I was wondering about others internet purchases.
Are you particular about who you purchase from?
For the last year or so I have been selective about where I purchase.
How about the rest of you?
Amazon only. I pay everything online and have done so for the last 9 years.

I do mostly Ebay, that way I know where goods are coming from.
I avoid doing business with certain states.
I have recently stopped using Amazon since their free shipping is helped out with gov. subsidies.

Always pay with a credit card, never a debt card. You have far greater protection from fraud.
About everything I buy is from Duluth. I very much like their products and the great service. All with credit card.
I get great buys on boots and clothes on Sierra trading, I've gotten $250 and $350 class boots for as low as $50 to $80. $70 Sun blocker fishing shirts for as low as $15. Our mud boots retail at $129, got them for $29 a pair.
Then I get about 80 or more things on Amazon every six months, many bigger ticket items like recently a really nice 500lb fireproof gun safe, high end specialty appliances, great kitchen knives, I like getting something that retails at $800 like a high end rice maker for $300. Then the Amazon 5x points on the credit card is always amounting to enough to get things I wouldn't normally get at way less. I figure I saved close to two grand on the gun safe.
I won't buy from ebay, I refuse to use paypal, I've had too many ripoffs both buying and selling when I used to sell high end watches and stereo equipment on ebay.
Found something I agree with you, never use a debt card and stay away from sites that don't use https, what sure that s is there.

If at all possible I don't purchase from these states.
CA, NY, Il.
Why should I support a state that doesn't have my ideals.
My worry is that they will start fleeing their state only to move and attempt to ruin the ones they move to.
Dreaded words, I just moved here from California.

I buy very little from places in states that collect taxes for Illinory !
My bank card is a debt if I choose, it's also a credit card if I choose but the card is used just as ID for deposit.
