Advantages: Quick service and easy to use gift vocuhers Disadvantages: Plain website
I am only new to buying everyday items on the Internet, but was impressed by the service I receive from this company. I was given £35 worth of vouchers from an Internet site, and decided to take the payment as Amazon gift vouchers. Amazon has the best idea around at the moment…E vouchers!
E vouchers allow someone to email you with a reference that you type in when adding your payment method. You can use more than one voucher per transaction. How ...

Advantages: So many services and details to add to your shopping experience Disadvantages: None really. See opinion
Amazon is one of the most advertised and well-known sites on the internet; a shopping site that is most known for selling books. But this is not all Amazon has to offer, also selling CDs, DVDs, Software, Computer games and music among others.
Being a virgin in the world of online shopping I decided to test Amazon as my first experience for Ciao. They are also one of the very few major sites that will allow their customers to pay by cheque and, ...

...I'm not sure why amazon.co.uk has been put in a category under music retailers but this is going to be a review of the book section of Amazon.
First things first, I have been living in Munich for the past year. I have 4 main options for buying my English-language books:
1. at an International bookstore in Munich.
2. in Ireland when I visit and bringing them back to Germany with me.
3. from amazon.de
4. from amazon.co.uk
Of these options, ...

...nothing but praise for Amazon.co.uk . I have ordered countless books, cd's and toys through them, as gifts for family and friends in England, since I'm now living in the USA. I have been amazed at the efficiency with which the order is processed, despatched and received. They are wonderful. It makes my search for gifts so much easier, no hassle shopping, or lines at the Post Office. No worrying about shipping - they take care of it all and will even ...

This must be one of the best reliable sites for us entertainment junkies. I have ordered countless items from this site and they have delivered every time. Their products range from books, electronics, DVDs, music, software, pc & video games. They also have a kids section, hold auctions and have an affiliation with zShops.
One of the newest features on Amazon is the WAP site, for us WAP junkies too. On the WAP site you can search for product titles, ...

This morning I've just recieved my umpteenth delivery from those lovely folks at amazon and having just joined Ciao well I thought who better to write my first opinion on than my favourite little corner of this thing we call the world wide web.
Anyway back onto the review then, a long time ago I'd saved up enough vouchers to get the X-files first season box-set on VHS from them so being the gullible young pup that I am off I went and straight away ...

I've been using amazon.co.uk for nearly a year now and I've found it to be a superb site. Judging by the number of opinions that have been written, it is very popular and deservedly so.
But what does Amazon give you that 'real' book/video/music shops can't? Well, firstly Amazon has a huge range of stock which means that you can often find slightly more obscure items that you wouldn't find on the shelf at WHSmith. In particular, there are more American ...

Advantages: Very user friendly with constant communication. Has the scope to get books very cheap. Disadvantages: Could be risky if dealer doesn't send the books
Those that know me will recall that I am an avid Robin Cook fan (Medical Thrillers), and normally I buy his books from a bookshop. However as it can be quite expensive I thought I'd try out the auctions at amazon.co.uk.
I firstly registered with amazon so that I would receive emails from them telling me about new releases etc. Then I clicked onto the auctions box. There are lots of other categories of auction as well as books and these include:

OK, here we go, another unpaid opinion for love not money!
I don’t do much online shopping due to not having a credit card but one of the few sites I can use, who accept Solo debit cards, are Amazon UK. My experiences with them so far are mixed – originally not impressed but I held off writing an opinion on them for a while until I’d used them again. Judging by many other opinions and word of mouth they seem to be a very well established and popular ...

As I write this opinion I note that there are already 388 (and counting) about this site already. Now I cannot compete (nor would I want to) with all those excellent opinions so, I, instead, will review their cracking customer service department.

I personally have never bought anything from “Amazon.co.uk”! So why am I writing an opinion on them? I hear you say! Well actually I am not writing an opinion on Amazon in a commercial sense, I am writing about them in an Affiliate sense, or as Amazon call it, Associates.
So what is Amazon’s associate program all about?
Well for starters, if you don’t own a web page and have no intentions of owning one, this opinion is ...

I have used Amazon on several occasions and been very happy with the results. The Amazon site navigation is simple and straight forward. The various categories are on tabs at the top of the page, ie books, music, DVDs, etc. Loading is very quick, both when first entering the site and navigating around the site. Help is available if you should need it and the search facility is excellent.
My son was struggling with his school reading and I wanted ...
