Shopping is one of the industries that has utilised internet to the fullest.Online shopping has broken the geographical barriers.Today you can order anything from the yet-to-be-released Harry potter book to the iphones by sitting in homes.Even you can view the product before buying.The comments/feedback about a product can also be viewed.

some glitches:
==========
1.The online purchase won't give you the joy of doing it in near-by shops by walking in the streets.

2.With online shopping you can't feel the product,though you can see it.

3.You need to have credit card to buy it online.The fear of phishing is always there.

Product quality cannot be judged in case of generic / non-branded items and in case of inferior quality you cannot do much.
 
hey this has already started in INdia and would be practised widely because of the convenience it offers....
1. sitting at home and ordering just by the click of the mouse
2.as for the feeling of the product or purchasing it before seeing the product, i think we need to make that much of sacrifise if we are soo lazy to buy it online...no one would dare to sell a defective product because CUSTOMER IS THE KING in this market..
3.online purchasing has become safe due to many security devices for instance they hv authorities now who take care that your credit card details are safe and not misused. Safety issue has been taken care of...
 
Well, I think online shopping can be more useful and faster for the people who really not having sufficient time to go in to the market and purchase the products.

But Online shopping needs to have more secure and people can easily purchase their products.

In future people can buy their products from their mobile through latest technology.

that depends on the things you are planning to buy and the value attached with it...and internet is good medium for saving time and having all options reviewd at one time aone stop but final purchase takes palce at shop only ....
 
Nowadays there are so many online shopping sites that we arent able to tell a good product from a bad one. However, integrity apart, there seems to be a lot of convenience involved.
 
No i dnt thnk online shoppin can ever replace da experience of real shoppin! n wid the kind of of mindsets of majority of consumers prefer the real shoppin more than online shoppin 4 a majority of products!
 
in india, the online shopping is finding relly tough for itself to enter or we can say penetrate into the established market. the basic thing because of which people are afraid to go for it is their privacy, they are afraid that they might loose their information details, which they give while shopping.
also there is an issue regarding the trust of the sites, peoples are generally not getting the product which they have requested through online shopping.
 
online shoppin is commin up n like we all dont have that much of time i feel that it is better but that does not mean that it can reaplace the real shoppin
c both stand in their own places ... both have their owm merits n demerits
i still feel real shoppin is anyday better as we can c wat we r buyin we know n then there is no point of gettin cheated or anything
 
Online shopping can surely help all of us to save time but still it cannot replace the real one,each and every thing has it own advantages and disadvantages so is for real and online so here everyone has its own view
 
breaking the mindset recalls for greater thrust frm the companies.. that is not happening in India.. can safely say that the trend will take a long time to redeem itself !
 
i agree with you all that online shopping is not a easy job to do but dont u think that the new era of network economy its the most emerging factor....
so according to me if anyone goes into this he may have a heavy return....
and in the customer point of view how many customers are still there who dont have that much of time to go for shopping....
therefore this virtual market would surely take place of this brick and motar market.......
