I also placed my first order with Zappos.com, after playing with the site lots of times. Being in the right place at the right time (i.e., I follow @Zappos on Twitter) means I'm a VIP member, so free overnight shipping instead of free ground shipping. Alexi had some helpful comments about shoe styles a few weeks ago, so she helped me pick out what to order. We'll see if it works. Shoes seem a better fit for me there than clothes; I want to try ordering jeans from them, but I have no way to tell which of the fifty brands I've never heard of will fit comfortably. :-) They say they're happy for me to order and return, at no cost to me, until I find something I like, but that sounds hugely wasteful of my time and their money.
