Abt Offers New Online Payment Options

Abt Makes Shopping Online Even Easier

GLENVIEW, Illinois, July 30, 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 www.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.

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.
