I basically ignored the negative reviews on this site and went ahead and tried buy.com to order a TV and a 5.1 surround sound system. The low prices was too hard to turn down.
I received my order confirmation instantly, and the shipping information was emailed to me the next day. The following day, the package was in the shipment system. The freight company contacted me a few days later to set up a delivery time (4 days ahead of estimated!)
The tv arrived, perfect condition.
The 5.1 system was shipped via FedEx, and I had no problems with them either. The shipment info emailed the day after the order was placed, and the following day the package was in the shipment system as well.
I'm not sure why there are so many negative reviews for buy.com, but I had a great experience without any hiccups!
I would recommend buy.com even for large ticket items, as I see no reason why to pay more at other vendors.
