- I expect the price to be dirt-cheap; after all, the seller doesn't have shop expenses.

- I will only buy from a couple of online sites or sellers, and I don't shop around for the best price. I could end up buying something from a dodgy source if I did that.

- I do compare prices, both online and from bricks-and-mortar shops, and I will only buy online if the b&m shop prices are vastly higher than the same item online.

- I compare prices in shops (well, actually I browse in shops to see what I want, and take down the details), and then order online at the cheapest price.

- I don't order online at all if I can buy the item from a b&m shop, and price doesn't come into it.

- I don't shop around for the cheapest option, because if it's too cheap, I tend to think there is something underhanded going on. You never know if the online seller from whom you're buying is selling stolen goods. I won't take the risk
