It is Still Difficult to Purchase Online
from the failures-galore dept
According to the latest study from Boston Consulting Group, approximately 28% of all online transactions fail. Understandably, this upsets many customers. Of course, while this is bad in the short run, I highly doubt it will have any long term effects on consumer behavior.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team

1st post? WAaaaaaaaaaaahoooooooo
Let me rant/rave.
Only and I mean ...even if your life depends on it, shop from a true .com. NEVER a .[country]. They are evil. As for .coms...look at their page, is someone ELSE hosting them? are they using mybiz.yahoo.com? Look at other responses from ppl that ordered. I only use netflix, amazon, my fav is outpost, and b&n. Few others, but they provide me w/ service......not goods. Call them, if you are on hold......and you talk to bob......and call back and get bob....then BOB will rape you and your children.
