Technology and fast internet has changed the way we shop. With the proliferation of online shopping sites, a large number of people no longer have the time or patience to go to a store, stand in queues, or search for items. Thousands of online shopping sites are being created every day. Flight ticket, TV, food, clothes, furniture and anything can reach our home with the effort of a few clicks.
The convenience of choosing what you like from a convenient location makes online shopping more accessible to people. But along with the advantages, online shopping also has disadvantages.
Quality check
The advantage of purchasing directly from the shops is that you can be assured of quality. The reality of the products you see online can be different. Haven't you read the news where the person who ordered the iPhone got a piece of wood delivered home? In the case of clothes, one can't be sure of the quality of fabric and even the size might turn out to be different. To overcome this dilemma, online sites are increasingly promoting easy return clothing.
Expert opinion
The main advantage of in-shop purchases is that we have a sales assistant with us. The company staff will be there to tell us the features of whatever we are planning to buy. But that is not the case with online shopping. You will have to rely on online reviews only. But now many sites have changed. The service of online assistant called instant chat service is available on online shopping sites.
Wait for delivery
Many people do not feel at peace until they get what they purchased. Sometimes delivery may get delayed. But direct purchase has no such difficulties.
Shipping cost
Another problem is that you will have to pay the same shipping charges as the purchased materials. Major online sites may waive this, but heavier products may incur a shipping charge.
