Bad experiences of online shopping

    I had one recently that has led me to be a lot more vigilant regarding who to buy from, especially with expensive items.

    I was buying radio equipment from an online retailer in Germany. After proceeding to checkout and paying for all items, I was sent an email stating that one product was not in stock but would be dispatched when it arrived. Estimated at 4 MONTHS! I emailed back stating that I wanted to cancel but to no avail. Ended up having to go through paypal for a refund. I then received a torrent of abuse from the retailer because I reported him.

    Anyone else had similar experiences?
