Amazon rules - it's that simple
Amazon rules - it's that simple. It keeps track of what I buy so I don't end up with duplicates. I find lots of used books that are out of print or that cost way below retail. If it's not the first place I go to shop, it's usually the last, because I've looked at prices elsewhere and realized I can get it cheaper at Amazon. I participate in their Vine program where I test products and write reviews, but I wrote reviews before, just for fun. I check my recommendations several times a week just to see what's new and update my wish lists. I use the gift lists to plan my holiday shopping. I'm saving my pennies so I can hopefully someday buy a KINDLE!

You're done!
An online place where words are real experience. You're done! True signature line in its real spirits. They mean it. Always kept their promise. Amazing Amazon.com.

Still my #1 Lovemark
Now here is a true Lovemark - almost four years after I first nominated it here (on 16 Feb 2004) it is still my #1 Lovemark. Still 100% delivery against expectation every single time. Still great personalised offers. Still great value. Still relevant, non-intrusive emailing. Still great packaging. Still a gift for me every time it arrives (even though I bought it). And still the biggest, best, easiest, most personal shop on earth. And it just get's better - as it's got to know me it's become more relevant, closer, better, more useful. Deep long love. Nothing else comes close.

You can find nearly anything
I’m so torn. There’s NO PLACE better to do on-line browsing for books, you can find nearly anything and the prices are great. But...I tend to want to do my buying at the independents with all their bricks and mortar quirkiness.

If I can't find it here, I can't find it anywhere
I'm also a customer from way back and I've watched Amazon grow and change. And no matter what, the focus is always books and CDs/DVDs. I admire how Amazon had the nerve to allow other sellers to join in the party. If I can't find it here, I can't find it anywhere.

I am probably one of Amazon's earliest customers.
I am probably one of Amazon's earliest customers. I just found an old receipt, inside a book, dated October 1995. It felt like such a neat idea to read about a book and get nearly instant gratification by being able to buy it, even in pajamas! I often wanted books that had to be specially ordered anyway. I will continue as a customer, since Amazon really does know what they are doing, and overall, the prices can't be beat.

Always able to count on Amazon
Amazon is amazing! I've been ordering from them since they were just a novel idea. I've always been able to count on Amazon - everything arrives, it gets here when it's supposed to, it gets sent to other people and the gift wrap is lovely, and it always provides just what I'm looking for. Many times Amazon has saved my last-minute birthday shopping problems, and one year everyting I bought for the winter holidays came from Amazon. It is a wonderful friendly place that I can count on!

Those many years ago
Amazon.com is one of the original shopping sites on the web. It was the first site I ever felt safe to order from those many years ago, and it is still one of the best! Keep up the great service, Amazon.com!

A booklover's dream
As a librarian, I love Amazon.com. The reviews by trade publications and readers are invaluable. In particular, I enjoy the lists of favorites contributed by readers who share their enthusiasm with others. The site offers a wealth of information, great pricing, a huge inventory, and quick shipment. Now with greatly expanded non-book merchandise, it's the premier one-stop shopping site as well as a booklover's dream!

Everything I need
I love Amazon.com. I can always find everything I need there. Things that aren't available where I live can be found with ease and are always promptly delivered.
