Yeah, because when you buy online they have to deal with the shipping costs as well. So the price go up. But when some items are not available in your location, the easiest way is to find it online.
Though flipkart have much less options as they are not selling clothes, shoes etc,but still there are many accessories which are cheaper than the market prices.
Online shopping save us a lot of time and energy and we get delivery of products right in our homes. Sometimes, they offer some good discounts also and the quality of the product also at par with the products available in the market. Some of the sites like ebay and amazon are quite reliable when we do online shopping...!
Definitely,there are some selected items which could be shopped online and if we search some of the sites,it could be much cheaper than we buy going to market.
As all know online shopping is being common these days so this is the time when frauds can also fast up their activities to make people fool. So be careful.
I think one should avoid online shopping if not compulsory. The most important disadvantage is that you do not know the product condition when it is going to be delivered to you. Secondly, you don't have any other options but to wait for the delivery to be made. I ordered a pen-drive but had a lot of headache, as the product was delayed in courier and after writing 2 to 3 times to these persons I received it after 5-6 days.
