So..I love online shopping because it's less time consuming and more flexible. I was just wondering, have you ever bought something that didn't correspond? What's your opinion on online shopping?

Hi Theoana! I have some doubts about online shopping. I have tried buying clothes online in two different instances and it didn't turn out the way it looks in the pictures. Hahaha! It was a loose blouse though so there was no problem with the fitting. However, the blouse seem too short for my body. hahaha! I have long torso so everytime I wear it, there's this small part of my waist that's shown off because my jeans are mostly low-waist. I only wear those blouses if I ran out of clothes for the month especially if I not in the mood to do my laundry and all my clothes are due for washing. haha!

Cash on Delivery (COD) services is really good. You're truly guaranteed with your purchase and your money. We have that here as well. Unfortunately my place is not on the list for online shopping with COD services. COD is only offered to places in the Metro here and I'm in the province. :D

Well it mostly depends on the site where you do yor shopping. Such unpleasant situations may happen, and in order to avoid them, I usually look a lot at the product I want to buy from all its possible angles. I just want to make sure my money won't be wasted.
Also , there are some companies that accept you pay the money for the product when it arrived at your residence. I really like this method and I have always paid like this, and never directly through a card before having seen the product.
It happen one time that I bought a pair of high heels and their number wasn't fitting my actual number. I returned them back and I received my money back. So it was also ok.

Hi Novitamaya! :) I have tried that too but it was a different story. My friend and I bought items online and the payment was done through money transfer. The vendor gave us the wrong account information. When we contacted her if she has received the payment she said she did not and only then realized she got the last digit of her account number that she gave us wrong. So we told her it wasn't our fault and that we should still get the products because we sent payments for it. She asked us to contact the money center and then have it transferred to the correct account. The money center of course is hesitant about it and would want the owner to talk to them. We informed that vendor again and she just told us she'll give us our products once her issue is resolved. It's not a good customer service experience. After than my friend and I stopped buying online. hahaha!

I am really into online shopping.Well,I would love to check on the evaluation first.If the goods really have a good reputation,I would take it.Otherwise,I will keep on looking for a better one.That is true we sometimes buy the things that we are not satisfied or in poor quality,I will send it back at once to change or just return the goods.

Love on line shopping. It makes the holiday here so much easier. My family is spread all over. With the online shopping I can have it gifted wrapped and mail right to them usually free shipping if you take your time and look for deals. Saved a lot of time and money this year doing that.
