Update Ok, I came home from a service call yesterday afternoon lo and behold! Inside my door was the box from Buy.com via UPS ground with the laptop in it! El-yay! What happened? The package actually left Buy.com on the 21st of ...
Ordered a Belkin router from buy.com on April 12th. Received an empty box on April 15th with hand written "packing list only" on box. Had not been tampered with but was full of only foam peanuts. Contacted buy.com (which isn't easy because their idea...
Pros: lots of computer stuff, prices still pretty cheap Cons: no product reviews, other stores have relatively small selections, no more coupons!
When buy.com first opened, their strategy was to use advertising to keep product prices low, generally below cost. It worked (at first) - prices were generally the lowest available online, coupled with very cheap shipping.
Pros: Fast service on in stock items, very competitive prices in some areas Cons: Limited selection, sometimes inconsistent service
buy.com is very good. Not perfect, but very good. I am writing because they get it right a lot of the time. And that's pretty good, considering the number of companies that can't get it right at all.
Pros: Speed, prices, tracking Cons: extra clicks on web site, haven't had to test customer service
Update, June 2004: If you don't know by now, Buy.com is your one-stop superstore for all things electronic. And they have thrown in music (CD and online), books, magazines, sports equipment and toys. While not as expansive as Amazon in ...
I just bought a compactFlash card and a smartmedia card last Monday and Tuesday and I am very surprised that I now have the products before the week ends. And yes, shipping on both products were FREE and the prices I paid for the cards were extremely...
Pros: They offer a wide range of products and offer lots of coupons Cons: Shortage of inventory results in longer waiting time
On of the great things about buy.com is that
they offer occassional coupons and at decent amounts
($10, $20, even $30). All my purchases from buy.com
have been with coupons, and the best way to find them
is to use search engines to...
Buy.Com was my first internet order store. They turned my order into nightmare. First, my item was very late. second, the item they sent was defective. Third, I tried to return it, it did not work. Of course, they know that they sold the defective...
I purchased a printer. The order stayed in the sent to warehouse status. I went to call and get a status to see if the product was in stock. They want to charge me 10 bucks to check the status of my order! LOL I purchased something from a company...
Pros: Quick, easy, affordable Cons: Doesn't have some 'name-brands'
Need something quick? Maybe it's a CD or that turkey cutter you need for Thanksgiving. Or maybe you forgot that holiday or birthday present for someone? Oh, now you got the answer! Go to an online store and get it just in time, right? Wrong. Most online...
I purchased 2 memory sticks from them and received them in record time. I got excellent feedback immediately via email including a tracking number and product came on time and was exactly as ordered. Wonderful company to deal with and I will buy from...
I hadn't ordered from them in over a year when out of the blue I received an email last week saying that they were shipping me two items that I had supposedly ordered 3 days previously. I called to tell them I hadn't place an order but it costs $9.95 to...
Pros: Good Service, Excellent Return Policy Cons: Often Info on if Item Shipped not Accurate
I only buy from online stores I trust. That pretty much limits me to Amazon, buy.com and J&R. I find that buy.com typically has very good prices on some if not all of the electronics that I need.
Almost always very reliable. Product displays are very good, but search results pages might be better organized. Read more

it has always been a good experience at buy.com and would and I do, recommend it to others. They have always dealt with any problems that I have run into quickly and to my satisfaction. tracking documentation and numbers are always there and easy to find and follow. I would like to see a better photograph of the items for sale. Sometimes it is quite difficult to make out just what a paticular artical may look like. They can at time be rather small and that makes it tough to see details too. Regarding rebates, I would really, really like to have an easier rebate process. It becomes such a hassle sometime I will just not purchase an item just because of the rebate. Lets say, I wanted to buy several things and they all have rebates, then the confusing paperwork nightmare that can ensue is often a really time consuming distraction to deal with and it ends up being easier to just skip it all and click on out'a there. I am starting to see and hear about other stores doing something like online rebates. Nothing to mail back or clip of or gather together, somehow it all is taken care of online - like it should be for an online retailer. I think it was staples or office max, one of the "office" type stores that I saw it at. I really think that Buy.com should look into this, I for one would definitely buy not things if I didn't have to always deal with those pesty rebate forms ect... Read more
