Annoyances of Shopping on the Internet
With the rapid development of advanced network techniques, shopping on the Internet are commonly and widely used in everyday life.More and more people choose to do their shopping at home with the help of Internet instead of going out.However, it is boring for me to go shopping online, because shopping online can bring some problems.These problems include: the goods may not be the same as what we have seen on the computer, shopping online takes away the fun of going shopping in the malls and the security concerns.Under these circumstances, shopping on the Internet can be inconvenient.
Firstly, the goods we buy may not be the same as what we have seen on the computer.When shopping online, we find what we want to buy by scanning the pictures of the goods from different shops on the Internet.It is obvious that the sellers always put the best pictures online.Thus we have difficulty in judging the quality of the goods only through pictures.Sometimes, the goods’ quality is not the same as the sellers describe and not fit with the price.What’s more, the consumers can not see goods or try them on personally, so frequently the size of the clothing bought on the Internet is not ours.We often encounter the situation that the size of the clothes sold online is not a standard size.Once the goods have these kinds of problems, it will be quite boring for us to deal with.If we want to
change for another one, we have to tell the details to the seller to ask for changing, and send back the goods.It may waste much time when we receive the goods sent from the seller again.Besides, we sometimes have to pay for the additional postage.Then, shopping on the Internet can also waste time and money, and we may not be satisfied with the goods bought online.
Secondly, going shopping on the internet takes away the fun of going out for shopping.If you choose to do shopping online, what you have to do is to look at the screen of computer and scan lots of pictures of goods in order to find what you want to buy.It often costs you several hours until you make the decision.Looking at the screen for a long time is quite harmful to our eyes.Moreover, it also reduces the chances of our communication with others.I think going out for shopping can help us breathe fresh air and relax ourselves.We can talk with our friends about the news, the life and some interesting things when shopping together.We can enjoy happine with each other, thus it is also a useful way to strengthen the relationship between us.Besides, our friends may give us some valuable suggestions which are helpful in our making decision.Walking in different malls, We can see varieties of well-furnished department stores and many new products, which makes us happy.In my opinion, shopping on the Internet can not bring the fun of going out for shopping to some extent.
Lastly, the security concerns are most important.Identity theft is one serious problem that the shoppers potentially face .When we purchase the products on the Internet, we are going to be required to put in our bank card information and the shipping addre.As a result,the threat exists that the information of a consumer can be acceible to someone who knows how to obtain it.Thus, the safety of a consumer\'s wealth is threaten.Phishing is another danger that the consumers may face.Given the lack of ability to inspect the sellers, the consumers may be fooled into thinking the retailer is trustworthy, when they have actually been manipulated into provide a system which operated by a malicious party with private information.As we all know, privacy of personal information is significant iue to everyone.What makes us unhappy is that some websites call or send meages to the consumers with the purpose of advertising new items, which interferes our everyday life to a certain extent.There is also a problem of the safety of products.To ensure the safety of the goods,the sellers buy the insurance for their goods.Although shipping companies will offer refunds or compensation for the damage, it is up to their discretion if it happens.Once it happens, you will find that you have nowhere to go to complain and the solution of the problem is boring and frequently wastes much time.
Nowadays, more and more people choose to go shopping online instead of going out for shopping.It is difficult to say whether shopping
online is good or not in general as it depends very much on everyone’s view.However, from a personal point of view I find that I don’t like shopping on the Internet, considering that it may bring product problems, takes away the fun of going out for shopping and produce security concerns.In addition, I think it is not convenient at some times for me to go shopping on the Internet.
