i know there are so many e-commerce site there which sell specialized items like books but it is one site where everything is consolidated and presented in an excellent manner. I particularly like the feature people who visited this also visited and people who came to this product finally bought. It gives me a such a variety of choices to make my decision!

i use to buy all of my text books from amazon because all of them were cheaper than books store and some websites.

I've had good luck shopping from there. Though now I use Ebay, since a lot of stuff I need isn't available through Amazon. Wigs and theater makeup and things like that. But everything I bought through Amazon arrived on time, in good condition, and was exactly as described.

For books I now prefer Barnes & Noble.com. Their prices are cheaper, and if you join their club you get an extra 10% off of everything. They have a good selection of both new and used books, and shipping is free if you buy over $25. I have also used Amazon at times, and haven't had a bad experience- it's just that they seem to be a bit more expensive.

I feel that it is one of the best places to geta good deal, although I like Overstock.com; I have used Barnes and Noble(bn.com)in the past and they were pretty good, but I should look more into comparing prices and all.

I love Amazon and buy nearly everything online there. With their affiliate relationships, I can find nearly everything I need, including groceries. I have always had great luck with them.

I wouldn't say it's the *best* online site to buy from, but it is pretty handy. They have some many products available, especially with third-party stores selling through them, that it is often hard to choose something if you're just browsing! So far I have had good experiences with them, however.

I definitely think it is. They seem to have everything. The only one that comes above Amazon would be Ebay, but I don't think you could really consider them a store. What I also like about Amazon is that people can sell their used things, so you can get the item new or used. It's a very nice website, with wonderful selection. They almost always have what I'm looking for. Shipping is fast! It always has been. They also have really great sales on stuff!

I like it cuz it is secure and arrives just according to the timing you would like it to arrive. What I would like it to improve in is having the latest books and Cds once it is released, as well allowing to deliever all the products that it offers to be deliverd all around the world, as I am living in Oman I cant order dresses cuz they do not deliver it here.
