How much do you use internet shopping for your horse stuff?

[Chris - resident queen of shops]

I rely on internet shopping more & more for my horse shopping fix.

As well as tack & equipment, I also order & pay for my bedding & wormers online - makes life very easy when it is delivered to the door & equals more time for riding!

The only thing I can't get online is feed - although I'm sure some enterprising company will sort this out soon.

So what about you? What do you buy online & where do you like shopping?

What websites do you use?
Thanks

Dear God Yes!!
I'm a big e-bayer. I'm always checking for sweet deals on stuff that's always in demand. With new students showing up and a baby on the way, I've always got my eye open for good deals on boots, half chaps, helmets, bridles and sheets. It certainly doesn't give you the fun of a social outing with all the horsey girls, but it sure does add convenience and is very fast. It's also a great way to research before I want to try something new. If I want a new saddle, I research it, borrow someone's to try, then call my tack store to order. Lol they love my "hard sell".

I love Ebay way to much. But there is another website www.cebg.ca they have horses for auction as well as thins you can find on ebay but not as much stuff. I have not purchased from this website though.

I buy practically everything horsey on ebay. If there were more tack stores around I would probably shop there more, but the internet has such a bigger selection and such better deals. Plus I love when I get packages in the mail!

I prefer to go to a store and mooch, I tend to get together with horsey friends and make a day of it. I do sometimes get stuff on line, like wormers or bargains from eBay, but I like to try stuff on for size before I buy. Same with most equipment I buy for the horses, I like to check the quality before I part with my cash!

I use ebay and have bought from Dover, State Line Tack, Dressage Extensions and Equissentials. I forget the name of the german tack shop that is online?

I also am addicted to eBay. I have purchased most of my horsey items through eBay and in return, I never pay the actual retail price for anything anymore. If I can't find what I want on eBay (which is rare), I Google it and search around for the best deal. Usually the only reason I go into our actual tack store is if I am checking something out to see if I like it enough to get it on eBay, or if I need something right away.
