQ, a company that repairs iPhones, iPods, and Apple computers, salvages used iPhones.

In order to receive a quote, owners of used iPhones can fill out an iPhone purchase form on iResQ's website.

After sending contact information, the iPhone type, the physical condition and any existing problems, iResQ will then contact the individual to offer a current purchase price. All contacts and stored data will be destroyed to prevent future access.

"This buyback program serves a twofold purpose," says Brian Buffington, iResQ's general manager. "We get to relieve consumers of their unwanted iPhones and prevent hazardous waste from entering landfills by recycling rechargeable batteries."

iResQ is partnered with The Rechargable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC), which assists in recycling the thousands of used batteries iResQ receives each month. As a participant in its "Call2Recycle" program, iResQ separates the used batteries and sends them to the RBRC, where their primary components can be reclaimed to make new rechargeable batteries and stainless steel products.

iResQ also refurbishes quality parts of the unwanted iPhones to repair other iPhones. The rest of the unwanted iPhone parts are also sent to RBRC for reusing or repurposing.

Again, owners looking to sell a used or broken unit can fill out iResQ's iPhone purchase form.
