It seems whether I need electronics, books, household items, I gravitate to Amazon. With free shipping for items >$25 and no tax in most cases, it beats retail.
Additionally, I look to reviews for guidance and write many of them myself.
Do you buy regularly from Amazon? Do you use other retailers like Buy.com?

I buy local whenever possible. This type of retailing is ruining our country. I like to be able to look my neighbors in the eye.
I do buy from Amazon. I find their service fast. I too also like the free shipping. With gas prices now, sometimes it doesn't make sense to drive to different stores to get what I want. I mainly use them at Christmas. I also buy from Ebay.
Usually if I am getting electronics I buy from a store because if something goes wrong I don't have to have the hassle of packing up the item to return it.

We don't have anything local. I either have to drive for over an hour to get a decent selection or buy online.
I love Amazon. I also like reading the reviews. At least when it's on Amazon you know it's in stock. Last spring I traveled over an hour to buy a camera that I decided to buy from Amazon reviews and the stores I went to didn't have it. I ended up buying it from Amazon. I should have stayed home and saved the gas.
I don't have many shopping options locally, either. I buy books, DVDs, and electronics from Amazon. Never had any problems with any of them. But it's a good idea to hang onto the original packaging for a while in case you need to return something.
Yes, I buy from Amazon. I also buy from Ebay and and a lot of other online places. I don't have a lot of time to shop after I get off work and I don't want to spend my weekends shopping, so I get a lot of stuff online and have it shipped to me. I just bought a new vaccum from MyToolStore.com because I couldn't find this particular vaccum anywhere. I bought my barstools off Amazon because I looked everywhere and couldn't find any "Tuscan" barstools. Amazon had them and at a really good price too. I am also a member of DirectBuy and actually do spend a lot of my weekends in the showroom looking through product catalogs because I am STILL furnishing my house.
I buy from Amazon.com all the time. I haven't looked in to Buy.com. I have an Amazon credit card which gives points. Gas, food, anything I can put on that credit card goes on there. With free shipping, I usually get stuff from amazon for free or a few dollars.

I've been buying from Amazon for 8 years and never had a problem with the sellers or the products. I get most of my DVDS and video games from there and a book from time to time.
Amazon does have some good prices on some items, you need to compare. I've bought also from Overstock.com and was very happy with my items from them also (actually bought a bedroom set, it had to be assembled but it looks good and it's very sturdy). Ebay of course is a given I think
