My Online Shopping experience

in #shopping5 months ago

Over the last 2 months I have been doing most of my shopping online. A couple of years back I was never a fan of online shopping and preferred to buy it by visiting a shop. Since the past 2 years now I have slowly gradually shifted to a lot of online shopping, specially the home utilities. I have been using Amazon majorly for the shopping, because I find it easy to use and also I know their return and exchange policy well. Since the past 2 months while I was setting up my new home, there was so much that I had to shop for the home.

Setting up a home from just 4 walls is a challenging task, you need to think of the smallest of things like Kitchen utilities, linen, personal care products, cleaning items and what not. I kept making a list of all that I had to take for the home. Initially I thought I would prefer to see and buy somethings but then the list started getting so long and with all the work going on, it was almost impossible for me to do this part as well and then I started ordering everything online from Amazon. Where I needed things in quantity and I was not sure how it will be, I ordered single piece first to check and after satisfaction I ordered the bulk.

Most of the items were accurate as shown in the picture, I can say from 100% almost 98% my order was well completed. There were just 3 to 4 things which did not turn out as per my expectation and I returned them back where I received the refund. I could save a lot of time with this. While almost everything I bought online, there are few things that I still do not prefer to shop online, which is anything related to cloth material, which can be clothes, linen, towels because this is where I do not get right judgement. Seeing and feeling the material are 2 different things. Though this time I did buy a couple of bedsheets online and I was not very satisfied with the feel of the material.

Clothing and footwear are the things which I will still not prefer to buy online. Some 3 months back in Oman there is a new online clothing store launched and I ordered some clothes from there as they looked very attractive, the fitting was good but I did not like the material and somehow I was not very satisfied with it. They are not bad but just that I was not very happy with it as it did not suit my taste and on wearing them they did not look as that attractive as they did in the picture.

For the household items I did find it very convenient and it saved a lot of time and effort for me. Also I could see the products in different price range and varieties so that also helped me a lot in the selection process. These days I am buying a lot of my food items also online. Online shopping from well known portals are safe and reliable.

I do have the exact principle when it comes to online shopping. Clothing and footwear is an absolutely no-no. Unless I trust the brand so much, in the sense that people close to me have tested and trusted the brand a number of times. Even then I could still be sceptical about clothing and footwear.

Hope to be learn more about your online shopping experiences.🌺

Clothes and footwear we ladies always want to put it on and see how it looks on us, because it will always look different on different people

Since the pandemic I also shifted online shopping from time to time.

This is when I feel too tired to walk around and just the thought of bringing those stuff was tiring.

Yet, of course there are also some disadvantages

The clothes in the online shop are far from reality, and you feel disappointed when the colors are not the same as when it arrived. Sometimes the color is dull compared to the picture. Well, amazon is a nice online shop in terms of returning goods compared to our online shop offered here in our country ma'am.😌

Clothes is one of the things j also cannot buy online so that they won’t bring something bad to me but I’m glad you were able to order the household items from the comfort of your home
That’s a good one

It's interesting how online shopping has become a go-to for home essentials for most people now. I agree dear, clothes are tough to buy online, you can't exactly feel the fabric.

My 90% shopping is from online 😜

I am at 60 to 70% right now :-)

Online shopping is very convenient as it does not required us to go out and make our orders, yet it can still be a thing we don't turned out to like so much, some products may not be the way we see them, I prefer going to shop, and there I can see items and I will know if it's the item I really want to buy.

I too prefer that but time is the factor, if I have time then I will any day prefer going to a store

Yes, that's the true, we shop online when time is not on our side.

Shopping online from reputable companies is a great, you always tend to get what you want or are fully refunded for mismatched items. My experience is that non-mechanical objects have a less satisfaction rate than mechanical objects ordered through online. Unless as a last resort, I'll always prefer going shopping for food than ordering it online.

True, mechanical objects are safe to be ordered online and one can save time on those routine things
