This is why I prefer to go into a store with physical cash money and purchase what I can see up close and personal....that way I can see what I'm getting, there's no cards or banks involved, and if there's a problem I can return it more easily.
Ebay & Paypal may be convenient but doing business face to face is still better/safer. |
Yes I can see your point, however there are some things I can't get at a store around here and the net provides cheaper.
For example, I bought my Father-in-law some Hallmark channel movies..the really old ones. I called video stores and big chains and no one could get them for me without ordering off the net themselves.
So in that case I ordered it and saved myself the middle man fee.
Also when I read a series of books, sometimes one of the books if out of print and I can't find it at the libraries, so I'll order it online. Again, cut out the retail man.
I also pay bills online. In fact, many services here charge $2-$5 extra a month to send me a bill in the mail. That adds up fast.
