Online Purchases

I have made several online purchases over the last fortnight.
– Replacement cable for Ultimate Ears 5 Pro canalphone
– EU Law textbook
– Conflict Studies textbook (4x)
– Sensation Black Antwerp ticket

It’s better to purchase textbook online because its cheaper and only takes about a week to deliver from Britain. In Amsterdam bookstore, it is often around a third more expensive…which is quite substantial given the cost of textbook itself! So i gathered up three others in my Conflict Studies class to bulk purchase 4 textbooks in total to save cash from bulk shipping. We were all satisfied and saved around 7 Euro each.

As for the replacement cable for my canalphone, yeah, i really need it. I looked for it in Ultimate Ears official site and it’s quite expensive for just a cable. So i bought it off ebay for $19 including shipping cost. I haven’t received the cable as yet… For now, i’m using the shorter cable which just barely long enough to go from hip to ears.

The Sensation Black ticket went out well. I bought it at teleticketsale, which previously haven’t used it before. I opted for a real ticket instead of e-ticket with my Visa card. Shouldn’t be long till i receive it.
