Online shopping is a new trend nowadays. Almost
everyone has experienced buying online. There are three female interviewees,
Ting-Ni Chen, Lulu Lin and Shih-Ting Chang who are NCU’s students and NTNU’s
student.
They all show the main items which they buy online are clothes, bags
and shoes. “I’m almost shopping online once a month at least,” says Ms. Lin,
who is NCU’s student, “Because online shopping is convenient and the NCU is so remote
so that I don’t have motorcycle can stroll around the streets and shopping.”
Convenient
is one of advantages for buying on the internet. In addition, there is another advantage
that online products are full of extraordinary
things.
“I have bought shoe-pads on the internet” says Ms. Chang, who is
NTNU’s student,“ Shoe-pads are not easy to buy in common shopping mall.”
The
other two male interviewees, Mr. Chen and Mr. Lyu who both are NCU’s students,
say that they have bought dumbbell, facial mask, ice packing and underpants on
the internet but seldom buy them in physical shops. “Because it’s too shy for
me to buy in common stores, “says Mr. Lyu, “And also shopping online will be cheaper
than buying in the physical stores.”
Though online shopping has many risks that most of people have deceived on
the internet, such negative influences of online shopping seem not affect the
customers’ interests.
“I think if we know more information about buyers or the
platforms on the internet,” says Ms. Chang, “Then we will not be cheated and
can lower the risk for online shopping.”
