I sense a lot of sparks and tension among buyers and e-shop owners. In my personal point of view, shopping online has its pro's and con's.It's definitely cheaper and yes you have to put up with crappy pictures, you don't get to see the items up close and personal. But this is what it's like shopping online.
If you are so unhappy with the services, quality, pricing and what nots why don't you just go to the shopping mall and get your shopping done there?It's easier, you can be 100% satisfied before buying it.Instead you complain when e-shop owners actually take the initiative to bring you the comfort of shopping from your home / work place / etc.
Remember shopping online has its price to pay.So if your going to continue giving nonconstructive criticism then shopping online is not for you after all.
If you read the terms and conditions laid out by most e-shops, they warn you by stating there "BUY AT YOUR OWN RISK".
If you proceed buying it and are unhappy with it, who's to blame?The seller? The buyer?The seller is merely just promoting / selling the item to you.You the buyer on the other hand should claim most of the responsibility because it's you who decide ultimately if you want to purchase or not.
FROM FT :
so sorry but we should have made certain points clear right at the beginning. some of u readers may be clear of these stuff because u all have been reading the site from the very beginning. but for the "newbies", they probably don't know about it.
so here it is:
Price Comparisons.
well it may not be an appropriate 'name' to some. so, shall we change the title? we were thinking of changing it to "alternatives". just that.
and also, some readers may not know why prices differ so much. is it because the sellers just want to make a higher profit? or are there reasons behind it?
here goes : [have been widely discussed in the earlier stages of this blog]
prices may differ because :
1. some sellers wanna earn more, some sellers settle for less profits. some sellers just want to price their items lower than the popular blogs just to attract more customers.
2. sellers do get cheated by the suppliers. different suppliers charge differently.
3. some sellers hire models to model their clothings
4. some sellers do have an 'offline boutique'. offline boutiques are usually more expensive than online boutiques
5. occasionally, some sellers import their items from overseas, but they didn't know that their items can be bought locally at a much lower price.
6. some sellers MAY HAVE included COD charges & postage charges into their stated price.
[do email us at fashion.truth@gmail.com if we miss out any! ]
anyway,
for now...
the SITE IS UNDER 'CONSTRUCTION'. do bear with us for the time being. lol. not major construction, just wanna draft out a proper "header/intro" so new readers dont get the wrong idea.
sellers/buyers/readers, do email us and give us your feedback on what else we should add on this blog / this header-or-intro / anything to clarify. thank u very much
*wont be updating for the next 3 days. meanwhile, we urge readers to write in to us ya!
thanks!
