Some tips for online shopping

Salam.

Nowadays world is so easy that for any changes or latest news, everything can be found right under your finger tips. That is what I have been doing (and I know most of you have too), enjoying the world right under our nose without having the need to go anywhere. Lately, I have found my addiction in online shopping. It's easy, fast, no time wasted to go to shopping mall and meeting people. You can enjoy shopping in the comfort of your own home.

But don't be fool by how easy things are for you. Some websites are fraud. So to prevent that, there are some steps that need to take into measurement.

1) Check whether the website is authentic or not. Read the testimony of the product, the customer and the buyer's comment. All web that really sells has testimony from their customer. Otherwise, my advice, do not buy anything, or at least let someone else do that first. You don't want to pay hundreds and cry for the money that you will never get back. So be very careful on that.

2) If you are planning to buy clothes or apparel, make sure you know your size and check web's the apparel's size. Usually for apparel, they will provide information on the length, measurement etc, not just the size. Don't buy them just because they are pretty. Your eyes can deceive you if you don't bother to check. Remember, virtual shop is different from real shop. You cannot try and return back if it doesn't fit. So make sure you check your size.

3) Shoes are my guilty pleasure and the offers online are much better than the one in shop. You can get original Nike or Jimmy Choo with much cheaper price. So you have to know your size. Most online shop that sells shoes provides you with Vincci's size. So don't worry if you don't know your size (which is impossible cause how do you buy shoes in shops, not even online if you don't know your size right?) just visit vincci and try the shoes there, pretend you want to buy one and memorize your size. That way, you have no worry about buying shoes online.

4) Buying international make up product online is never a problem! But make sure you know that the product genuine. Read testimonial of the product. A good online beauty parlor will try the product first and let you know what they think about it, giving a review of the product. Also read user's testimonial of the product.

5) Paying method. This is the most important thing. For international website, they accept credit card or paypal. But for someone who is "overly rich" with no credit card and no paypal, I will check the payment method above all else. Local online shops accept money transfer method or bank in. so what you have to check is what bank they are using for you to bank in the money. Make sure the branch of the bank is nearby your house. After you bank in, make sure you KEEP THE RECEIPT.

6) You can even buy foods online! Don't trust me? I bought a very delicious cupcake for my friend's birthday at a very reasonable price and they even have delivers too! But you have to make sure a few things before buying it. What are the rates for throw in delivery? How much do they charge for the delivery? Comparing shops also a good ideas because some have a good design and delivers anywhere but some have a limited delivery place. (extra tip: for Johorian, just google cupcakes in Johor Bahru)

7) You MUST HAVE THE PHONE NUMBER OF THE WEBSITE'S OWNER and all of the online shops provides with that. Try to message them once to see whether the number is still in use or not.

8) Make sure the date is recent for each items posted to make sure the shops are still working.
