Stories from Readers 21

Dear readers,

Looks like Fashion Truth has become a place for buyers to let out their anger, disappointment and dissatisfaction. Oh well, I would agree to have a platform for this, however, I do agree with Xash that things could be a little more neutral per say. I do not wish to side either the buyer nor the seller but I just want to share my experience. When I buy online, I know for sure that I run a risk of getting items that don't fit or items with poor quality. When I decide to take the risk, I will not blame anyone for sure, not even the sellers. That's probably because I know that things may turn out that way and sometimes pictures can't tell you enough. What I usually do is just not to buy from them anymore. Or if I ever come across something that I like from the same place another time, oh well, who knows, I may fall into the temptation again and buy again!! lol.. How stupid can us women get? hehe..

However, let me point out why we all prefer to do online shopping, though knowing the fact that we may get cheated or dissatisfied. Firstly, I think we love to shop!! Since shopping malls are closed at night and you stay at home feeling bored.. haha.. Let's surf the net.. Day and night you are looking at the blogshops and soon you will realised yourself buying from them.. You may or may not get very good experience from your first online shopping, but you soon find out that you are buying the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and you soon lost count of the number of times.. Well well.. I think we buy online because it is cheaper. Although some blogshops are pricing their items slightly higher than others, if you compare them with the shops out there, they are still cheaper(though it may not be true for some blogshops). I've once saw a satin dress in blogshops that are selling from RM44-RM55. Guess what? I saw the exact same dress in Sungei Wang selling for RM70. So, don't you think they are cheaper? Even if they price it at RM55, it is still cheaper than the shop in Sungei Wang. The reason why I point this out is because I think the sellers should not even price their items too low because the seller may spoil the market. I think there should be a balance between the price that online sellers charge and the boutique owner charge. Online sellers should not charge too expensive and neither should it be too cheap.. I kinda get annoyed when sellers sell their things cheap and claim that selling is their interest and they just make a very very small profit out of it. I don't think it's right to be honest.

I think I'm getting quite long winded here.. Anyways, I agree with some of you who mentioned that there should be a willing buyer and a willing seller. So why do you think you would buy from ZARA or MNG when they are so expensive? Don't you realise that their cost are very low too.. So, take things easily and just share it with others your experience but never ever destroy the blogshop owners.. I really pity them..
