    I ordered a lot of items from Amazon.uk, never had any problems.

    Ebay, can't order unfortunately. I'm not a friend of PayPal.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    Amazon - trustworthy, bought from them regularly.

    Ebay - I wouldn't trust them with a £5 free book token.

    You can definitely trust Amazon. I've bought books, games, movies, and entire DVD sets and no problems.

    All us men suffer in equal parts, it's our lot in life, and no man goes without a broken heart or a lost love. Like holding your dog as he takes his last breath and dies in your arms, it's a rite of passage. Unavoidable. And honestly, I can't imagine life without that depth of feeling.-Bierut

    Nah, Amazon has been the biggest scam ever and has been going on in public for the last five or so years. Everybody who says they successfully ordered from them is a shill-bot from Amazon, the real victims are out there everywhere but noone has noticed them yet.

    Banks who offer mortages for crumbling broken down houses to jobless people in America which they could not repay and the values of the houses sharply declining due to being in a bad state, also known as the subprime market. Then all these massives of debts are then packaged together as "structured investment desposits" then sold by American banks to all the other banks of the world paying over-inflated prices for what they were really worth and when the world realised what happened and that the banks actually had no money at all, it caused a number of them to crash, the loans dried up, no body could borrow any money to buy anything, thus the economy suffered as there was no demand and surplus supply, etc etc.


    So what does this have to do with anything with Amazon?

    If you're always weary about established business,do you ask you mom whether the supermarket can be trusted before going there? After all by the time you find out they sold you plastic apples, it might be an empty building with all the scammers gone.

    I was just surprised that you didn't even know Amazon is trustworthy. It's one of if not the most famous online shop.

    I've used both sites at least 50 times each over the years and have had no problems that a quick e-mail or checking to see if the neighbours had taken my package in didn't sort.

    Also have a look at play.com if you're in the UK, free delivery on everything.
