"WHY BUY ONLINE?
*
It is little wonder, that new buyers quickly
learn to love internet shopping.
At the moment, the best deals on the web are in clothes, books, CDs,
videos, flights and holidays.
Buying on-line does have a number of potential advantages:
Price: Items are usually cheaper on the web because warehouse and
staff costs are lower, and because online shops want to attract and keep
customers.
Convenience: Shopping can be much easier on the web. It can be done
at home, at a convenient time and be very quick.
Wide Choice: Internet shopping allows you access to a wide range of
shops all around the world, some of which do not exist on the High
Street. Online shops also usually carry a much larger stock.
Quick Delivery: Most internet sites are able to deliver within a few
days.
There are also some disadvantages buying online:
Delivery: Many sites still use traditional carriers and do not
deliver at night or at weekends. Often you end up having to go and
collect from a depot.
Costs and returns: Adding up transport and, if buying from outside
the European Community, tax and duty, can often mean an item is not as
cheap as it seems. Returning a purchase often means having to parcel it
up and take it down to the post office.
Cost of using the net: Although online access is getting cheaper,
many internet providers still charge per minute. Browsing around a wide
range of shops can take as long as a traditional shopping visit, so
beware.
Buying more: Because everything is at the click of a mouse, it is
very easy to buy and spend more then you first intended to.
