Looking for info on oneshare.com
The site lets you buy a single share of stock in many many companies for a $39 fee (or less if it's on sale!)

Wanted to know is this is a good price for a single stock purchase and has anyone had direct experience with them?

This was one website I thought was too good to be true -- boy was I wrong! Simple, up front, and no extra "paperwork" to be used. You simply log in to the ebates.com website and select where you want to shop (lands end, barnes and noble, coldwater creek, drugstore.com, etc) and the site launches your shopping site. Any purchase you make from the shopping site is credited to your account. 4 times a year you are sent a check based on the amount of accrued dollars in your account.

Each shopping website sets its own % rate on rebates (they range from 1% - 30%) and can change during the year based on specials. You do receive emails telling which websites are running specials (during ebates birthday week last year, many websites doubled their rebate %). Another really nice feature of ebates.com is that they list current coupon/promotions for their websites also so you can launch your website, use the online coupon, and get your % rebate with one click!

It is well worth checking out the list of included vendors -- there are hundreds! Very popular well-known ones! The checks cash just fine and I love getting paid for places I online-shop anyway!

LOVE IT!

Excellent site! Agian, like other reviewers I thought it was too good to be true.

My father pointed me at this site -- he runs a pc update and fix-it business! He recommended I remove an older program that cleans up the system (deleted cookies, tracking software, etc.) He not only recommended certain programs but highly recommend to get them through filehippo.

Free, dependable, and no registering! 100% recommended!

Updated review from June 2022. I have to change my review from 5 * to 1*. Ebags seems to have been purchased by Samsonite. The site and service has suffered! The site still have ebags products and Samsonite products.
BUT with 3 orders (1 as a guest and 2 thru my account) NOT ORDER CONFIRMATION email is sent. You have no order number, no confirmation of order, and no way to check status. There is now NO CUSTOMER SERVICE PHONE NUMBER available on the website. Btw, to to google and type in "ebags customer service phone number" and you will get it. I emailed customer service twice with no response.

This one amazing company is now a big Don't Order. Sad.

Ebags is an amazing place for luggage, bags and backpacks. Biggest names in luggage are out there in sets and individually. If you compare prices this site is a must!

I personally have to recommend ebags own brand of luggage, rolling duffels, and backpacks. Amazing quality, fantastic design, durable and sturdy construction and most of the pieces come with a lifetime warranty! We ordered 4 rolling suitcases for an extended air trip (where we each got one and only bag to bring). Ebags cases were so brilliantly set up and came with inserts to divide the larger storage areas if needed. Incredible strong wheels and pull handles! Can't recommend them highly enough.

This is the site I use for all my luggage purchases. I am a big comparison shopper and will look at deals from local brick stores and every online site I trust. I come back to ebags every time!

Lands End carries some of the best quality, everyday clothing we have found!

I am a mom of 2 and especially love the kids clothes that look like kids clothes but are not suggestive, obnoxious, or obscene (ever try to find a bigger girls' dress that doesn't show cleavage? Ever try to find a bigger boys' t-shirt with no swear words or alcohol advertisements?)

The customer service at Lands End is unparalled! They are fantastic, even the on-line chat help representative is a real person! My favorite type of jeans were discontinued and the on-line help rep told me the item # of the closest pair in regards to fit and length.

Returns at local Sears stores are an amazing way to save return shipping costs. Excellent sales, excellent quality, and different sales on-line than in stores!

Spilsbury is a website/catalog specializing in puzzles: jigsaw puzzles, 3-D puzzles, and all the stuff that can go with them (puzzles sorter and storage boards, puzzle glue, etc.) Great selection!

I think their pricing is on the high side but the bundle prices (pick 3 of this kind or size) and their clearance items still make it a better buy thank full price puzzles from a store. They also have some fun smaller items that are good for bday gifts and stocking stuffers!

spilsbury.com, bitsandpieces.com and jigsawpuzzles.com are all owned/run from the same company!

greatnonprofits.org was recommended by a magazine if you want to check out a charity before you donate to them. I was pretty underwhelmed by this site.

Once you put in the name of your charity/non-profit there is some basic info provided. The majority of the infor is comments via bulletin board posts made by anyone. You are asked to say if you are a volunteer, board member, chair person, etc. Well sorry, I can say anything I want about a charity but that doesn't make it true.

I recommend givewell.org instead as it provides facts and sources for its info.

Excellent selection of shoes, inserts, and insoles. Lots of varieties of shoes for those with feet problems and those without!

If you have a shoe/foot problem there are tons of options available through this site. The prices are very reasonable for the items - still expensive for the specialty stuff, but less expensive than usual. I had to go to a specialty store and get measured for some insoles -- $78 for one pair in the store. I found the exact same brand, style, size for $38 at feet relief.

Excellent products, fast shipping, and good customer service.

HerRoom specializes in women's lingerie, bras, undergarments, and sleepwear. In addition to well known name brands for women they offer a very limited amount of men's underwear. My best use of this website was to come in with a brand or style I was trying to find and price compare. They often have great sales, too.

I was a little surprised at some of the racier lingerie that was out there, but since it's been out there for years, they obviously have filled a need.

One service note that surprised the heck out of me was, I returned an item and left a not-so-great review of it. A website rep left a comment after mine telling me that based on my needs/requirements that this was the wrong garment and I should try item #123.

Pretty impressive response.

Fat Brain Toys is an amazing website with wonderful innovative products for kids. We were looking for some challenging games and activities for our kids and found some unique kits, award winning games, books, and science sets. Our orders were confirmed, estimated ship dates sent, confirmation of ship dates sent, and a follow up message after every order to ensure all items had been received.

If you are looking for unique items for kids -- this is the place to look.

Here is the best part, Fat Brain wants people to leave good and bad feedback regarding the items they carry. We bought a solar kit from them that, unfortunately, was poor quality due to the manufacturing of the individual pieces. We wrote a scathing review of this one item in our order. Fat Brain obviously checks out the reviews because after our posting, THEY contacted US and appologized for the poor quality of the item and gave us the option of contacting the manufacturer or contacting them for a replacement kit -- no questions asked! THAT is GREAT customer service!

Giftly lets sender gift money to someone and the someone can choose the gift card retailer. Then giftly sends the card. WORST redemption process ever for the recipient -- SKIP this vendor!
Received email of giftly card from family member in different state - great idea I thought. BAD implementation -- what I had to go through to redeem is ridiculous. Received my card from store of my choice. Call to activate -- yes, totally get that. But to set PIN to use the card you have to go to the website. Guess what? Website doesn't have PIN set option. Customer service doesn't answer, menu option says to set PIN on website, you're supposed to email them with your problem (really? I wanted to walk out the door and use my card)
If you google how to set PIN it says to call customer service (see above about what happens when you call customer service). Continued to google and found link to link to link of ** differently named website ** on where to set pin. BUT still don't know how to have merchant run card (debit? Credit?)
Oh, and yes, they charge you if you don't use card after 12 months. That should be illegal.
BAD system when so many others are easy and straightforward to use.
PASS on this and find another gift card system! 100% say use someone else!

1st Review
Ordered some photo gifts (umbrella, golf umbrella, decorative photo flags, coin purses) and they are AWESOME!

One thing I did not care for is that products are AIRMAILED from Hong Kong. Ok fine, I don't care where it came from but I wish I didn't have to pay the airmail costs. The freebies for signing up for an account are amazing!

Updated Review
Going to have to update my previous review -- have had wonderful products and have been very happy with items. I love them and friends have loved the gifts.

However, customer service is HORRIBLE! They do not issue refunds to credit cards!

My first interaction with them was on a quote for a bulk order. They would not honor quote & tried to up price by 25% saying the quote expired and the new bulk price was set. Our organization walked away.

My latest has been over an order cancellation -- they charged my credit card when I placed the order and then I cancelled it (I ordered wrong size, totally my fault). But they want a cancellation fee -- still no problem because order mistake was my fault. But they wont' refund my credit card (even the amount less the c. Fee) another rep cash-credited my account for a next purchase -- Yeah - great resolution. But a 2nd rep removed it when I asked how to apply it to a further purchase. They won't call me. If I can get my money back either way I am leaving --

They are losing a prolific customer who leaves reviews. Just went from 4 starts to 1.

www.kidsbowlfree.com is part of the AMF Bowling Lanes family. The website and summer prgram are for real! You register your kids with your (Parent) email address and you get emails/coupons/codes for free bowling games.

The site advertises -- and fulfills! -- 2 free games of bowling each day during the summer. The nice thing is you also get lots of coupons and specials during the rest of the year. Now, realize that 2 free games of bowling does not include shoe rental. Other specials include a set price for all you can bowl during a set period of time, discounts on birthday parties, food/bowling packages, etc.

This was a really great thing when my kids were smaller and we needed indoor things to do! Of course the caveat is you have to have an AMF Bowling alley around you!

Mixed review on this site. They sell area rugs and lots of them. They have all the name brands and all available colors and sizes. We found the rugs we wanted and looked them up by manufacterer and name.

Very good on the prices. If your order goes without a hitch this website is a fantastic find.

Medium to low on the customer service. If you have a little problem, prepare to invest some time to get it fixed.

Example: We placed an order and they shipped us the wrong rug. It had the tag on it for the rug we ordered but it was the wrong rug (wooo - some ugly seashell thing!). We took pictures of the tag and the pattern and sent them with our order # and what went wrong. It took 11 emails before I had my husband call and talk to a person (who wanted us to wait 3 days to talk to our e-mail contact) and then a supervisor. The supervisor was great and ordered a return kit and ordered our correct rug. It shouldn't take that many communications to get problems fixed.

Never had a problem. We have bought DVDs, CDs, patio umbrellas, storage bins, rolling closet racks, leather coat, and earrings. We were never in a hurry for anything but also never had any order that was long on ship time. I do check here for comparison pricing -- sometimes great, sometimes not. Always worth a look around though.

Love it, love it, love it. The clothing from Coldwater Creek is first rate -- excellent quality and size range. There is no upcharge in prices for petite, women's, or tall clothing. The organization of the website is very good and so are the search criteria (you can search by size, color, just pants, only casual dresses, etc) -- it makes navigating and specific item searhes very easy.

I love the website a little more than the regular catalogues and stores due to the selection. Coldwater Creek tends to take a color palate and use it for a season. So if their palate is red/black/white and you love those colors, you will find the majority of the clothing to your liking for that season. However, if the color palate is orange/green/tan and you don't like that, there isn't much else available. This is where the website comes in. It is great to be able to look at styles and colors from the previous season(s) in addition to the current season's merchandise.

The customer service at Coldwater Creek is amazing! They obviously take their customer's satisfaction seriously -- and they work at making the customer happy. The telephone reps are wonderfully informed and can and will search not only warehouse but store inventories to find the right size/color for particular items that you want.

An amazing but true story, I purchased a very fancy evening dress for a charity event that didn't fit. When I called to order a different size, there were none left in the warehouse. The customer service rep took down my name, phone number, item number and size and said she'd check store inventories every now and then to see if someone returned this dress in my size. 3 weeks later I got a call from that rep that a dress in my size had turned up in a store in another time zone! Did I want it? YES! The other store called me, took my credit card number and shipped the dress to me the next day!

One last thing about the website, sign up for e-mail alerts! E-mail alert customers often get 1 day notice before the general public about sales (for example take 50% off everything on the website!), free shipping, and clearance markdowns.

Excellent company, excellent website.

Love it! Lots of everyday products, health items, cosmetics, and odd things that are fabulously priced. Lots and lots of selection!

Our family has ordered cosmetics, eye drops that were no longer carried by our local stores, facial massagers, pillow chilling inserts, vitamins, lotions, and (believe it or not) mashmallow shooters! (Found those by accident but really cheap compared to other sites!)

FAST shipping, excellent, service, great selection, personal items come wrapped so no embarassing box-opening scenarios!

Excellent website with name brands of lingerie and undergarments.

I have used this site many times with zero problems. I often find a favorite brand or style and found it at Bare Necessities for less than the cost at a local store. Sign up for the email notifications because they contain a lot of sale notifications and discounts.

I have also used abebooks.com trying to find older titles from some favorite authors. For the most part I have been very pleased with the selection, the prices, and the speed of shipping.

One complaint though, one of the providers from a previous order was Canadian and this was not disclosed during the order process -- for every book shipped and charged I was charged an international money conversion fee. Let the buyer beware and make sure you're choosing a US supplier unless you are ok with the additional fees.

LOVE this website. Got referred to it from our Wii gaming system(!) which gave us an error code and this website name. We actually used the owner's manual and followed all their steps to get things set up/connected. But life is always more complicated than the owners manual.

This site has an option for chat help that actually features REAL PEOPLE! Been greatly ticked off at sites that use (supposed) artificial intelligence chat interactions. Nintendo even used a temporary software download to control my pc and speed up the identify-the-problem-process.

Excellent site for troubleshooting with lookup possible by error codes. But, a real person beats an error code lookup any day!
