Anyone use them to buy anything?

Seem to have decent prices on certain stuff and they ship to Canada now.

Well, I'd rather go with NCIX whose shipping is only $10 because they're actually located in Canada than go with Overstock who ships to Canada, but charges what it takes to ship from the US which is usually around $30.

They do have good prices though.

My wife bought a double set of DVD players for our van from there a couple weeks back. They arrived pretty quickly, and shipping was low enough that they were still cheaper than other places who offered free shipping (like NCIX)

Yup, I've bought from overstock.com several times. And not always the kinds of things you'd think...

For example, I went against every fiber of logic in my body, gave into my "frugal" side, and bought a friend a bouquet of flowers after he lost his sister, from overstock.com. Amazingly, the shipping was fast, and my friend said the flowers looked great. For that price, I'd honestly do the same again! :O

If overstock.com sells something you want/need, I would recommend buying from them. I seem to recall that they have a fairly favorable return policy as well (though I've never used it).

Any other good deal sites like this out there?

I check www.woot.com fairly often, mostly because their product descriptions are hilarious.
