Online group-buying is convenient and interesting and is able to get cheaper price; therefore, it attracts and is loved by many internet purchase groups. This research, based on “Theory of Planned Behavior” as theoretical foundation, is built with “Customers' Behavioral Intention Mode in Joining Online Group-buying”. Focusing on possible influential behavioral intention's structural variables such as “Attitude”, “Subjective Normative”, and “Perceived Behavioral Control” and performing testifying and analysis. In order for customers to build a complete theoretical mode and foundation relevant to customers' behavioral intention in joining online group-buying regarding possible influential factors in customers' behavioral intention while customers determine to join online group-buying. In structure influential to customers' “behavioral intention” in joining online group-buying, “Attitude”, “Subjective Normative”, and “Perceived Behavioral Control” have positive and significant influence to behavioral intention. Additionally, the research result shows that, in structure of behavioral intention, “Perceived Behavioral Control” is the most influential; “Subjective Normative” is second, and “Attitude” is the least influential. As in “Attitude” perspective, “Individual's Relevant Welfare” is more influential than “Social Relevant Welfare”; amongst “Individual's Relevant Welfare” factors, “Saving Shopping Time”, “Catching Up Fashion”, and “Developing Internet Group-Purchase Industry” are more influential. As in “Subjective Norm” perspective, “Main Group” is more influential than “Sub Group”; amongst “Main Group” factors, “Co-workers”, and “Scholars/Experts” are more influential. As in “Perceived Behavioral Control” perspective, “Self Capability” is more influential than “Advantageous Offer”; amongst “Self Capability” factors, “Sufficient Leisure Time”, “Thorough After-sale Services”, and “Preferential Discounts” are more influential. III In this research, the empirical result shows “Perceived Behavioral Control” variable is most influential; however, as for external variables, “self-capability” has direct and intense impact to customers regarding their “Perceived Behavioral Control” in joining online group-buying, and therefore has affected customers attitude in online group-buying. If they perceive its convenience or capability more positively, it would raise customers' behavioral intention in joining online group-buying.
