I ordered some hiking boots and was very pleased with my shopping experience and especially the price. They shipped via UPS Ground after a one day delay. Customer service is not always available (possibly on lunch break) but when you reach someone by phone they are helpful.

You are lucky if raileurope.com only marks up your rail tickets by 10% like it said in the other review. My tickets were marked up over 80%. SNCF, the French national railway, owns tgv-europe.com, raileurope.com, and raileurope-world.com. The tickets on tgv-europe.com are the cheapest. However, if you are not careful, they will redirect you to one of the other sites where the tickets are much more expensive. raileurope.com always charges a $7.95 fee and they did not offer e-tickets for my itinerary. There is no reason at all to use them and my discovery of the many complaints about them on the Internet confirms this. They now have the honor being my worst Internet shopping experience out of all the sites I have shopped at and reviewed.

I placed an order for a magazine subscription renewal for a magazine that doesn't give discounted subscription prices. However, they were having a 50% cash back sale with a third party website so I got a nice discount. The cash back was credited promptly and my magazine subscription expiration date got updated about three weeks after the order.

180s is using an order processing system that was state of the art ten years ago. Their system does not keep track of inventory. Nonetheless, they will charge your credit card as soon as you place your order. If they discover they are out of stock a few days later, they will refund the charge on your credit card. Not impressed.

6pm.com has great prices and currently offers free shipping on all items. They used UPS 3 Day Select to ship my jacket so it saved a few days over UPS Ground cross country shipping. This was my first time ordering but given their prices I'll have to start buying more clothes online.

I had a good experience similar to others. Placed an order for four tires and they were shipped promptly via UPS Ground to a local installer. Got my cash back promptly and looks like the $50 rebate is on the way. Great prices and service.

I had a $20 gift certificate that I bought on Google Offers for half the price and I have a one year free Shoprunner membership. I got a toy shipped in two days at 40% off retail so, in contrast to most others, I was extremely pleased with my shopping experience.

I shopped for the first time at kmart.com and was pleasantly surprised especially when considering the other reviews. One item shipped from a nearby warehouse and the other shipped from a local store so I ended up getting both items after one business day. They had a free shipping promo and the best price for the two items. This beats Amazon Super Saver Shipping so hopefully Kmart can stay in business to provide some competition.

I got a great deal by finding a 25% off coupon and using a free USPS priority shipping promotion. Their usual shipping costs can be a bit high, though. The product got to me within a week. They sent me the correct USPS tracking number but then also sent me a UPS tracking number for someone else and attached that number to my online order status.

I placed an order and received a notification 5 days later that the order was canceled. The reason given was that credit card authorization failed and the notice just contained boilerplate language rather than a specific reason. They should perform credit card authorization during order placement like everyone else so that any problems can be resolved quickly. Luckily I found a cheaper and better merchant for the product.

In contrast to others, I had a positive experience. I ordered on a Sunday during the busiest shopping weekend of the year and they had my order shipped by Monday morning. One of the items was a glass and it was packed carefully. Prices are OK when you consider that you will always pay a premium for officially licensed sports merchandise. They use UPS 3 day shipping for a $4.99 flat fee (although it was free due to a promotion) so you don't have to wait long for your items.

I've ordered from macys.com several times and I've never had any problems. They'll ship quickly although they usually use UPS Ground which can be slow. The $8 shipping fee is a nuisance if buying less than $100 worth of items. However, you will get coupons in the mail if you are a Macy's cardholder or you can sometimes find them online (such as 20% off, $10 off $30, $20 off $50). The coupons will make the purchase a good value.

The shipping charges by the merchant are outrageous. Most items sold by this merchant are available for the same price or less, but with free shipping, on amazon.com. So, there really isn't much reason to shop here. Also, there's no mention of a price match policy on their website

I bought a CD and sold a bunch of CDs and DVDs and was very pleased with both experiences. The CD I bought arrived in only 4 days and was in good condition.

The CDs and DVDs that I sold were all accepted at the great prices I was promised when I placed the order. They took about a week to process my shipment after receiving it. They sent the check quickly though. Note that they reimburse for the cost of media mail shipping if you ship at least 5 CDs or DVDs.

Be sure to look for coupons before placing your order. They had a coupon for 25% off and free shipping for purchases and a coupon for 20% added to the value of CDs that were sold.

Coastal Contacts got contacts to me in eight days despite my choosing the slowest shipping option. They were gas permeable contacts which are usually not in stock. It probably helped that I emailed them a scanned prescription as soon as I placed my order. They frequently have good coupons so be sure to look for them! There are a few minor complaints, though. Their initial estimate of three weeks for receiving contacts was way off and they didn't send the shipping email until after my contacts arrived. They add a handling fee of 6.95% to each order although there is no good reason not to simply mark up the price of everything instead of having this hidden fee (although it is disclosed before placing your order). Also, I ordered via a third party link to get cash back but it wasn't reported automatically.
