I prefer seeing what I'm about to buy in person, so I like to shop offline...But only if its for something I actually care about.

Online shopping is good too, though.

Well, I bought my '69 Cadillac- photos below- from ebay (but only because the car was located less than 50 miles away and I was able to check it out in person).

Anyway, I voted "A little of both."

Offline, because you can actually SEE (in 3D) what you are about to buy and you don't have to pay those really high shipping charges either!

the only time I buy stuff online really is if they're only available online and I can't find it in any stores around me.

Online... sure, you pay for shipping, but it's just so much easier.

You must know original & revival casts, soundtracks, performance runs, dates, theatres, numbers, how many Tony Awards A Chorus Line won.
You must be Broadway.
That's right bitches. I AM Broadway.
