(Posted by: Dino noob on 2010-07-03 19:41:28)

I seem to have no problems, but the only shops i do shop online at is Hollister, and Gilly hicks, is there something i should know about shoping online.... oh and the only thing i hate about shopping online is the shipping cost

The only thing I hate is the shipping and handling fee, but a lot a stores have deals where if you spend a certain amount, you get free shipping. I love online shopping. I never find anything I like in any of the stores around here. Online shopping is my only option.

Cuz you can't try stuff on! and shipping and handling costs money and people are cheap! = p

For obvious reasons such as (like you mentioned) the added shipping expenses and you cannot try on the clothes. Also you might have to pay more to return unless the store will accept it. And I know patience is a virtue but sometimes people want their clothes NOW.

I love shopping online i just don't like shipping cost and the wait but i think its safe you should always look at reviews to make sure an unknown site is not a scamming one

I hate not trying the stuff on :( Sometimes it looks different on you, or the size is strange. I prefer walking around the mall :D

1) Shipping/ Handling 2) Some sites are scams 3) Identity theft could occur if one isn't cautious 4) Can't feel the material / try item on 5) The return/ exchange is a hassle 6) The wait. Usually about 2 weeks.

I don't *hate* it but I don't like it cause as everybody said, you CAN'T TRY STUFF ON.

It may not possibly be returned if it doesn't fit, thus losing money out of laziness.

Shipping and you can't try it on. That's the only reason I don't like it.

-shipping -can't try it on, so it might not look so good -you need to use credit card information unless you have paypal -you can't get the clothes immediately I don't mind shopping online, but when buy something from a site, I usually just get one thing so I can know the approximate size I need.

I love shopping online because I'm a shopaholic and sometimes when I go to the store, I don't really think about what I'm buying lol. Online, I can go to all of my favorite sites and pick out my favorite things. Then I clip them to Polyvore where I put them into as many different outfits as I can. Then I can REALLY see what I'll wear and how versatile it is. There is some sort of thrill I get from shopping online. I feel as if I have succeeded lol. Also, there is more of a selection online. The sizing does bother me sometimes though and shipping is a pain. Don't get me wrong, I love the mall too lol. I love going to different stores I wouldn't usually think of going to. Sometimes I see something online that I just have to have and I just can't wait lol.

I think it's great coz you can buy stuff from shops that don't have a physical store near you. And there are seriously so many shops/ brands etc out there. Not to mention the discount codes and stuff, so most of the time, the shipping is free anyway. I found this site recently pluggedinfashion.com and the stuff there isn't too bad. And anyway, you can return the goods if you really don't like it right?
