Default I HATE ordering stuff online

I am the A typical instant gratification Dude. I would pay a few more dollars to be able to get what I want NOW! lol. Seriously. I'm like the kid that goes nuts waiting to open Christmas presents, wait, I AM that 50 yoa kid. So I order some stuff online at a great price and spend the next week waiting and watching for the initial, order processed. Then the ever feel good of the tracking number. The anticipation is DRIVING ME NUTS!
ok. i feel better,,, for now.

I hear ya! What ticks me off the most is the ebay option that says its "close" to you and come to find out they have it dropped shipped 2000 miles from home. WTF is that! I'm waiting on stuff to I have checked the ups site 10 times in the last 20 minutes...

I do have to admit that I like to have something in my hand and know what I am getting. But we make our living on the internet and bust our butt, to provide everyone a tracking number, get things out in time and try to give them better quality than they expected..

My wife is the online buyer. If I don't know the company, I'd rather pay more and buy it in person. She sent me a CL picture of a jacket. I told her I had no comment. If she ges taken, I won't have to say I told you so.
