Received my order quickly. I got 3 Redline products - Some Manual Transmission fluid, ATF Fluid, and Fuel Cleaner. Their prices and shipping were quite competitive.

My only complaint was that the MT Fluid seemed to leak quite a bit after shipping. I think it was left to be too loose in the box. Not a lot was lost so it wasn't a huge deal, but it sure made the jug messy.

You know, I really can't think of any negative experience with Amazon. Sure, they're absolutely huge and people love to hate it, but at the end of the day the really run a pretty fantastic, fast, and inexpensive operation.

The website is well laid out, items are easy to find, and there is an abundance of selection and alternative vendors - as well as used items. What more could you want?

Back in May 2010 I got 3 subscriptions of The Atlantic from DiscountMags for myself, my brother, and my parents at a great discount price with a coupon code.

All 3 subscriptions went through flawlessly and I've been enjoying the service since. They often have fantastic deals and coupon codes - and given that they've been reliable once, I'd be likely to use them again in the future.

I've only used two services for canvas printing - Canvas Lifestyle and Canvas on Demand, and I must say I was much more impressed with the whole experience with Canvas on Demand.

Here is why:
After my initial order confirmation, Canvas Lifestyle never contacted me again. I never got a shipping notification, tracking number - nothing. I had no idea if I or my parents were even going to get our prints. Nearly every online company sends this information. I expected more.

Contrast this with Canvas on Demand who contacted me about some possible blemishes and noise in the photo, and wanted to be sure that I was OK with them before shipping the print. Now that is service. Then I got constant shipping feedback as well.

Also, I find the quality of the print from Canvas Lifestyle to be inferior to Canvas on Demand. The colors in one photo came out very yellowish where it should be white. Also, the sheen is WAY to glossy for a canvas print. The blacks are reflective and hard to see when a light is shining on the canvas. The print felt tacky, like it wasn't dried all the way when they shipped it.

They also didn't include any mounting hardware (unlike Canvas on Demand) or instructions. At least they did a good job stretching/mounting the canvas to the frame.

I wouldn't order from these guys again, even with the heavy discounts they sometimes have on Groupon or similar sites.

I ordered a large canvas print of a photo I had taken in Spain after purchasing a Groupon for Canvas On Demand.

Shortly after placing my order, I was contacted by Canvas On Demand about some potential issues with the photo. I called the number provided, was immediately greeted by a person who went over some of the questionable aspects of the photo in fine detail.

Firstly, they said that there was some graniness in the photo that they would not be able to remove. I explained that the photo was actually from a film scan, so I expected that and actually liked the effect. She also highlighted some blurriness in the background that I was OK with, and some overexposure/defects that were due to my camera leaking light. I also said that these were OK since they would be right at the corners, and she agreed.

The level of detail that they had put into examining every aspect of my photo really astounded me. I later purchased some prints from Canvas Lifestyle and got no such level of service.

Communication was consistent - I got a shipping notification and tracking number. The print arrived in a beautiful condition, perfectly wrapped, and with a great matte finish that doesn't look too shiny under lights. Much better than Canvas Lifestyle's printing quality.

I'd highly recommend Canvas On Demand for canvas prints. I'll likely purchase from them in the future for any canvas needs.

I kind of wish my seat had arrived 1 business day earlier so it would have been ready for my weekend bike ride, but I can't complain. The new bike saddle I bought was much cheaper than anywhere else, and they also offered a 10% off online coupon for it. The selection is pretty decent overall, I'd buy from them again if they have what I'm looking for, though it's not the best site to just browse around.

I had a positive experience with Provantage. The product shipped quickly, and their price was one of the lowest. I'd purchase from them again.
