Online vs. In-Store

After reading a recent post written by Jeff Bertolucci of PCWorld.com, I began to wonder, how does buying online compare to going to the actual store down the street. In my opinion if you truly understand the details and specs of what you are buying online, then that may be the better route. However buying in the store is safer than sending your credit card number across the internet.
As quoted in Jeff’s article, “Best Places to Buy Tech Products–Now and Post-Holidays”,
“Between August 2006 and the same month a year later, 14 percent of the $159 billion that U.S. shoppers spent on consumer electronics was spent online, up from 5 percent a year earlier, according to the Consumer Electronics Association.”
So what I am trying to figure out is how you all feel about the two different situations. I am going to start a new thread on HBPForums.com, and I invite you all to come by and leave us your opinion. And as always, please leave a comment on this post.
