    The Cons of Online Shopping


    Online Shopping has become a popular shopping method ever since the internet has
    declared a takeover. There are many individuals that are looking for other amazing
    alternatives shopping and online shipping is just the fix for that. There are many Pros and
    Cons of online shopping, besides many advantages such as cheap prices, time saving and
    there are many choices, online shopping also has a bad side so many people are not careful
    and careful in choosing an online store that sells products.

    More people than ever before are using the web to shop for a wide variety of items,
    from houses and groceries to shoes and airplane tickets. In April 2017, 40 percent of internet
    users were buying several things each month online, and that figure is expected to double by
    2020. Being able to shop and buy online comes with several significant benefits, but it comes
    with a few disadvantages as well that you should know about, a few disadvantages might
    deter customers from buying goods online:

     You can't try things on. If you're buying a clothing item, you can't feel the material,
    try it on, and see how it's made. Unless you know your measurements and are familiar
    with the brand of clothing offered, this could end up being a bad experience. Most
    stores online make it easy for you to return your item for this reason. Clothing
    websites usually post detailed measurement and fabric information to minimize
    returns.
     You can't always talk to someone immediately. If you have a question about what
    you're looking at, you may have to wait 24 hours to get a question answered. This
    situation is improving as many sites have added "instant chat" to address concerns and
    answer questions on the spot.
     Privacy and security: Privacy and security are legitimate concerns for any online
    shopper, but there are precautions you can take to make sure your transaction is a safe
    one. For example, paying attention to HTTPS protocols, installing free spyware
    removal tools, knowing how to identify online scams and hoaxes, surfing
    anonymously, and keeping your web usage private are all smart ways to address any
    privacy and security issues.
     There is no guarantee of delivery.
    Websites rely on third-party shipping companies to deliver their products. There is no
    guarantee provided that the product will arrive in usable condition. Insurance, returns,
    and replacements are usually provided, but if these options must be used, it delays a
    customer’s use of that item. When you go to a store, you know exactly what you’re
    bringing home that day.
     Shipping charges can be higher than the product cost.
    The item a customer wants to purchase is $4.95. The cost to ship that item is $5.95.
    That means the consumer cost of shopping online is more than double for that item
    when compared to shopping in-person.
    Online shopping cons show that this process is usually beneficial to companies and
    consumers. Besides that the online shopping give the advantages like prices are typically
    cheaper, shipping is fast and the products arrive in good condition. There are times, however,
    when online shopping can also be a negative experience. So, be a smart buyer, check and pay
    attention to the product that you want to buy always connect to the seller, and the important
    things is ask to your friend that have an experience about online shopping, maybe they have a
    good recommendation for your shopping needs.
