PROS
- you can get something people are WAY more unlikely to have
- sorta like above but you can find thing you couldnt fine in your town or more color options
-most of the time you dont have to pay sales tax so thats saves some money
CON
- you dont get it right away it takes AT least a couple days to get something and sometimes over a week
-you cant try it on before buying
-like above kinda but a lot of stores make you pay for shipping to return it so your out even more money(zappos has free shipping and free returs LOVE THEM)
-again like above but a lot of times you do pay at least a small shipping charge on most things..and places like abercrombie have high shipping rates so it cost more
Answer by lo
Cons
Fake websites
Bad return policies
Online retailers that do not disclose that they sell fakes of factory variants.
Identity theft
Lost orders
Shipping in general (I hate shipping charges)
Lack of photos or video of the garment in question.
Coupon codes that exclude everything (Macy’s)
Poor description of products
No side by side comparisons of products.
Poor customer service
Wrong product in the box
It may be tan on your screen but it will arrive and the color is dark camel.
Pros
The world is your mall you do no have to settle for whats available at your local retailer.
Internet only pieces=rare
There is always a deal somewhere if you are a smart shopper you will normally receive 65% or better off your purchase.
