What I ordered for versus What I Get..
Shopping online has been one of the method of purchasing items I've longed to try though I still could feel some deposits of fear in my heart regarding it untill I had this experience.
Something happened to me and my friend who wanted to buy a musical instrument online, it was a studio microphone and though I don't know much about this gadgets I was persuaded by the picture in their site that the microphone is a great and beautiful one. My friend asked of my opinion regarding the microphone and I hurried up to tell him the microphone looks beautiful and will serve. To cut the long story short, He ordered for the microphone after numerous points I highlited trying to convince him about what I just saw in the internet and haven't set my eyes on it.
The faithful day the gadget arrived and was to be collected, I thought my friend will want me to go and get it because he had a visitor and it's that type of visitor I thought won't let him go out but he excused himself and quickly rush to go and get it himself.

When my friend came back, he was putting up a different face from the one he went out of the house with. I knew something was wrong, I asked him what happened why is he like that and he just stretch out His hands and hand over the package to me to see what's inside and truly it wasn't nice. What we ordered for wasn't what we ended up collecting, the microphone wasn't what we thought it was, testing the output became worser and since then I learnt a very important lesson.
I know it has been working for others but since it didn't work for me the first time I involved myself in trying to buy something online, I prefer going physical to obtain whatever I want to obtain unless otherwise.
Maybe there is going to be something I will want that the only option is getting it online or else I prefer going to buy my products physically, it will also save me allot of danger of been scammed because I have heard how allot of people fall prey to the trap of scammers. Making payments online is somehow risky because it has to do with you putting your card details and even your ATM card password to make payments for the goods you want to buy, you could easily fall into the hands of scammers if you aren't extra careful with sites you make purchase of those goods.
One among the reasons why I preferred online shopping is that I love making good choices and I can have the liberty to price what I want to buy very well and maybe buy it at lesser price than that which is online. I will prefer the physical shopping than online because it's saver and less demanding, I won't have to wait for a very long time before my goods or package arrives.
