Shopping on line can be easy, simple and save you lots of money. It can also take a lot of your time, frustrate you, and result in unwanted purchases. Now the same can be said for regular high street shopping, but with the vast opportunity presented by the Internet it will pay you to spend a few minutes reading this and understanding how to better optimize your Neckar shopping experience:

1. Compare - without doubt the biggest advantage that the Neckar offers shoppers today is the ability to compare thousands of Neckar at a time. This is a great thing, but not necessarily all the time! Too much can be daunting at times so take advantage of the great comparison sites and where possible let them do the hard work for you.

2. Research - if it has been said it will be on the internet. Ignorance is no longer a justifiable reason for buying the wrong thing. Take the time to research in detail everything that you could possible want to know about

3. Testimonials - don't know anybody that has bought a Neckar? Wrong! If the Neckar is good the internet will let you know. Use the Internet as a friend and get testimonials before you buy.

4. Questions - Got a question about Neckar then search the Forums, FAQ's, Blogs etc. Don't be afraid to ask .....

5. Reputation - Never heard of the company selling Neckar? Don't worry, no reason why you should know every company in the world, but you know someone that does! Use the internet to find out what people are saying about Neckar and build up a picture of their reputation for sales, returns, customer service, delivery etc.

6. Returns - still worried that even after all of the above your Neckar wont be what you want? Check out the returns policy. There is so much competition now that someone, somewhere is bound to offer the terms that you are comfortable with.

7. Feedback - happy with your Neckar then let people know, after all you are depending on others people input in your buying decision, so why not give a little back.

8. Security - check for the yellow padlock on the Neckar site before you buy, and the s after http:/ /i.e. https:// = a secure site

10. Payment - ready to pay for your Neckar, then use your credit card or PayPal! Be aware of companies that don't accept them, there may be genuine reasons but given the huge amount of choice you have when buying online there is no reason at all not to buy via credit card or PayPal.

{{Infobox_river | river_name = Neckar | image_name = Neckar near Heidelberg.jpg | caption = Neckar river near Heidelberg. | origin = [Black Forest | mouth = [Rhine | basin_countries = [Germany | length = 367 km | elevation = 706 m | discharge = 145 m³/s | watershed = ±14,000 km² -->The Neckar is a 367-km long river, mainly flowing through the southwestern States of Germany of Baden-Württemberg, but also a short section through Hesse in Germany, a major right tributary of the Rhine, which it joins at Mannheim. Rising in the Black Forest near Villingen-Schwenningen in the conservation area Schwenninger Moos at a height of 706 m above sea level, it passes through Rottweil, Rottenburg, Tübingen, Nürtingen, Plochingen, Esslingen am Neckar, Stuttgart, Ludwigsburg, Marbach, Heilbronn and Heidelberg, before discharging into the Rhine at Mannheim (at 95 m above sea level).

Along its valley in the Odenwald hills, many castles can be found, like :de:Burg Hornberg and :de:Burg Guttenberg in Haßmersheim, but also the closed nuclear power station :de:Kernkraftwerk Obrigheim which is due to be dismantled by 2023. After passing Heidelberg, the Neckar discharges on average 145 m³/s of water into the Rhine which makes the Neckar its 4th largest tributary, and the 10th largest river in Germany.

The name Neckar was derived via Nicarus und Neccarus from Celtic languages Nikros, meaning wild water or wild fellow. Since about 1100, Black Forest wood was transported by timber rafting, e.g. to Holland for the use in shipyards.

During the 19th century, traditional horse-drawn boats were replaced by steam boats that used a 155-km long chain in the river to pull themselves upstream. The railway made it possible to transport timber to the port of Heilbronn, limiting timber rafting to the lower part of the Neckar after 1899. Due to 11 locks, :de:Großes Rheinschiff ships up to 1500t could travel to Heilbronn in 1935.

By 1968, the last of 27 locks, at Deizisau, was completed, making the Neckar navigable for cargo ships about 200 km upstream from Mannheim up to the river port of Plochingen, where the Fils River joins and the Neckar bends, taking a Northwestern instead of a Northeastern direction. The other ports are in Stuttgart, Heilbronn and Mannheim.

The river's course provides a popular route for cyclists, especially during the summer months. Its steep valley sides are used as vineyards, to cultivate mainly Trollinger.
