Hello guys happy weekend to you all I hope you had a great week.
online shopping has been around for more than decades although people still didn't know about online shopping until some years back.

Personally I have no bad experience with shopping online, I'm not a type that shops online I wouldn't have such patient just for what I have paid for to arrive in a month time.
My first experience with shopping online was the one my neighbor told me he would like to get a new phone considering the fact that his old phone is lacking and giving him issues daily.
It was good that he knew what he wanted, while he went to check for the Redmi note13 it wasn't available at the store, so we chatted and I told him we should try ordering online.
It was smooth placing order on AliExpress, his phone was delivered in a month time, without doubt AliExpress is the best platform to buy gadgets, they deliver worldwide.
I was so happy when he spoke with a delivery guy from the company, here in uyo, he went straight to the post office to pick up his new phone.

Online shopping doesn't end with buying gadgets only, it's cover all human need, people buy food items even ready made foods online. But the rate of scams are one of the reasons I refuse to shop online. All of this experience terrible experiences are coming from people in my cycle, two weeks ago a friend of mine was scammed and she lost 20k trying to buy a product she saw online. This scammers have many ways to rip people off their money, so I refuse to be a victim by preventing it from happening.

I had this discussion with a lady this morning where I went to buy breakfast I was talking about how buying things through bank transfer helps me reduce too much expenses and buying things that are not necessary, she insisted that the cash policy was the best, she went ahead to talk about how buying goods through transfer has made her lost her money, she quickly mentioned online shopping, how they delivered things of low quality to what she ordered online. It was funny but that was actually the truth.

Shopping online for me is a 50/50 it is not 100% garunteed, I have been helping people place order for goods but I've never order for myself.

Thanks for stopping by
I'm sylvasticks

I like shopping online oo. It's fun but that wait is usually something I don't like. The dread and the anticipation is always too much. But the thing about shopping online is that it requires a great amount of caution. Not everybody that appears genuine, is.
