Which sites do you go to buy things online?
Just thought I'd open a topic here to determine where you guys go to buy stuff online. I'm gonna use this information to find out which sites I'll include in the Marketplace section of OTS

The sites don't have to be just limited to computers. It could be movies, music, even clothes.

Re: Which sites do you go to buy things online?
I am sorry - the site is best used to glance at once a day for 5 seconds only to guage whether need the item or not...I made the same mistake as you once and should have posted a warning

http://www.amazon.co.uk or .com for US

Re: Which sites do you go to buy things online?
I spent about 15 large at Amazon last year. For woodworking stuff I hit up leevalley.com, rockler.com and woodcraft.com.

Re: Which sites do you go to buy things online?
I check out NewEgg and Tiger Direct. Of course Best Buy.com since I work there... but it's just to get SKUs to price things out when I go in to work. Otherwise iTunes for music or direct from the artist. Not a whole lot more. I do most of my shopping in stores for easier return/exchanges.

Re: Which sites do you go to buy things online?
Just thought I'd mention Amazons newish music download service. It blows Itunes away, though I'm not sure how the selection of each stacks up to each other. The thing with Amazon, though, is you get direct downloads of 256k mp3s with NO DRM.
