Free shipping offer builds upon company's industry-best 45-day return policy and applies to 18 categories with no minimum purchase required

ALISO VIEJO, Calif., Nov. 24, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Buy.com, The Internet Superstore(TM), today announced it is extending its industry-leading free shipping offer, with no minimum purchase required, to more than 2.6 million products, including books, electronics, jewelry, hardware, apparel and more. Buy.com also offers millions of other products that are eligible for free shipping on orders above $25.

Announced in time for consumers to take advantage on the hot Black Friday and Cyber Monday shopping days, the new free shipping offer spans items in 18 different categories, including:

In addition to its extensive free shipping offers, Buy.com is the largest U.S. retail marketplace to offer a 45-day return policy, which applies to millions of items sold directly by Buy.com, as well as many Marketplace products.  Buy.com provides this return policy with no additional restocking fees (http://www.buy.com/loc/return-policy/67219.html).

Buy.com's industry-best shipping and return policies complement its new "Rakuten Super Points" program, launched last week to reward shoppers with "points" on all Buy.com purchases, redeemable as payment toward future purchases (http://www.buy.com/rakutensuperpoints). Buy.com is awarding 20 times (20x) the points for all Toy & Baby Store purchases, until tonight at midnight.

"Buy.com has always delivered the industry's best free shipping offers on a variety of products and we are now extending that leadership to even more products," said Neel Grover, CEO and president of Buy.com.
