Online Shopping, Harmless?

Over the years online shopping has been expanding along with the growth of the internet. As our economy heads for a recession, online shopping will become a great majority of what people will rely on to purchase their goods. The purchase of items online has been modified by the websites such as Amazon, EBay, and Craig’s List to guarantee that the items bought will indeed fill the potential desires of the consumer. If this is not accommodated, the sight guarantees to refund the full amount that the item was purchased for.
I have purchased a variety of items over the web, and I have no complaints. This is because the items I purchased were simple items, if they were not what I wanted I could return and get a refund. Thinking about something’s I would feel uncomfortable buying are things such as a car, because cars are thinks that have multiple things that can go wrong. Plus if you buy a car from somebody online it is usually a final sale therefore no refund available. I do not want to buy an expensive car and only get 100 miles out of it before it breaks down. Then I would have to spend a pretty penny on getting it fixed, so I would feel uncomfortable purchasing anything in the thousands amount online.

In the past few years, online shopping has become very popular. Online shopping has changed the way of buying goods. No longer are people restricted to driving to their local shopping mall to experience a unique shopping extravaganza.
