What motivates men to buy from on-line stores?

Online Stores like Amazon don't charge Salestax, free shipping  for >$25 and good return policies and procedures. Additionally their mail-in-rebates are more reliable. Prices are competitive and matches their own price if the price of the good purchased goes down. Some lazy bum like me don't move out of the couch instead prefer to purchase thru online for standard goods

i think women shop less online, because when they have a chance to shop they like going to the malls and stuff to display their clothes and get guys attention and all that fun stuff.

Depends on the age.\nBut most men want technology. Then don't want clothes or other things. Try a radio shack, or best buy gift card so he can get what he want.\n\nTry the new PlayStation, or new xbox. Digital camera.

Because in the end... it's all about sex..Think of it... why do you want to have money?->to feel more secure->to have women want you -> to have sex with women...Why do you go to the gym?-> for health-> for good body->for sex... Why do you get all dressed up before you go out-> to look good -> to attract-> to have sex... It's aaaalll about sex...

Oh, it's wanted. Some want it, and won't stop looking until they find it. The people who do want these values always seem to be overlooked. There are guys out there who want what you want, just have to know where to find them!! =)

men are a secondary market that makes purchasing decisions along with the primary owner of the merchandise. Many times men purchase lingerie for woman and in turn are a valuable frontline for advertisers. Mens discretionary income normally goes to things they want. Womans goes to saving and small priced items.

Glad you ask.  I've wanted to answer this for  many years.\nIf you are a regular shopper, even without buying, and you find merchandise you'd like to have, then wait for a sale, either EOM, (end of month) or semi-annual sales, etc.  When you go to these sales, you may find that item reduced for clearance.  If you remember the original price, you will recognize a value or not.\nThere are customers that buy only this way, at sales.  They are important to a store in clearing discontinued merchandise and or slow movers.  Very important in fashion goods.  Remember that size may determine what is left for a sale.  If one wears a common size, it's a little unlikely to find it on sale.\nBUT,beware of items that you never saw before, if you have shopped before.  Does it not make sense that a store will never have enough "regular" goods marked down to service a sale?  If they do, they've made drastic buying errors and will not survive.\nSo, how do they overcome the need for enough merchandise to run a large scale sale?\nThey buy specially manufactured goods, that may be a lower quality.  Sometimes, they do buy overstocked merchandise from manfacturers.  This can occur from canceled orders by other retailers, because of shipping dates not honored, or mistakes in calculating projected sales of an item, and, "seconds".  Seconds come in different categories, from minor, unnoticible flaws, to nearly unusable.  Most retailers will label seconds in their ads, but unscrupulous ones do not.  \nIn any case, the majority of goods has been specially purchased, and regular markups are maintained on this goods.  Sometimes, the special purchases are on display at inflated prices, 30 days or so prior, then placed on sale.  \nDo not believe 50%-80-90% savings.  Average markup is 40-50%.  In some cases, higher on high risk goods with high markdowns.  Avg. markdowns up to 5%, some are higher on high fashion.  End of runs, with few remaining/remnants can be marked very low.\nMost of these ads insult one's intelligence.\nPOINT:  Be a shopper before sales, on regular, everyday goods.

Are you kidding? That's candyland for men, and if you happen to be a woman, check it out. There's some really neat stuff in there. If you are a single woman, it sure beats going out to a club as far as men to women ratio! Of course, it may be hard to get their attention off the things in the store. Let's see...tools....women...tools...women...We don't stand a chance, girls unless we can tell the difference between a scroll saw and a bandsaw.

If you buy locally, you can go in person to complain or compliment the seller.  That's a huge advantage.\n\nOn the other hand, the disadvantage is that it may cost more or you may not be able to get the exact items you want due to limited selection.

I would always rather go to the store.  I have ended up with so much merchandise of , ahem, questionable quality when purchasing online or out of a catalogues that I don't bother anymore.  The one exception is my dog treats.  I have an allergy dog, and have only found one place to get her treats that she can eat.  They are more than a thousand miles from my home, so I do make that purchase online.

according to forbes.com .....    The number of people making purchases online has jumped 40% in the last nine months-- or, 28 million of the total 92 million Internet users--according to a new study released yesterday by Nielsen Media Research and CommerceNet. The study also found that 13% of those saying they had bought something online did so for the very first time in March.\n\nThe driving force behind much of the growth of electronic commerce were female consumers. The number of women buying online jumped 80% in the past nine months, surpassing the 10 million mark. 41% of the 55 million Internet shoppers are now women, compared with the 36% this level remained at for the past two years. Women now make up 46% of all Internet users, up from the 43% where this figure also hovered for the past two years.
