    Do you people buy online things like tshirts and other computer consumables? I have bought something from ebay now I believe that offlien purchase is better than online purchase. What do you think?

    I never purchased anything from eBay/ eCommerce sites. But paid much for online services.

    I never bought anything tangible yet online. I deem it risky.

    Yeah I buy a few things online if and when I need them. The world as we now it is changing and is becoming more digital, I think in the future I think everything will become more digital in ways we can't yet think of. Who throught 50 years ago that I could sit in room and look into a screen and buy and sell things to people from around the globe, just shows you how technology is transforming everyones lifes if not directly then in-directly.

    No, I don't. I do not own a credit card. So, it's impossible for me.

    I prefer to buy offline (from a dealer near to me). Its risky to buy online sometimes IMO.

    DON.

    That is depend on what the products are. I have purchase gadgets and books via online before. But stuff like tshirts and shoes, I prefer to buy it offline.

    Online purchase is not perfect substitute for offline purchase. If you don't have time, you can get some thing from eBay or other online shops.

    Live CD of Linux is available for free from Fedora or Ubuntu, forgot which one. You just have to enter your address in their website and they'll ship it for free.

    Topic : Buying online has never appealed to me because it takes a little time for the items you bought to reach your place and I'm an impatient guy.

    I buy nearly everything online except for food and clothes.
    Lots of RC stuff and gadgets, bike stuff, garden stuff, etc etc.

    :) Years ago I asked them to ship ONE cd, they ended up sending me 20, which I promptly gave out to everyone that had never tried Linux.

    I normally do. It is for me alot easier than actually going out and buying things, and you can get the exact thing you want in the specified color right to your door!
