Do you buy stuff online and which is more important for you price or faster delivery?
Amazon is thinking of setting up distribution centers across the US just so they can deliver same day, but this means they have to pay sales taxes which they pretty don't do for the past 18 years?
Will you still buy from amazon or any other online stores if it is a little bit expensive but delivery is faster?
Which is more important for you as an online buyer?
I generally always pay extra fo next day, or timed delivery. It is not a question of being over eager for the goods, it means I can arrange for someone to be there to take collection and so not have annoying cards through the door to re-arrange delivery.
And now amazon will take it to the next higher level, fast delivery on the same day, so you don't bother anymore to pay for the extra, rather you will pay for the sales tax. I think this is good so that the local gov't can get taxes from the online s
Price isn't a issue if I can't find the same item locally. ALL online sites, in my opinion should be collecting and reporting sales tax received. The sales tax money being collected help pay for the services in your city. If not collected officials have to find alternate ways to generate lost revenues for services they provide for people living there. Usually this means your property tax going up. I prefer to buy from local ma and pa brick and mortar stores.
good thinking, now this is alright because amazon.com will pay sales tax if they will push through with it!
Price. I normally purchase the 1 penny books at Amazon, yet the shipping still makes the books worth the price. If they do that, my plan is ruined and I will have to go to the used bookstore fifteen minutes away and waste my gas...
oh ok, why not buy them by bulk. Can you not get a kindle fire instead? Thanks for your comment.
Personally neither price or fast delivery are the biggest factors in my online shopping. I find that easy navigation of the site is most important for me. One of my LEAST favorite things about shopping in brick and mortar stores is that they are always moving things around, thus taking what should be a simple task like grocery shopping and turning it into a scavenger hunt!! When I do shop brick and mortar, I tend to stick with small businesses rather than big box stores. Sure it costs a little bit more but you get better service and they tend to support the local community more routinely and with more loyalty.

I know there is a lot of free stuff offered online but many times the codes are out of date or it takes forever to find the right place online. How do you find free stuff online? Have you found free stuff online?

I love that you don't have to pay full price for anything! Simply do a search on an item or a retailer and you can find coupons to either print or use a discount code during your transaction. You can sign up for daily deals and get email notifications to purchase a great deal.

What's do you think is more important in order to make a sale: Price or Service?
by Sondra Rochelle 10 years ago
Today I was shocked to see that on my Amazon ads there were no visible prices! The only thing that was on the ad was the title of the item and a big, orange BUY IT NOW sign.I think this is going to put a real dent in sales because I'm guessing most people will feel that they would like...
