Are You Into Online Shopping?  

Gosh! The stuff that we can find online. I have the habit of searching products online- I have to do some research for my Ciao review anyway-and it's window shopping minus the legwork. I can't purchase anything online since I don't have a credit card or a Paypal account. Shame, but I enjoy surfing branded products and say "oohh" or "aahh" everytime something appeals to me. Well, it's all that I can afford to do, stare. What I've noticed is that the products online are cheaper than those that are in actual stores. I don't know if it's the case in the US. You see, I am in the Philippines and imported brands are way too expensive here.

Like the Oakley Half-Jacket that my brother-in-law purchased last year. When I looked it up it's available for $104-$115 but he bought it for P8,000+ or an equivalent of $160. Maybe, it depends on the current rate of USD. Considering the shipping fee that international clients have to pay, guess it's the same? What do you think? I've really noticed a big difference. I dunno.

I was wondering if it's safe to do online shopping? Are those online shops legit? How do we know if the shop is a scam or not? Share your online shopping experience with me.
