When you do international business through internet and you need to pay by credit card, how can you solve the problem to add your signature? Without signature, the payment will be considered invalid. But you can not spend thousands of dollars to fly to that place to sign. So at this time, can you use your electronic signature instead? Is this valid? How to add your esign? Please help!!!!!!!!!Thanks. Vielen Danke!

What are some tips for purchasing electronic items of any sort in order to be an informed consumer?

Wise Idiot asked:


this is particularly hard, due to the advent of the World Wide Web since there are so many venders available to buy from, clearly reliability is in question.
also which electronic products should be purchased new vs. old
should there be a return policy? if so, with which types of products
Lastly, is state-of-the-art necessarily better? what are the limits on how old or obsolete a product should be before it needs replacement?

Bringing consumer electronic devices to UAE and Qatar?

Faras asked:


I am hoping for soon relocation to the region, and wondering is it worth bringing personal consumer electronics (laptop, digital camera, etc) from Europe, i.e. are there customs procedures to be aware of and are these items easily replaceable in UAE and Qatar in terms of prices when comparing to Europe average. I am aware that UAE and Qatar are well supplied, I am just wondering on convenience.
