So far, I haven't made any purchases from Amazon. I usually find that Walmart has similar inventory; and many times, lower prices.
Over here, Amazon is usually the cheapest choice. I think 80% of my online purchases are from Amazon.
They also have the best return policy. If you can send it by post, then all you have to do is print the label, stick it to the box and send it back free of charge. A friend of mine bought 42" LCD. 2 weeks down the line his wife made up her mind that she dislikes it, so he arranged with Amazon a pick up day and time. No questions. No delivery payment or payment for sending back. I am not aware of anything as convenient as Amazon in the UK.
