What items do you purchase online?  |
|
I just recently started buying stuffs online and I think that things are a lot cheaper online. I used to be hesitant about buying online since the postal service in my country is very slow. The only time I buy things online is when their are no stocks available here. I also prefer buying on countries near my location cause it is much cheaper to ship. Even though it is cheaper to buy online I still run the risk of the items being lost or having some defects. It is a risk I am willing to take. The items I buy online are usually for my camera. These are the items which are hard to find here in my area. How about you? what do you usually buy online?

1. learn2earn (10819) | 3 months ago | Well, I have bought some books before and it's no problem. I also bought two domain names for my websites. More than that, I purchased referrals in my ptc programs, and purchased an upgrade pack with some of them. I think that one of these days, I will be purchasing something big online. It would be wonderful I think that have purchased using our online earning.

elmasahe (332) | 3 months ago | I think buying books online is very safe. There is minimal risk and you don't have to work about your items being broken. Right now I am still a little hesitant in buying expensive things online. I always limit myself on the things I buy online. Asides from the risk of the item being broken on transit. I am also uneasy when I buy something that I haven't personally checked. Maybe as I continue purchasing online I will become more comfortable in doing my shopping online.

2. involved62 (631) | 3 months ago | I like shopping for music downloads, internet security subscription, travel tickets, sometimes jewelry. So far, I did not have any problem with shipping costs. I like buying items from companies which offer free shipping (like Amazon)on certain orders. Overstock is great as well and in addition has very low shipping costs. Once or twice, I got defective goods (probably broken along the way) but I got a replacement product pretty quickly. Refund is also not a problem.

elmasahe (332) | 3 months ago | So far I only tried using ebay and istorya.net to buy items online. I'll try using Amazon and Overstock maybe there are items I'll find there which are not available on ebay. I haven't tried receiving defective goods yet, I sure hope I wouldn't experience this cause shipping items here in the Philippines takes a very long time.

3. prashanthalva (1087) | 3 months ago | I Must Say You Do Get Into A Lot Of Problems When You Do Buy Online .. The First Problem IS You Cannot Physically Verify The Goods .. You Are At The Mercy Of The Seller .. You Can't Ask For An Exchange If Goods Are Damaged .. I Really Won't Venture This Forbidden Area Unless It Is Of Utmost Importance ..

elmasahe (332) | 3 months ago | You are absolutely right about inspecting the item before you buy it. There is no way of physically inspecting the items if you buy something online. That is why it is always better to read the comments or research about the store before buying something. Even if you did your research there are still instances wherein you will receive something below your standard or damaged goods. This is why I always limit my self in spending online. I wouldn't dare buying sensitive and expensive items online. I don't like taking to much risk in purchasing them.

4. bmorehouse1 (637) | 3 months ago | I have done a lot of Christmas shopping online in the past couple of years. It is soooo much easier! You don't have to fight crowds and many times there are no shipping charges. I have not run into any problems at this point. I have purchased shoes, power tools, kitchen items, and DVD's. I just can't even remember everything! I would recommend it. Best wishes!

elmasahe (332) | 3 months ago | I envy you, how I wish our postal service here in the Philippines is as efficient as yours there in the US. I would love to do my Christmas shopping online if only our post office could deliver it on time. Packages delivered through our post office usually takes about 1-2months and sometimes even more. There are also instances wherein the package is lost in the post office. If our post office would solve this problem I would probably shop most of these small items online, especially if its during the busy seasons.

5. vingyan06 (1254) | 3 months ago | Hello Elmasahe,
For me, I always shop online too. I shop for my kids clothes and toys. I don't shop something big and heavy, it is not worth to pay too much shipping fees while shopping online.
I admit shopping online is more hassle free and there are millions of products we can shop online, from, wallets, handbags, watches, sunglasses, sport items, mobile phones, and many many more.
I still not get to shop to expensive items online. I will worry about the risks of things getting lost or defects too.
I get a online store selling original handbags from Coach! I can see the price is selling cheaper than the retail price.
In fact, they worked closely with the manufactures and be able to ensure the AUTHENTIC branded handbags they purchased are of the high grade quality and they are not selling FAKE materials.All the bags in the website are exactly made of the top-quality materials.The bags are sent with accessories such as card,serial number,box/dust bags and booklet.
If I buy the branded handbag online, I need to take the risk on the shipping items get lost and defects again, so it is so hard to decide...

6. charlies2805 (603) | 3 months ago | I usually buy book online, especially the second hand books. The price was cheaper than the new one, of course and the service was quite good. I used to receive my ordered books on time, even if I've ever experienced late. And sometimes, the website, where the seller and buyer meet, gives us discount and makes the price even cheaper. I'm considering about buying camera/laptop online as well.=)

| 7. kevinsterm (2) | 3 months ago | Well I am also kind of new with buying things online, but I buy mostly books online because its cheap and really what kind of defects could a book have? Also my friend says amazon has good products, so I might consider buying stuff from them in the near future.

8. dorannmwin (2157) | 3 months ago | I've bought a ton of things online over the years and now I almost prefer to shop online because the prices are better and I am a lot less tempted to do spur of the moment shopping because it requires more work to find items to buy online.
My first major online purchase was my camera, but we've also bought computer parts and toys and clothes and almost anything that you can think of online. I really like the convenience of it. Your items arrive right at your door and I really don't think that I could ask for much more than that.

| 10. winiepu (36) | 3 months ago | I like buying stuffs online. It can save a lot of time and energy. You don't need to waste time in the heavy traffic or stand in the queue in the shop. I really hate waiting. Online shopping is more and more popular in the world. In the U.S. online shopping is very reliable and fast. The goods I buy online always arrive in several days. If I do not like them I can return them easily. The firms also incease the inventory turnover through setting up online shops. Anyway this technological improvement benefits both of consumers and firms.
