What Can You Say About Online Shopping?

[changelessme]

^... amen to that sis

[liu_yifei]

i like online shopping pag u.s website pero depende pa rin sa site. i haven't tried buying sa multiply, i hate it pag pre-order kasi kahit gusto mo na items hindi mo pa pwede makuha. and wala rin assurance an makukuha mo nga siya when you pay kasi hindi pa on hand yung items.

i just hope that those sellers will stock their items first before they ask money from buyers. not the other way around.

[baliwsayo]

^I agree with you. Gusto mag-business ng walang puhunan. Bad experience ko sa ganyan, tagal na ko nagbayad tapos nawala daw shipment or out of stock. Nire-refund naman money ko pero ang dating kasi parang nagpautang ako ng pera sa hindi ko naman kilala ng walang interest. 

Dapat siguro i-boycott ang mga pre-orders na yan para di na sila mag-flourish. 

But I do love shopping online.. pero international din lang. I also hate going to the bank pa to pay.. masyado hassle. Tapos wala kang protection, seller lang may protection eh. Unlike pag international and you use paypal, you can file a complaint pag palpak ang transaction and they refund your money in full.

shopping online is very convenient for me. just have to be careful in buying.

Dumating na kanina ang pre-order ko from Multiply. It was my first time ordering on a pre-order kaya kabado talaga ako then bagong seller pa lang ang seller ko. Before ako nag buy super research muna me about sa seller ko and all that. Super happy ako sa purchase ko. Hehe...

[cher.liman]

Mahirap lang kasi its kinda complicated since they want US address lagi hmpf

[marieanna]

Hi mga sis, ako din first time ko mag online shopping kaya medyo kabado ako. I don't know kung dadating ba sa akin yung order ko though maliit palang naman worth nung binili ko for a test palang.

advice to those who wanna try online shopping:

konti lang muna shop nyo, try lang at least you can gain confidence about online shopping

and DAPAT mag research kayo about dun sa seller, PLUS point pag my address or contact details para you know where to contact sellers if ever there are questions etcetera.

Here sa Pinas, I usually shop online sa Multiply.  I recently tried ebay.ph and they do have nice things there.  Unfortunately, I think I've just been scammed.  Hay, so sad!

[Lee+Ench]

I haven't tried it yet. im scared na ma scam.

[stylishmomy]

was scammed on Ebay.ph once.. and so far di pa ako na scam sa Multiply but havent been buying things from there lately coz most items naman are found in divisoria and other tiangges.

Sometimes I try Ebay US but usually lugi sa shipping cost.

[sushisundance]

dati may binili akong book from US, nalugi pa yung seller sa shipping, nakita ko kasi yung binayaran nya, sobrang lugi sya. usually kapag galing HK, $1 or free shipping.

tip: always remind the seller to tag the package as a gift para di malaki yung tax, 35 lang sisingilin nila.

I love online shopping. Althoug medyo risky nga, buti naman ok yung mga nabibilhan ko. I usually buy bags online thru multiply.

[marief2rnurse]

I like online shopping, kasi syempre convenient and madami kang makikitang nice products online especially sa multiply.

May nabasa kong blog na againts sa mga "vendors" sa multiply. Kasi, aside from they are not paying taxes, minsan nag aadd sila ng kung sino sino to broaden their market, parang nagsspam din daw.

sabi kasi ng dti, ang online selling is like one on one selling, parang friend mo na nagalok sayo ng something kaya di required mag pay ng taxes.  dapat lang naman, if you're an online seller and a busy one you will realize talaga why pay taxes?  ang hours napakahaba kasi people will text you anytime of the day, night, wee hours of the morning, tapos madami pa dyan text, one text per question, madami din di bumibili, madami din oorder di naman nagbabayad.  why pay taxes di naman natin napapakinabangan?

[lyvtela]

medyo addicting lalo na pag kilala mo na yung seller, pag may new items, nakakatempt lagi bumili

[jhez]

nakaka-addict lalo na pag sale...

I once bought souvenirs from a Multiply site selling party giveaways pero after I deposited the payment (in full pa), hindi na ko satisfied sa communication nung seller.  The design she sent me wasn't even good.  Halatang minadali.  Tapos nawala na lang sha and after a month emailed me saying na me family emergency.  So sabi ko na lang i-refund payment since tapos na ang event and ako pa nag-suggest na instead na Php12++ yung refund nya e sa kanya na yung 200. 

After a month daw nya ibabalik so I waited pero after a month, di pa rin binalik.  I posted a message on her guestbook kasi hindi sha nagrereply sa text at email.  Ibinalik din naman after a long and tiring process.  And guess what, she hid her guestbook after that.

Yun pa lang naman bad experience ko about online shopping.  To think akala ko okay kasi dami nya na feedback before I ordered.

[coolcupcake]

Online shopping is one of the best features that the Internet world had given us, especially for us girls who always love shopping!

[coolcupcake]

I've just read your story, happydumpling.
Ako rin, I rely on positive feedbacks, pag ok, I give it a go.
Pero nadala na rin ako before dyan kaya pag may transaction ako, meet-ups na lang. Para makita ko rin kung ok ba yung sinesell niya at para makita rin nung buyer ko (if I'm the seller) na ok din ang product na marereceive niya.
