    So after buying something online. I thought I'd try and research wherher or not it has become more widely accepted. I was wondering how many of you guys have bought somethin off the internet before. As in from an online store/ebay. not local exchange. If not what are some reasons you haven't? Personally I have bought it before but i hadnt until last year. Reason why I didnt was because I didn't feel safe putting my credit card information out. I'm just curious. tell me
     
  2. i think everyone here has. also you can use paypal etc or top-up credit cards like i use when i dont use my debit card

    i go ebay for stuff you cant really get ripped for.
    say phone case, toy, etc.
    ebay jibs ppls buying electronics unless the sellers are local.
    my opinion though.,

    Shopping online is much cheaper than shopping in a store. Down side is that you have to wait for it.

    i just bought 2X RCA 3 port separators, Camera case, flash light and a list of other random items.
    i believe that the only thing with online shopping. ebay in particular is.
    DON'T BUY:
    -Flash memory/ Memory Cards/ Mp3 players. i bought one of each. all memory hacked =.= all claimed to be 8 gb, all were 1 gb each.
    -branded items especially from china. some sellers borrow ppls address and claim item is in UK/USA/Aus etc. and are usually fake. unless you check out the seller and see that its a genuine seller who sells random crap and little stuff.

    PLEASE TAKE AS GUIDELINE ONLY =P

    I have to say I do e-shop a lot. Looking for bargains if I really can't be bothered to go out or all my money is in the bank and I am that lazy to take the money out haha.
    I tend to use trusted and major sites that is very well known but I don't use Ebay and Amazon because I can sometimes not gather whether the person is being legit or not so I avoid it to be on the safe side + I don't have a paypal account.

    My grandma is always home so she signs for the things I buy online. The UPS guy knows her by name. Apparently, his (UPS guy) name is Mark. Has a wife and 3 kids ages 8, 10, and 11.
