View Full Version : Do you buy on-line? John 17-08-2003, 19:48 I brought my digital camera on-line because you can't get it cheaper in shops. *Twinkle* 17-08-2003, 20:08 I bought a bra from the la senza sale on the website. That was only because I went into the shop and they said they weren't putting any of the bra's in my size on the sale. Got a good service from them aswell. BAZZO 17-08-2003, 20:09 I bought a video recorder via Comet on-line.It was a few quid cheaper than the shop but I still have no idea how it works. DaBouncer 17-08-2003, 20:11 I buy loads online. Usually DVD's! Lindseyw 17-08-2003, 20:13 bought straighters on line and books dvds etc t020 17-08-2003, 21:08 Originally posted by DaBouncer I buy loads online. Usually DVD's! feel free to buy them via my website, thus earning me some nice commissions. I could even split them with you. halevan 19-08-2003, 08:34 I do not buy on line because they want to know my visa card number and I am not prepared to give it, I could have bought a digital camcorder £100 cheaper from a place in Paris, but they would not accept the payment any other way. They don't trust me and I do not trust them, it is sad, but a fact of life. Zamo 19-08-2003, 09:44 I buy everything online... TV, home cinema, bikes, digital camera, flights, train tickets, theatre tickets, dvd's, office furniture and equipment, etc., etc. I've never been ripped off and I'm not too worried about it even if it does happen in the future. The credit card company will almost always bear the cost of any fraud. If they didn't then everyone would stop using their cards and they'd be out of business. Classic Rock 19-08-2003, 10:02 I'm a regular ebayer, I also buy insurance, books and clothes online. I've never had a problem. takumi 19-08-2003, 10:25 yeah i buy online.. so far i have had no problems :D Jules Student 19-08-2003, 11:44 I'm with Zamo on this one - I buy loads online. It's often much cheaper. I love booking holidays on line, you can look at all the options available before making a decision - much better than going to a travel agent where they just 'go off on one' as soon as you mention any destination. I organised a trip to 4 US cities with hotels and travel in between over the web and it worked a treat. mikey 19-08-2003, 11:46 you are more likely to get your card ripped off in a resturant or petrol garage than on the net. I got mine done in an indian restuarant, udesirables sell the numbers on, I didn't know anything had happened until I got a call from Fraud squad saying that someone had tried to buy £1000 of tyres over the phone. The banks have software that profiles your spend and if something crops out of the ordinary it triggers an alarm. huwj 19-08-2003, 12:59 xxxxxxxxxxx Tom in Bradway 19-08-2003, 13:13 I don't think online fraud is too much of an issue for consumers these days. I agree with Mikey, there's far much chance of somebody ripping your number off in a shop. Even if you do get stung the chances of the bank not absorbing the cost is really slim. I buy online regularly, E-Bay especially! Lickszz 09-09-2003, 23:51 Yes, I do buy online quite often. I do try to buy from places in the UK if possible though. |
