The growth of online shopping will one day lead to all shops in towns and cities closing. Do you agree or disagree?

There is currently a contentious argument over whether shops will be closed

as a result

of the expansion of purchasing on the

internet

or not. I completely disagree with

this

opinion due to a vast range of reasons and some of them will be addressed in

this

essay. The main reason why I believe some stores are not likely to be replaced by online shopping is that buying some products on the

internet

is not trustworthy for the majority of people.

In other words

, these kinds of stuff should be touched in order to be sure about their qualities,

consequently

, these kinds of businesses are not replaceable.

For example

, a recent study in Iran indicates that 80 per cent of the crowd suppose that purchasing these goods via the

internet

is a waste of money. Another reason why I dispute

this

notion is based on the fact that most of the population do not have constant access to the

internet

.

Furthermore

, there are some individuals who are unable to use the

internet

. To be more precise, they do not have any knowledge about cyberspace,

as a result

, not only they will not have abilities to do online shopping but

also

they will not rely on that because they know nothing about it.

For instance

, a recent survey which has been taken in Iran shows that more than 40 per cent of the individuals are absolutely unfamiliar with

this

approach. In conclusion,

although

it is a common belief that stores and shops in cities and towns will be closed because of the spreading of online markets, I strongly disagree with

this

idea due to lack of knowledge about the

internet

among the population and lack of possibility to sell some products in

this

way.
