Identification of flaws:

  • Lack of physical inspection

Online shopping doesn't allow customers to physically touch or inspect the product before purchasing, which can lead to disappointment if the product doesn't meet expectations.

  • Delayed gratification

Unlike physical stores, where customers can take their goods home immediately, online purchases require waiting for delivery.

  • Potential fraud and security risks

Online shopping is associated with risks such as online fraud, credit card information and identity theft. You should be cautious and make sure that purchases are made on secure websites.
