Do you love it or do you avoid it?
I love to shop online.

What are your reasons for doing so?
I prefer it versus going to crowded stores.
Better deals.
No Sales Tax (almost always)
Shipping is covered by the lower price, or is free.
Less crowded.
Can comparison shop without having to call multiple places or visit multiple stores.
Don't have to carry it home.

What sites do you prefer and why?
Amazon. Straight up easiest to purchase from including buying used or from cheaper vendors.
Newegg. cheap, inexpensive shipping, good return policy.
J&R, B&H

Is there anything that convinced you to buy something when you normally wouldn't? (Evil question, I know.)
Yes, a good sale with free shipping and no hassle return is a good reason for me. I just found a store that has free shipping both ways in case you have to return the item.

Are there any website features that you enjoy that help you shop?
wish lists, they help me save things for future gift giving.

How do you research what you are going to buy?
forums, trade magazines, friends,

What kind of products do you buy? Electronics? Media? Clothes?
electronics, media, some furniture that I have already seen in a store, some clothing I have already touched in a store.

What's the most "personal" (something that you're picky about and usually need to check out in person before you buy) item that you've purchased online?
pretty much everything I buy I have seen in a store first. The only things not seen in store first is impulse buys under $30
