The Dark Side
Aug. 3rd, 2005 12:26 pmJust yesterday I made my first purchase at Amazon.com. It was easy. _Scarily_ easy. Two hardcovers (omnibuses for a total of 5 titles): 14 bucks (shipping included). I am literally freaked out over how easy it was.
...and now that I have a password, they aren't even going to ask for my credit info again!! It's just "point, click, get."
I don't plan to get anything else until the first two volumes get here, but I can already tell I'll need to practice iron restraint to keep from purchasing a good third of their entire inventory.
It's not quite as satisfying as emerging from the store, book in hand...but given that the stores aren't _carrying_ these particular books, it'll certainly do.
*freaks out some more*
