I have not purchased on amazon still, but I am going to purchase in few days. Amazon is like ebay.com.

I purchase from amazon and I purchase online. I usually buy games online, because it is always cheaper than you buy it in store. Same as some electronic components.

I regularly buy many things from Amazon, books, electronics, photographic and other things. They are an extremely reputable site. You have to be aware that there are three kinds of sellers on Amazon: Amazon themselves, Amazon Traders and Private Sellers. I have bought from all and find that Amazon are very keen to uphold their standards as a site. If there is a problem with a Trader, then Amazon's support system will do their best to assist and a Trader can be removed if their is evidence that they are not abiding by the standards that Amazon set.
I also sell on Amazon (as a Private Seller) and have a small list of books from which I make sales about once a month. Their charges are quite high but if one chooses carefully and sets prices accordingly, it is not difficult to make a profit.

To sell things successfully as an Amazon Affiliate, it's best to have a blog/website (preferably on a particular subject) that gets good traffic. If you review or recommend items that can be found on Amazon (and include an affiliate link, of course) you will be much more likely to make some sales.
Of course, getting good traffic to a blog is another story and an art in itself (there is plenty of information on that available online). You will always get better sales, however, if you promote something specific and write in such a way as to give people a compelling reason why they should buy a particular thing.

I like Amazon and I have bought from it many times. Usually I will buy books because it offers a nice discount. And the delivery fee will be free if you purchase over a certain amount. Besides books, I also bought the toys and cosmetics from Amazon.
I love China

i rarely purchase anything online. the last time, it was a perfume which i purchased off ebay.com from my earning from ciao.though i agree that online shopping is much more fun than offline ones.
