With the development of technology, online shopping has become popular in people’s daily life. As many of us might have witnessed, more people are buying products through the Internet. And to facilitate online purchase, stores provide pictures of their products together with other illustrations on the

websites. Besides, online products range from small items such as clothes and books to large ones like computers.

Undoubtedly, online shopping has brought us many conveniences. Yet its potential dangers to the consumer could not be ignored. One possible risk is that consumers might not get the exact product they want because the information provided might not be enough or reliable. For a simple example, a consumer who wants to buy a pair of shoes might end up getting a pair with desired style but unfit sizes. After all, people have to try themselves when buying clothes or shoes. Moreover, if consumers do not pay attention to the credibility of online stores, they might get cheated.

Therefore, consumers should firstly be aware of the credibility of an online store. Secondly, people should not jump on the bandwagon because not all online shopping brings about convenience. Instead, they have to make their own judgment as to the kind of products that could be bought online. Thus, they could avoid possible trouble caused by inadequate or inaccurate information provided by an online store.

To begin with, I don’t need to walk long distances to the nearest supermarket and bring the heavy goods home such as a sack of rice and flour. I can stay at home and find the goods online easily, then they will be delivered to my front door. What is more, I needn’t worry about the crowd and the opening hours. Second, I can get abundant information about products from network shop any time and any places. I can learn more about the design, color and size of the products. Particularly, other users’ feedback is very helpful for me. I can use these information to find the perfect item at the best price in different online shop.
