My entire Sunday is ruined, I had earlier shortlisted 5 research journals for my PhD's Literature Review. Out of which I already downloaded 3 of them, but for some weird reason, I don't have any access to rest 2 papers, which talks about consumer perception. I tried all possible sources, but in vain. No idea, what should be done.

You might try contacting the author(s) of the last two papers directly. A lot of them will be more than happy to send a PDF copy of articles/papers if you send them a polite email saying that you've been unable to access them and would like to reference them for your PhD literature review.

Some days just end up being so frustrating..the best you can do is take a break and come back to it later.

@Rimps85 What happens when you try a different browser or device to download it?

You can approach a friend of yours and try to download using their Internet access.
Or may be go to a shop where one can take printouts from a desktop and try to take their help.
They might charge but your work would be done.
Else, if you have two different Internet connections (Broadband and a mobile), try switching.
It might work.

It could be due to an outdated link or some network restriction then!
