What's the best way for you on buying online ?? Via Cards? Why? Via Bitcoin? Why? Via Paypal? Why?

Via BTCitcoin without a doubt. It's the only available solution to my online expenditures due to my geographical location since there are some international sanctions on the country I'm residing so PayPal and most credit cards are not an option to me but even if they were, Paypal have many flaws so as most credit cards plus the fee for each transaction on BTCitcoin is really minimal plus the whole process is easier.

Yeah me too but not all sites offered Bitcoin as Payment ;(

Debit card - no fees, everybody accept them, instant transactions.

if there is a website that accepts bitcoin among other ways i will always choose bitcoin as payment method.

it is easy, safe, fast, cheap and anonymous what else do you want

Isn't using Cards is more likely to get scammed ??

Using fiat money 'cause I hate the volatility nature of bitcoin. When I buy something with bitcoin and the price rose, I feel that I have a loss.

I would always pay with Bitcoin if the merchants offers that possibility to pay him.
Bitcoin is fast, cheap, secure and I just have to give a delivery address which hasn't to be my home address.

I've been using Paypal since 2004 and it's the best payment method for shopping online, it's very easy to use and has the best consumer protections, plus you get a lot of discounts and return postage paid, and it's free.

Obviously I'm going to say Bitcoin, the only problem is that it isn't 100% universal as of yet, but we are growing always :)

If I could buy with bitcoins, it would be useful but since websites in my country offer discounts when I make purchases via cards, I would prefer them as I get about 10% less and if the same is available for bitcoins as well, it would be preferable. I've never tried PayPal as a payment option ever.

I would go with credit card as most stores accept as well it gives me increased discount compared to paypal. I haven't come across of large number of online store that accept bitcoin.

Bitcoin is safest to way to buy in online easily, as you said If you need good discount means you have go with Card way payment only.
Nowdays bitcoin also comes with some discounts in online stores like Ebay, Amazon, Cheapair and many more. So I advice you and all to go with bitcoin payment mode in increase the stability of bitcoin.

BTC is better, you can control everything. So you can decide either to transfer some BTC or not. It is real freedom.  ;D

The cheapest is bitcoin but its not accepted everywhere. credit card and paypal are accepted almost everywhere.

I love transacting with bitcoin but it's still gotta be cards for me. I hate to think the process if I needed a refund on something with bitcoin. By the sounds of it some merchants don't do that at all and give you a credit instead. That don't work for me.

I would say Bitcoin, after purse.io was created, you can find lots and lots of great deals not available in any other way, so there is an incentive to use Bitcoin on that shop. This is what all shops should do, make discounts so people use Bitcoin, otherwise they will not find and incentive and not bother with it.

Bitcoin for sure,pay pal is good and safe too but it has high fees.The only negative about bitcoin is that sometimes i have to wait a lot for the transactions to be completed but this is not enough to make me stop using it.

I would still prefer to buy with credit card as its easy and convenient for me, buying with bitcoin will involve higher shipping costs as there are no sites in my country that accepts bitcoin.

i rather choose bitcoins due to low fee of charge,... ;D

As of now i think CC and paypal gives better service.  The availability of  shop that accept both CC and paypal are far more than shops that accept BTC.  As one of the comment here said, store that accept CC and paypal are everywhere!

Bitcoin,  credit Card,  Paypal.  Some of the client users use some of it.  Meaning not all client they use credit card,  Paypal and Bitcoins.
We have our own best way on buying online. :)

credit card is really vurnerable to be used for wrong thing when the data got stolen by hacker or even carder,they'll possibliy sell it on the dark net and the card will being used for buying thing,and paypal have the same problem

I have to admit that i mostly use paypal for my online buying, as it stands its far easier to use due to pretty much everywhere accepting it. The downsides are obviously the fees and the chragebacks. I have used bitcoin from time to time but as the price has risen significantly since i last used it i cant really bare to get rid of any since id rather hold for now.

True. As for me I use a bitcoin powered debit card through Paypal. Allows me to use bitcoins anywhere Paypal is accepted. I like buying through paypal, they've got the best buyer's protection around. Just be mindful of the exchange costs.

whatever the choice I would still choose bitcoin. use bitcoin is now very extensive. with ease and speed that is owned by bitcoin then there is no reason for me not to use it.

I prefer buying with Bitcoin. It's not accepted everywhere but I have Visa Bitcoion debit card, so with this card I can use it everywhere. It could be also registered on PayPal, so you can spend Bitcoins everywhere where PayPal is accepted. You just have to decide which options is the best and the most convenient for you.

i think its depend on how big volume of transaction on each country,country with big transactuon should better to use bitcoin for online payment,it will take more less fee. and for small transaction volume just use another payment.

i use credit card transaction to buy since online pay through BTC option is not yet enabled in my country. I dont know how it effect if enabled. by the way is there any benefit if we pay through BTC ?
