I may be missing something. I mainly buy tools and parts for things that I am repairing.

However, comparing products and learning about what I am going to buy is part of the fun of shopping for me.

Comparing products is very subjective and you have to learn about them to be able to understand and make comparisons in the first place.

I really wouldn't want an agent or a human doing it on my behalf as they don't understand my needs.
