Yes, to both auctions and online stores. So far, my personal experience has been good. Prompt delivery and items arrived as expected.

One thing I hardly buy online is my own clothes as I feel that even with measurements, I cant really visualise how the whole thing will turn out and if it will fit me. Things like texture, materials, colour run, shrinkage etc are what I'm particular about but if I buy online, I find it's hard to decide just basing on a few words or a few pictures.

Things like DVDs, books, skincare and kids' clothes are ok for me.

I think this topic can be very subjective.It is true that some sprees do not deliver on time, but I feel it is still not so bad in SG as in "cheating" as not deliver items when payment is make.I myself has done some spree shopping online before though have encounter some delay incident, but eventually shipment still arrived eventually.
I am an blogshop owner myself too selling beauty products and understand a good reputation may take times to build up and if anything goes wrong, bad reputation can spread like spider web on internet.
The best way I guess is to COMMUNICATE more with Spree owner before commit to purchase an item. Get more advice from friends who are regular online shoppers . And after that is the mutual trust between a buyer and seller on an agreed term.A good online shop owner will response more promptly,they are more honest in replying regarding customer enquiry on products. So you have to judge yourself .

I like shopping online too. Usually checking the size in their local outlet here so can be more sure to buy or check the size measurement they usually post in their website. And indeed for some brands, they are cheaper for online shopping.

Happy shopping ^.^

I love online shopping as it was tough to shop long with a fussy baby in tow. Many items are also available online and not in local stores, especially since I live in KL.

Items bought online include: modern cloth diapers, diapering accesories, cloth pads, shampoo/conditioner/bath foam/soap, books

Things to note:
- reputation of seller and store (I always check reviews out or go by friend's recommendation)
- secure payment mode (I never reveal credit card info to small stores; PayPal is great; or fund transfer to reputable small stores only)
- for first purchase, I'd buy a small amount. When confirmed that I like the shopping experience, then I'd return to make larger purchases.

Feel free to view my favourite stores at http://www.mummysreviews.com/

Happy online shopping! :)
