Do you buy stuffs online?

I think maybe its because when you do transactions online there is really a big risk involved and it takes a lot of trust to do one successfully. I know you cant do a 100% secure transaction online whether you are buying or selling because you dont get to know the person you are doing your transaction with. I think it just takes trust and a lot of luck making one successful transaction online. I know that there are also honest people who are doing business online and there are also some who are there to cheat people. I heard experiences of some people who had successful transactions online the frist time they tried it and i also heard from some who where scammed even three times in a row from their first time trying one.

Its nice if the clothing you order online would fit you without you having to try it on before your pruchase. But i think that would not always be the case because some people who even try on the clothes they have bought complain about the fit even if they have tried it on before buying. I think it is also possible that the clothes shrink after being washed in the laundry. Its actually hard to tell which size you fit especially if you are buying online because some sizes like small, medium and large differe from the brands you are buying. Your size might be large from one brand but it may be just small from the other brand that you would be buying. I think size differences are quite common especially to shoes. A certain size would differ depending on the brand that you are buying.

I heard that paypal is not always safe, there are times that people also got scammed even when paying with paypal. I think paypal is also much safer as compared to other payment methods because you could get your payment back if the seller does not ship you order but the flaw there is that if your seller shipped something even if the item was different from your order, the seller could get away with your payment because paypal only would just guarantee the shippment of the item but not guarantee if the shipped item is really the right item you have ordered.
Im not quite familiar with the use of debit card but i think its like a prepaid card where you could use to pay online and other shopping expenses.

Same here, its hard to choose items online and you would just be wasting your money if you would be buying something online and finding out later that you could not use it. Actually it really takes a long time for your item to arrive if you would be buying something from outside the coutry and at the same time the shipping would also be expensive because most online stores would not shoulrder the shipping expenses for your item. I think shipping for the US to the Philippines would cost around $20 or Php1,000 which is really expensive if you would just be shipping one item. I think its really much better if you know someone from ourside the country whom you could trust so that it would be much easier to specify what you really want to buy and there would be much lesser risk of being scammed.

Yeah, I agree with you that it's better if we have someone in the US who can buy the stuff for us. It's much safer. Sigh.. so I guess my money would just have to say in my Paypal account until I could use them.

Happy posting!

What kind of sites do you buy from? What payment terms do you do? I think if the items i would be buying are just within our area i would rather just go there and buy it myself. I would just be buying things online if the item is can not be found here in our place and if it is cheaper in other place including the cost of shipping.
