Welcome to the online shopping jungle!

5 star rating

Every day computer user, an online shopper, a bargain hunter, budget conscious, experienced parent, noticing the details, too busy to make beds
Pros

    Cart saves products to purchase, Great Customer Service, able to buy used--eBay competitor, tons of inventory, one stop shopping for some, a million categories

Cons
    800#s to contact is burried, shipping can be wicked high, finding what you want can take a while, returns are a hassle

Long ago and far away in another galaxy, I didn't like shopping online. I wanted to see and feel things for myself.  Sure, I knew about Amazon.com and would look things up but for me it was more like a wikipedia, so I could learn about books and products before I bought them.  But I've come a long way baby since then and now there is so much more about Amazon.com that I like. 

What do I like about Amazon.com?

  • find out about books, products, toys, and even groceries before I buy them 
  • create a wishlist so my dear husband knows what I really do want - and I can share it safely and securely with others 
  • find out information about items for sale 
  • sell my own items 
  • read reviews on items 
  • easy to use 
  • can become an affiliate and easily set up my own store on my own site 
What don't I like about Amazon.com?
  • very few discounts or special offers even the clearance section is limited
  • pricing 
  • easily distracted by their "points" to other products or suggestions that others who bought this also bought that 
One year I was confined to bed during the holiday season due to a pregnancy. Without Amazon.com and Ebay, no presents would have been purchased. Amazon makes my life easier in many ways, saving me time, if not always money.
