Increasingly, the wardrobe of a modern person is replenished with things purchased in online stores. This is convenient; you can “bypass” many more stores, choosing the right model and the best price.
But online shopping sometimes ends in failure. And instead of showing off in new clothes, you have to go through old clothes, trying to put them together in a new way. After all, you can’t appear in public wearing what you sent. Why is this happening? There are several reasons for disappointment.
“Not your own” item was selected
Being an individual is so wonderful! But, flipping through the pages with offers from online stores, many buyers seem to forget about this. An attractive model is liked so much that she becomes... It’s difficult to admit to yourself that such a style, cut or color does not suit your figure or color type.
But trying on makes it obvious that the clothes do not match the person who chose them. Even if the manufacturer offers a varied range of sizes, the photo will most likely show a slim model with a good figure.Please note that not every style retains its attractiveness in large forms.
Before putting the selected item into the basket, imagine it on your friend, who has the same figure as you. An outside perspective will help you evaluate your upcoming purchase more objectively.
Error in choosing a seller
You know for sure that the chosen clothes will suit you. But what they delivered was not the same dress, suit or trousers! Different fabric, cut only vaguely resembles the photo from the store page... Alas, it happens! The seller turned out to be unreliable.
The risk of finding yourself in such a situation arises when you first order from an unfamiliar seller.
Advice. To reduce the likelihood of receiving low-quality clothing, study information about the store and read reviews from other customers.
- Please note the availability of store information. Find his address, contacts, information about the owner and suppliers. If you have to go from page to page, open more and more links, and you still can’t find information about the seller, the purchase is risky.
- Compare price for the same or similar product from other sellers. The cost of the product, of course, may differ, this is normal. But if your purchase is much cheaper, be wary!
- Take the time to read the reviews. They can be ordered on the store’s website, and it’s unlikely that there will be negative feedback there. Also take a look at review sites. There may be real experiences here that will help you decide whether to make a purchase.
Hasty purchase
Is there any doubt about the store? Fine! But even such outlets sometimes fail. An additional guarantee against an unsuccessful acquisition will be the correct organization of the purchase process. Do not hurry!
- Make sure that the seller knows, if not everything, then a lot about his product. Find out who the manufacturer of the clothes or shoes you have chosen is, and get a link to the manufacturer’s website. Check whether your model is actually produced in compliance with technology, in factory conditions, and not in the next basement. Check what material the product is made of.
- Check the expiration date and warranty period of the product.
- Understand the possibilities of returning goods (terms, conditions).
- Specify the terms and conditions of delivery, the possibility of trying on, the possibility and conditions of refusing the ordered goods.
If you have received answers to all your questions, and these answers do not cause you doubts, most likely, the new thing will not disappoint you.
The received product must be checked!
We talked about what to look for when choosing a product. But even a high-quality item does not always suit the buyer. In regular stores, this becomes clear when we try it on, and we simply put the product aside. What about online shopping?
Mandatory verification of the received goods is an important part of online purchasing. Unfortunately, not all buyers complete this check. Especially if they receive an order in the office, and the purchase was made in a trusted online store.
Don't repeat this mistake! Be sure to open the parcel and check the clothes or shoes you receive. In this case, you can make sure that the size and style you receive is exactly what you need.
Buying from an online store is a responsible matter. Follow these simple rules and you will be able to make this purchase useful and enjoyable.
