you will be able to find out about the item from a genuine user not just the salesperson You can use these facilities to decide to buy a product or service If you're lucky, you'll be providing the necessary information from other online store and you'll purchase the product with better price and better quality Disadvantages If there are advantages, most likely there will be disadvantages Despite the success of purchasing through online shopping stores, there are still some disadvantages that most people complain about These include: • Not assured goods Because everything is shown on the internet, so we don’t know the partners We have to buy the items relying purely on a photograph and description, we cannot feel or see the items we want to buy It can sometimes be quite hard to judge the size or quality of some items purely from a photograph Maybe we will have the risks or the goods we ordered that didn’t have the good quality or enough functions as mentioned in the contract • Warranty issues Most of the electronic items are sold without international warranty So be sure that you have contact with the seller to verify whether the item has the international warranty or not • Shipping Charge Shipping charge and shipping delays are one of the main disadvantage of shopping online Items are generally cheaper in online web store, but the addition of shipping charge makes the price equal or much more expensive than local store • Have to wait Unlike buying at retail stores, you are able to use the product instantly after you buy it, which can be satisfying However, online shopping requires patience to wait for the item to arrive at your door step about to days or even longer depending on the location you've ordered it from If you’re an impatient person, waiting for your product to be delivered can be a pain • To return faulty goods The next disadvantage of shopping online is much harder and takes longer to return faulty goods; we will have to repack it and pay ship back to the seller It can take weeks to exchange a faulty product purchased online • To accept price We have to accept the price that sellers have given But if buying goods in traditional shops, we can bargain If the seller agrees, we’ll get it at a more reasonable price • Privacy Privacy of personal information is a significant issue for some consumers Different legal jurisdictions have different laws concerning consumer privacy, and different levels of enforcement Many consumers wish to avoid spam and telemarketing which could result from supplying contact information to an online merchant To become a smarter online shopper The list can go on and on for the advantages and disadvantages of online shopping Instead of creating a pros and cons list, you should discover ways to become a better online shopper in the event you want to purchase items online Here are some tips on become a smarter online shopper: • Do your research Before making a purchase, research more about the company whether its through a review site or checking on social medial.Brands who value their customers are more likely to be engaged online because they understand the importance of being transparent Does their website look trustworthy?
