I have used half.com for numerous reasons, the main one, using the site to buy college books. If I know ahead of time what book I need, I can spend a fraction of the cost buying it through half.com. College bookstores can be pricey. I have also used ...

When I was in college, I always turned to half.com when it came time to purchase my books for the semester. So often I could find the books that I needed for significantly less than the university bookstore or other retailers were selling it. I also ...

I recently used Half.com to purchase a new cell phone. The initial purchase process was very easy. Search for item, place order, wait. I used my credit card assuming this would be fast ... I was mistaken!
I had not received a confirmation...

Half.com is a website owned by Ebay, and sells items at fixed prices (no auctions). They have lengthy policies about buying & selling, which apparently are up for interpretation. I recently lost my cell phone and needed another one ASAP. I've bought ...

I've recently bought a VHS tape that was damaged when it arrived, so I went into my...

Pros: Low prices on items. Easy to find items. Very regimented.
Cons: Limited customer service. Quality of products unknown. Half.com does not fix problems.
If the following is tough to read through imagine going through it in person.
My problems started with Half.com when the coupon they sent me did not work. It clearly stated enter coupon key to get $5 off $10 dollar or more purchase OR $10 off...

Half.com, now owned by Ebay USED to be a great site to buy and sell used items. Now, it's a harbor for retailers looking for a cheap way to resell new items they can't otherwise advertise at overinflated prices. What's worse, the Ebay manner of customer...

Cons: Problems can occur for selling.

However, if...

Pros: cheap,easy to use,great place to buy and sell stuff
Cons: none
Lets just start by saying Half.com is one of my favorites, I have been using it for about 1.5 years now. It certainly is not perfect, but I actually prefer it to ebay. Half.com is owned and run by ebay as an alternative to the bidding world. To me, its...

Think of Half as Ebay-Lite, with a bigger middle-man. I've been dealing with them regularly for about 4-5 years. UPDATE: Half has in fact been purchased by Ebay, and all Half sellers will soon be expected to "transition" to Ebay's "buy it now" style ...

I attempted to order a Canon S400 digital camera (it also came with 512 MB compact flash) using Half.com. They cancelled my order immediately the first time I tried to do it, but the explanation in the e-mail was that the item was no longer available or...
