What e-commerce do you know? Do you have Shopee, Lazada, Tokopedia, Gofood, Shopeefood, and others in your country? Yes, the marketplace site is very well known in Indonesia. We are used to shopping online, choosing something from home, then the goods we buy will be delivered to our home via an expedition delivery service. What do you think about online shopping, is it fun and Interesting? Or do you prefer offline shopping?

Yeah, you're right. I think you know one of the marketplace sites I mentioned, ahaha. And I also don't know the marketplace sites you mentioned. I am one of the online sellers in several of the marketplaces above, it is not uncommon for buyers to be idle and not responsible for their transactions, which is very annoying.

Since Shopee and other e-commerce took more cost to shop, I prefer shopping offline now.

Oh yeah, you're right, now the administrative costs are quite high, and that certainly reduces our profit as sellers.

I enjoy shopping online. I've never had major problems. I still go to the grocery store for food but other than that I prefer to have things delivered to me.

I do some shopping online but I prefer to shop in real shops if I can. I enjoy visiting the shops and looking at the products rather than being chained to my laptop and ordering things online. I also worry about online security and do not like sharing my financial details with people online.

Oh I understand, I prefer to go offline for groceries and vegetables. But for some other items that are rarely sold in nearby stores, we prefer going online. The problem is sometimes the price is very different, not bad for savings. In what e-commerce do you usually shop online?

If I buy electronics, I also sometimes buy online, but via shipping expeditions that are fast in 1 day, like Gojek or Grab. The problem is that the risk is too high if you go through regular shipping expeditions.

I think online shopping is more effective. I usually buy some stuffs online if I dont really have to see the real product. But if I want to see the real products and check the real quality, I prefer to buy it offline in the market or mall.
