Good morning,you guys!
When it comes to shopping online,I think it's not strange to you guys as more and more people begin to go shopping online which is more and more convenient to people's lives,but there are also some advantages and disadvantages when you shop online!
Regard to its advantages,people could save much more time and energy,they needn't go from one supermarket to another supermarket to choose their favourite goods any longer!You could just click your mouse to choose various kinds of goods,and the goods are from various parts of the world not only foods and clothes but also utensils and even houses!
However,everything has its own minus aspects,so does shopping online!Acquainting yourself with the credibility of the sellers is very important,or you will buy some goods that don't content yourself!Sometimes the goods you bought are not same as the pictures posted by the sellers because you couldn't espy the real goods!So there would be some querrel then!Nowadays,there are also some cheaters on the internet cheating others' money,so some people buy goods online may meet with these cheaters and not receive anything after they have payed out!So you should be more careful while you are doing shopping online!
I believe shopping online would be more and more safe from now on!^_^
Happy every day and everything will go well!

I think shopping online is a great way to save time and money.
You can buy just about anything online, and often times, you can get things really cheap or at a lower price than if you would have went to a local store.
Also, the fact that you can buy just about anything you want/need from the comfort of your own home is awesome! You save a lot of time this way, and you don't have to use gas in your car or pay for public transportation.
Unfortunately, I am unable to do much shopping of any kind right now... with no source of income, me and my family can barely afford the necessities. However, in the future when we have everything straightened out and a steady income to rely on, I will definitely be shopping online for a lot of our products!

I once bought a dress online. The dress was beautiful and the quality was described nicely. But when it arrived, the cloth wasn't what i expected. I tried to return it , but i decided to just keep it and use it for casual wear.
However, i never ever tried shopping online anymore. Besides, it's nice to shop in the mall and i like shopping.

And besides it's so enjoyable to shop for clothes. Sometimes, you ended up buying more because your budget was way higher than the actual price.

Thanks for indroducing us with the advantages or disadvantages of doing online shopping. I love do online shopping and well know about it's advantages and disadvantages. Due to it's great advantages i love do online shopping but only some good online store. I never do visit to buy any thing from a new store, where i never visit before and until i don't get any good review about that online store at anywhere on web. As most of new online web store more seems fake or scam. That's why i prefer only some store like http://indiaemporium.com to buy Indian Ethnic wear dress, ebay.in to buy electronic accessories and other more shopping site, which related named on official brand name of products like apple.

I'm an online shopper and honestly, when the first time I tried to purchase something online I feel scared. There are a lot of what if's in my mind. But still, I did tried and it was successful! And from then on, I shopped online as much as I can!
You're right.. Online shopping today is much safer now!

I'm actually shopping online right now on Ebay! I just bought a air of shorts that I just won. I hope it's in pretty good condition and looks exactly as the picture. That's the problem with online buying, you can't try the product and you have no idea if the seller is telling the truth but that's why buying online requires risk. I prefer shopping online though because I can simply window shop within the comforts of my home and I can find so many products that I like which I could never find at the shops. I could wander the shops all day and break my legs and I still wouldn't find a good deal 
So many people are shopping online now because it's so convenient and the prices there are so much better than the shops. But everything has a disadvantage and like you said, you have to really trust the site or the buyer as online shopping is quite risky.

I purchased toy online after reading reviews and seeing photos but i got dis-appointed as i feel if you see the item physically it is good. it gave different feeling and you can change mind and can have more option. i have decided not to purchase any more online. In fact when stores are there and will be giving some discount why to shop online.

Hello JulyKing. I am a die hard online freak. But I keep shopping online to minimum, but do a lot of other transactions through internet banking. I pay my utility bills, insurance premium & property tax all online regularly. I also buy air, train & bus tickets 100% online. I have bought only selected goods like Samsung mobile phone and some accessories mostly branded products online. I also transfer money online for rental of house, loan installments and money that I pay my spouse regularly every month. It may be ok to shop for other items also online but I won't do unless I have verified the credentials an am convinced.
On the plus side, the whole thing is quite hassle free, time & trouble saving. It is also made a lot more secure these days with secure payment gateways, multilevel user authentication etc. But not all online stores & merchants may not provide the same kind safety assurance. So I am very cautious and keep myself updated about safe ways of doing it.
My suggestion would be do it but exercise all caution, including safety & secrecy of your login & authorization details.
