do you buy a lot of stuff online i do with books for school and some other mis elecronics but im always worried that something will go wrong like get shipped broken not what i wanted all that kind of stuff
I buy online quite a bit. Books, shoes, cloths, gagets, etc..it is scary. Always keep your confirmation or order number until you receive your order. Make sure you know who the shipping company is and try and get a tracking number. I also save all e-mails until my order is complete. And get phone numbers. Most companies will work with you. They want you to get your order. It's bad for their online business if you don't.

I buy most of my grandsons gifts on line. That way my son can help me pick them out and it saves a trip to the post office. I buy myself something every now and then.

I shop and sell online all the time, mostly though Ebay and Amazon.com.  I have had nothing but good experiences.

I buy things online all the time. Even when I pay to much for something and find a better deal afterwords I still feel fine with it. I always feel ripped off when I buy things from a store for one reason or another.

I tend to do my online shopping at the big companys. If I want to buy an item elsewhere online I do a little research on the store by searching their name  in the search engine, look at reviews etc... Then I take the plunge if it has a good history. You have to be careful but at least there are easy ways to research before you make a decision and look up return policies for any product you purchase. It may come in handy.
