Has anyone ever shopped at buy.com?

I can get a 4g 20gig with dock for 310.00 from them, but I have never shopped with them before. Has anyone else have or know if they are good or bad? Thanks!

I may just buy it from apple, but I was also wondering, does Apple charge tax online/ If they did, it would cost an extra 30.00, and that would suck.

I have purchased from buy.com and it is a very reliable company. Fast shipping and reliable service. I have never had a problem with them. I would not hesitate to order from them again.

I have made dozens of purchases from them, and never had any issues. I'll keep going back to them, and yes tax free is a huge plus.

Back in October I ordered 3 iPods from Buy.com and they were shipped quickly and arrived in perfect condition. We love them :-) I definitely recommend going with Buy.com as their prices (if you catch them at the right time) can be quite good.

buy.com is great, I've ordered from them many times. Shipping to me is very fast, and they have some great deals from time-to-time. Highly recommend them.

I have never had a problem with buy.com

true sory -> I used to work near one of their distribution centers and if we placed an order in the morning, it would arrive by 5:00pm the SAME DAY

seriously, it was awesome

Well, how about another story? ;)

I've purchased from buy.com twice. They've screwed up the order...twice!

The first time I ordered an iRiver MP3-CD player. They charged me for one, but sent me two. That sort of error I can live with!

The second time I ordered a set of PC speakers. They said it was on backorder, which was true for the first couple of weeks. I e-mailed them a couple of days after they were showing it in-stock. They never replied to the e-mail, but later that day I got an e-mail saying it was being shipped. That was fortunate, because I was using a rebate that was getting close to expiration by that time.

Neither was a real drastic problem, of course, but I'm a little leery of them now.

I have ordered from buy.com once and had no problems. Give them a try. Since it is your first order, make sure you use a coupon code to get more money off your order. You can usually find them at the coupon code sites or search on buy.com coupon codes. Here is one that I found:

Thanks! I found another one, and I think I will get a 20gig hPod and a dock for about 310.00.
