    Amazon for most things and eBay for rare things that have the buy now option. I'm not bidding, just give it to me.

    I honestly use eBay more but I use both. I never really bid and even so, most stuff is cheaper for me on eBay. Plus, the only 2 times I've had issues with stuff ordered online was through amazon.

    eBay isn't bad if you just use the Buy It Now option (that's what I do.) It's basically just like Amazon then.

    I use eBay for things like really old video games that can't be easily found on Amazon. Basically if you need something old and don't care if it's used, then eBay is the way to go. I've snagged some dirt cheap games and controllers that way.

    I use Amazon to fill my needs, but on eBay I do shopping. Just got Bailey some great new jammies for $3-$6 a set!

    I've never used Amazon, and I haven't used eBay in years. If I shopped online as much as I used to I'd probably be using Amazon almost exclusively. The only reason I used to use eBay so much is because the items I was buying were unique or one-off items that Amazon didn't offer.

    When I first started buying stuff over the internet, I bought from ebay. Recently, I made a purchase via Amazon, but I don't like make internet transactions. They're a little bit frightening.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    Oh, PS, I only ever "buy it now" with ebay. Do people still bid on things?

    I buy clothes and shoes on ebay. Regular solid colored camisoles, cardigans, stretch tees and flats. It's just such a million smurfing times better than going from store to store to find what I want. No I don't want a shelf bra camisole. No I don't want v-neck weird ribbed material tees. Just give me the stuff I want and give it to me super cheap as I sit in the convenience of my own home!

    I think I bid on there when I was trying to get a copy of Tomba! That's only because I saw it was at the end of the bid and it was a little cheaper than any other time I saw that game.

    I bid sometimes. Usually if it's something I only want if I get it insanely cheap.

    Gimmie some of the sellers you use!

    dingding_le for flats
    trendypunky for stretch tees
    fationage for cardigans
    fashiontracy for flats (I've bought a new pair of these mint flats each of the past two years - they're my most often-worn shoes and are sooo comfy)
    tracyfashionstore for flats. I have a super sore weakness for pointed toe flats D:
    funkykiwi has comfortable flats
    clutchlucky for camisoles
    monkeys for camisoles
    omamariclothing for camisoles

    There's a seller on amazon that sells the same style of boyfriend cardigan for just a little bit more with more varied colors - Crazy Girls Collection 1, Crazy Girls Collection 2
