What do you think advantages and disadvantages of Internet shopping are? Have you ever had any trouble regarding to the shopping?
Disadvantages: 1) You can see, "feel" and try the product before you buy it. This is true especially for clothes and furniture. 2) Online security. There are many fraudulent sites out there and not all the legitimate ones are secure. Advantages: 1) You can shop from the convenience of your own home. No need to drive or walk to a store. 2) You can visit multiple online merchants and find the best price for a product without much effort.
Adv: You can get them for cheap Dis: You can't test the product and pick a choice Waste of time sitting before internet and searching hours for discounts
Advantages: 1.Because you're not geographically limited, you can buy almost anything from anywhere. For example I can buy on Amazon books which I will never find at my local bookstore. Ebay is another great place where, for example, I bought a timer which I couldn't find at my local fitness store. 2.You can often cut the middleman, unlike traditional stores or superstores where there is a wholesaler, a supplier etc. For example an author can sell his ebook directly from his own website if he wants to, and on sites like Etsy you can buy handcrafted items directly from artists. You can help musicians by buying their music directly from them or on sites like bandcamp.com. So there's more chance to express social justice when shopping online. 3.Anonymity - I personally hate it when I get to a store and a commission-driven sales assistant sticks to my a** and won't leave me alone until I make it clear that I can actually take care of myself. That's why I'd rather press a few keys and - voila - the package is at my doorstep. This can also help people who'd buy stuff which they wouldn't want to be seen with (adult stuff for example.) Disadvantages: 1.Although you save the trip to the store, you often need to pay S&H (Shipping and Handling) for your product as well as taxes when delivering from abroad, and that can get pretty hefty. 2.If you buy electric stuff, it can sometimes be complicated to leverage the product guarantee if there's no dealer in your country 3.If you order fragile items such as china, glass etc. there's risk of breakage during shipment 4.Sometimes it takes too long before the item arrives. That's why, for example, if there's a book I want to read right now I'd rather buy at my local store if I can find it. Hope that helps
Adv. You find a wide range of item you want. its safe your time and money. Dis. The only one disadvantage is that you can't try the product before buying.
Disadvantages: You can make deal with some cheater Advantages: You can buy rare things You can buy cheaper
No, there are very less losses of internet shopping. It has very much transparency. if any body want to buy a business or any things then it has much trust then usual methods. So it's a very good idea.
Waiting for shipment is the worst part and the best part is the amount you save through online purchase.
Advantages: - Checking out is quick - You don't have to deal with other customers or employees; sometimes a plus - On your own time, convenience; it doesn't matter if it's 2a.m. in the morning - Depending on where you are buying from, you can read reviews from other buyers who bought the same item/review the seller's rating - You can research on prices, plus shipping prices. Disadvantages: - Waiting for shipment - Can't test out the product before hand or 'see and touch' it in person, if you're buying shoes for instance - hope that the size 7 is REALLY a size 7. - Scam sites to watch out for
Advantages are basically convenience, more to chose from and usually a cheaper price, also being able to do the research on items on the spot. Disadvantages would be waiting for the product, you can't feel it before getting it, security.
Advantages: - Convenient. My shopping won't be limited for factors like whether, location, opening time (most online shops are open 24*7), etc. - No carrying. I don't need to finish my shopping ahead of the planned time due to I cannot carry more things . The carrier service will simply send my goods to the place I want them to be. - Time saving. I don't need to spend extra time on the way. Disadvantage: - Specifications unclear. Pics and descriptions are sometimes not sufficient enough to decide whether a good is the right one for me, especially for clothes and shoes. But thanks for the live chat technology, today I can talk with the seller for more detailed info. when choosing. - Less fun. I used to shop with the girls, and when we do this, it's actually something more than "buying things". We talk, discuss and having coffee together in the afternoon, while when do it on the Internet, I cannot find so much fun.
advantage: you can buy the things you want anywhere, anytime. disadvantage: you have to wait for a long time for the item/s to be delivered.
