    Yes, it is. :)
    Best thing is, you do shopping sitting in front of your pc, rather than going out!

    Yes, it is.
    You not need to take long distance travel to the shopping mail and walk for hours to get into shop.
    Simple and fast, i love it!

    Hi Kitty,

    Yes I feel online shopping is reliable with reputable companies. Some things have to be purchased online, so far I haven't had any problems.

    I never had ANY problems while doing online shopping. I shopped from e-stores based in France, India, UK and the US and never had an issue...I even tried some that are "not popular" :)

    I just love online shopping. It is much more easier and fun for me. I can go through what I like and select easily. I love to do the real world offline shopping as well but since online shopping is much more easier I prefer it.

    I love Amazon - a lot of items have free shipping and NO tax -- tax can really add up if you buy locally depending on the tax rate in your area and how much an item costs - could add up to $100 to a $1000 purchase - that's like getting 10% off.

    Im careful of security and only use big sites or brands where i know my personal details are safe

    Dont think i would rarely shop at a site i know nothing about

    But its easier and if i do some research i can often save some money buying online even after adding the shipping cost

    I never buy anything via a link sent to my email inbox

    Thanks for all your replies. I usually find some special things, such as clothing, shoes, handbags or other ornaments. But I seldom buy them for I am not sure the reliablity of online stores. Now, I think I really have groundless worries or anxieties. I can try online shopping since it's unconvinent for me to go out for shopping. Thanks for tips!

    Honestly speaking it was comfortable to buy online..
    But in my opinion it's still best to buy products which
    you can see.. so that you can judge if you will buy it
    or not.. you are the QA of the product you want to buy..

    Going out to shop will help you to refresh and break the monotony, especially if you lead a sedentary lifestyle. If you feel that you don't have time to go out to shop and always behind schedule, then online shopping will come in handy...

    I think it reliable.
    Just pay with PAYPAL and not Western Union.
    Also great bargains to be found.

    I live in Albania and online shopping is still a small thing here. Some sites advertise that they deliver but people are afraid of scams so they go out to buy most things.
    I've also asked people about e-bay and they have said that everything that they have bought from it has been delivered successfully. If i find anything interesting there I'm going to go ahead and give it a try.
