The popular French electronic commerce website of Price Minister was first established in a former Paris 19th century airship factory in 2000. During the past decade, Price Minister has become France's second most popular online shopping site, with an average of over 23 million monthly visitors, many of whom use Price Minister discount codes.
Price Minister was originally created by a five member French team to connect online sellers and buyers. This third party website promises full payments to sellers and full refunds to buyers who receive either damaged items or no delivery at all.
Most products purchased with Price Minister discount vouchers are heavily discounted books, video games, music, and films. However, the company has also branched into clothing, baby related items, outdoor gear, and office equipment sales. There are now a number of different Price Minister websites dedicated to vehicles, real estate, and travel; most of these are based in France.
The United Kingdom Price Minister website was acquired by Play.com in 2011, with UK customers offered the opportunity to transfer their Price Minister UK e-accounts to their bank accounts prior to the termination of the site at the end of 2011.
