AWFUL - NEVER USE BUY.COM EVER
by mdc17, April 22, 2008
DO NOT purchase from Buy.com. They have products listed as "In Stock" that are not actually available. I bought a Canon HV30 and paid for 2-day shipping...five days later, I finally got a response that said the product wasn't in stock and they didn't know when it would be. They had already charged my card. When I kept calling and emailing to have it canceled, I kept getting generic responses that the product was out-of-stock but I'm on some waiting list.
<br>
Completely unacceptable. These guys are SCAM ARTISTS and don't even read your emails to them.
I would not shop here again

Customer service good but product failed to arrive
by stiltzwi, April 6, 2008
I tried to buy a software program from buy.com but all I got was a box with no software, twice. Buy.com was nice about handling the problem for me though, I can't complain about that! First they filed a replacement claim for me, and when the replacement didn't arrive they filed a refund claim for me. Sorry to say I was not going to waste another week just to see if I would get the software or not, so I ended up buying it from a retail store. I really wanted to buy from buy.com as they had a better price and a mail in rebate that would have saved me a lot! But it's hard to save money if all I get is nothing! Sad to I will probably not use buy.com to make on-line purchases again.

Unauthorized charges show up on receipt, they refuse to cancel them
by alewis95382, March 27, 2008
Buy.com has the worst customer service of any online company, hands down. I went onto their site to order a computer and an associated Windows OS upgrade. The computer was advertised as free shipping. At checkout, I realized that the Windows OS

Horrible customer service!! Unwilling to correct their mistake in a manner convenient to the customer.
by nancyinpt, March 19, 2008
I purchased an item that i was going to use on a vacation. I was sent the wrong item. When I contacted buy.com they told me that I would have to return the wrong item before they would send me the item I actually ordered. The time it would take to do this would make it too late for me to use the item on my vacation so I asked to have a refund instead since I will have to purchase it somewhere else. They said that they cannot refund me, they can only send a replacement item. They said they cannot issue me a refund even though the mistake was theirs. When calling their customer service I was put on hold for at least 10 - 15 minutes each time. It was difficult to understand the accents of the customer service people. It was buy.com's mistake and they are penalizing me. The item in question was only a $13.00. They are going to lose me as a customer for life simply over the profit margin on a $13.00 item.

Overall Good Experience
by lengrant, February 28, 2008
I have purchased from buy.com a few times. I have always been pleased with the merchandise. My only problem, they are quick to take your order and charge your credit card but a little bit slow to ship out your order.

PLEASE BE WARY AND DO NOT SUPPORT THIS COMPANY.
by jazexand, February 21, 2008
DO NOT BUY from buy.com! Their business practice and customer service is beyond shadowy. I followed an online advertisement for a product and received an invoice totaling $59 more than the online price, $15 of which was assessed as a "shipping and handling" charge (which was NOT detailed in the online checkout). I discovered this an hour and a half later when I received the emailed invoice. When I called to cancel my order due to this sneaky charge, the customer service representative said that they have a "15 minute buyer's remorse period." Again, they did not email the invoice until and hour and a half after the purchase was made! When I asked to be put in touch with her [customer support] supervisor, she would not do so and informed me that I had a "50/50 chance" of cancelling the order. The following day, I received an email saying that the order could not be cancelled and that I could either keep the product when it arrived or return it at my own cost, should it be delivered when I am not home. This company is an outrage. PLEASE BE WARY AND DO NOT SUPPORT THIS COMPANY.

Worst on-line retail experience ever
by g8rdoug, February 18, 2008
I am a regular on-line shopper and I have spent thousands of dollars on everything from computer hardware to Christmas gifts. Attempting to order something from Buy.com was by far my worst experience. I needed to buy a computer backup system and, after

I'm out $150.00 due to bad return policy and NO customer service
by patsydarling, February 15, 2008
DO NOT buy a gift (or anything else) from Buy.com! They have a ridiculously short return time, so if you hold on to your gift for a week or two, the recipient will not be able to return it if defective. My husband gave me a defective gift and we're out

A so-so experience with buy.com
by wonder1981, January 30, 2008
I recently decided to network two computers together and needed a new router. I didn't want to pay a bundle for one, so I went shopping online to find the best price. This is one time my frugal-ness may have came back to bite me. I came across a

A shopping experience full of wait haggle and bad experience.
by dh19440113, January 27, 2008
I bought a item from buy.com and they put me on back order without any warning. The customer service was very incompetent and told me they ran out of stock long ago and they will restock and fill my order. weeks passed nothing happened. i email again they still didn't have it. They are terribly incompetent and i was forced to call them in order to cancel.

Horrible customer service. Impossible to speak to anyone with authority.
by schultzee, January 24, 2008
Attempted to purchase a Weber Gas Grill totaling nearly $900. Item showed in stock at time of purchase. This was a corporate purchase, so we mailed a check. Buy.com cashed it, then sent notice that item was out of stock. Waited three months before
