Anyone use Amazon to buy from?

Can you find a link for a 64 g Itouch, that uses PayPal?

I buy from Amazon all the time, especially when they have sales and they usually have free shipping is you spend over $25. Just be careful because Amazon does have third party sellers now (like ebay). I usually like to buy directly from Amazon, but if I find a third party seller has the item cheaper, I might buy from them if they have a good rating (again like ebay). The link I posted is Amazon and you can tell this because it says sold and shipped by Amazon, but there is a link to other sellers if you click on the "see all new and used".

Again, I have bought from Amazon for years and never had an issue.

CantWait replied: So fustrating, they won't ship to either of the addresses I'm giving them.....

bluebear replied: I know that Amazon.com and Amazon.ca won't ship vice versa; but yes there are some "stores" on the site and then the actual company Amazon, then some lone sellers

Same here. Although I did recently have a problem with a third party seller, and they had a high rating too - I ordered a pair of red earbuds that were supposed to be new and they sent me purple ones in a beat up box. They refunded my money and shipping back to them too though so it worked out fine. I usually like to buy directly from Amazon too, I've never had any problem that way.

MommytoKKC replied: I love Amazon. A lot of times you can get things cheaper. And it's not hard to spend $25 to get the free shipping. I always check a couple other sites for prices though before I buy. But I've never had a problem with that site.

Not necessarily. I'm currently irritated with them, b/c they jacked up the price (by 50%!) of a hard-to-get toy, which I won't buy, no matter how badly dd wants it, unless I can find it somewhere for closer to the manufacturer's suggested retail price.
Having said that, I've used Amazon for YEARS, never with a problem. I think they pretty much perfected internet shopping, and I don't think you have anything to fear, providing you check the ratings of 3rd party sellers, like Dee Dee suggested. Just know your prices going in.

ITA. I have gotten things for extremely cheap on Amazon, and I have also seen things for way more than you can get them elsewhere. I always look on Amazon when I'm looking for a deal, but don't just go and start buying without checking other places too!

I've noticed the high prices of toys that are in high demand, but a lot of time, if you look, it is the third party selllers that are quadrupling the prices. (Like Zhu Zhu pets selling for $90 when they are $10 in stores but out of stock everywhere). I don't know how Amazon could police this though. Sometimes you can get a good deal on Amazon, and sometimes you can get a good deal someplace else... it's just like any other store. They've had some good prices on their video games if you hit them at the right time.
