As we all know, online shopping is becoming more and more popular in recent years. We can buy almost everything with the help of internet. Some people think that online shopping is convinent, while others are worried about the security of it.What do you think of online shopping? Are you an experienced shopper?

I enjoy shopping online. Actually right now I tend to buy products via the net because the price can be cheaper and I can have more options. I can buy something via the net which I can not find it here. It is very convenient. I am not worried about the security. Actually I am already a VIP to an online store:)
I love China

I love shopping. More than online shopping, I prefer shopping at the malls. But I do some online shopping rarely..The last time I bought a product I was not satisfied with its quality. So I stopped online buying for the past 2 months. May be I can start back again if I find any interesting prouct.

Well ,I have the same experience with you. I used to buy some cosmetics online,the package is tough and they were nearly out of date! From then on, I was very careful when shopping online. Now I buy products only from certain websites. Thanks for your replay!Have a nice day!

Yes. I love. I have bought things from Amazon.com, ebay.in and many other Indian shopping websites. Indian shopping websites have a long way to go but, I still love shopping online due to the convenience factor. It is easy to just order online, sit at home and receive your products. Lot of people worry about shipping prices, but how much do you think it will to fill up your fuel tank to go for shopping and not to mention the amount of money you spend on restaurant and movie after you shop for a while. It's all waste of money. Instead of all that, you can just place an order on a good website. Online shopping saves a lot of money especially when you buy consumer durables. However, we need to be careful while purchasing Apparel products. Apparel is probably the only thing I purchase by going to physical shopping malls. I hope that helps.

I don't use to shopping online, one of my colleagues enjoy of this, she said that could face the computer hold night just for shopping online. Why she should waste hold night to do this? As she saying enter the site of online shopping, after enter the keyworks she should check the detail page by page. I think shopping on street is tried enough,but shopping online seems more tried as my colleague do.
And the most important thing is security, and the product's quality, service after sold, both of them let me try to shopping online.

Yes, I do shop online a lot. It is very convenient. I usually buy 2nd hand books, brand new gadgets, and other accessories. I usually buy at ebay and multiply site or from any reputable sites. In that way, I don't worry about scammers.
Hope it helps.

I love shopping online cause, you get a lot of stuff in huge varieties. It's convenient,and we get to pick and choose everything, all sitting in front of your desktop PC. I usually double check the site from which I ordering my products, and buy stuff from trusted sites like Amazon.com.

Hi, sunflower 
I have only tried buying airline tickets online. I found it really convenient. I am not sure if I will like shopping online, though. Maybe it's because I do not have much knowledge yet with regards to keeping my credit card safe and knowing which websites are safe. I am not an experienced online shopper.
Have a nice day!

You are right.Online shopping is very convenient.I think you'd better choose a good website while shopping since you are not an experienced online shopper.My friends told me that ebay and etsy.com are good website for shopping online.Good luck!

I dont like online shopping e.g. in clothes because its difficult to distinguish the sizes and the styles of the clothing. I think that every other countries has different sizes. I experienced when my friend bought me clothes online and she preferred my size but its not exactly the same as my size.I rather prefer direct shopping like going to the mall.

Online shopping is really very popular nowadays. Many of my friends had the experience about online shopping. Some feel very well. The others feel not good. Recently i want to buy a gift for my boyfriend at this online store www.favordeals.com .There have kinds of electronic gadgets. Some of them seem very cool. Who can give me more suggestion about online shopping or the online store? Thanks.

I don't shop online. I have gotten things off ebay but other than that I prefer shopping in the stores. I can find way better deals by actually taking myself into the store and browsing. I already have to go to the store to buy my groceries so why not get it all done at once. We got a new fridge about 2 months ago and I tried shopping online but everything was drastically way more expensive. I saved over $300 by going to the store and getting it myself. In my opinion buying online has alot of hidding fees. I am also not going to pay shipping on something that I could go and get.

I love shopping online, for several reasons. You can research prices and performance of the items you want to buy through price comparison websites and product reviews. As online stores have lower overheads, you can usually get the best prices. If you're buying gifts, there's less chance of making a duplicate purchase, as you have the whole web at your disposal, not just the high street or mall.
I know some people are concerned about online security, but if you use reputable sites you should be fine. I've never had problems. Someone told me not to save card details online, as this is how most instances of identity theft occur. Worth bearing in mind.
I don't shop online for groceries, as I prefer to select my own products, but for most other items I'll always try to buy online efore hitting the local shops.

ya of course i always love shopping online but what the thing i hate is "i dont have enough money to buy things"
what i do when i don't have enough money in my account is "i just move all around to eliminate the word "bore".
i always shop on ebay because it's nice site with some good security and many more.
and i even bought some item on ebay,but it takes lots of time to get the product.
thanks,bye,have a nice day
