A: I've been buying stuff online for years and have had all good experiences :-) Usually I only use it for stuff that I can't get locally though, as I do prefer to be able to get my hands on my purchase right away. — Marcos Drake [add comment]

A: I bought only once so far. That was a DVD from EBay. I thought it was very easy and very handy especially that i couldn't find that DVD in any shop nearby. For this one experience, it was good. — Libanus [add comment]

A: I like buying books online, but of course I'm still hesitant to send a company my personal information, credit card nr, etc. — sabine [add comment]

A: Well, if we are talking about purchasing new products, i would first read a bit about the company and then give away my personal info. If we are talking about buying second hand stuff, I wouldn't it at all, since i have had some really bad experience with that. As you can imagine, i paid for the product which never got delivered! — goran [add comment]

A: I still dont trust it, if I am honest. Although alot of people around me, bought stuff on the internet and where positive about it. I think I still need to step over a surtain line. — Asmidin [add comment]

A: personally i don't like the idea of buying things online. i want to see my product, pay for it and take it home immediately. i'm afraid i'd pay for something, and then recieve nothing or a faulty product. i have to admit i never bought something online — Sammy L. [add comment]

A: It somehow gets always more expensive than you were expecting. Further, you dont get it immediately and finally the charm of shopping is gone. — Iana [add comment]
