Cyber Shopping Draws An Early Crowd, PayPal Offers 20% Cash Back

Nevermind waiting for the “last minute” shipping prices to kick in. According to Sunday’s comScore Black Friday press release, online sales of consumer electronics from November 1st to 23rd rose 21% from 2006. So last night I decided to visit the Amazon.com bestsellers lists. The bestselling electronics items at Amazon.com was primarily made up of GPS systems and digital cameras. Among the top items, the Top 3 included [1] the Kindle Wireless Reading device (pictured at right), [2] Garmin nüvi 660 Pocket Vehicle GPS Navigator, and [3] the Apple 4 GB iPod nano AAC/MP3 Player Silver (3rd Generation).

The same study of e-commerce spending discovered that Video Games, Consoles & Accessories increased 134% over 2006. The Top 15 Bestselling Video Game items on Amazon.comincluded the following:

1. Super Mario Galaxy
2. Nintendo DS Lite Crimson & Black
3. Wii Nunchuk Controller
4. Wii Play with Wii Remote
5. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Official Strategy Guide
6. Nintendo DS Lite Metallic Rose with Nintendogs Best Friends (NDS Pink Bundle)
7. Brain Age 2: More Training in Minutes a Day
8. Wii Remote Controller
9. Xbox 360 Pro Value Bundle
10. Assassin’s Creed
11. Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games
12. Brain Age
