shops has gradually been abandoned because people now tend to shop online. Even though it may have a positive effect in some circumstances, I believe that it has more drawbacks than benefits.

This

essay will discuss why

trend happens and the drawbacks that follow

this

trend.

Firstly

Linking Words

, online shopping becomes more popular because some

buyers

stores. The

buyers

might forget that when they buy goods online, they might be wrong in choosing the quality of the

products

Use synonyms

. It happens because they cannot touch and feel the product physically and only believe the quality base on the description provided by the seller.

For instance

, if both the seller and the

buyers

have different measurements for clothing sizes because sometimes they provide unclear standards, and if the product is unfit for the buyer it will make the

buyers

feel disappointed. Another downside of online shopping is that the poor traders who sell in street markets do not get to sell more of their goods because the majority of them do not have a smartphone to promote their

products

online.

For example

, recent evidence indicates that people who trade their

products

in the online market successfully gain more income than those who sell their

in the e-market.

As a result

, some

trades who want to get more income try to combine two ways which are selling their product

and online. In conclusion,

although

online shopping made has made life easier, I think it is still better to shop physically so we can see, feel, and know what we want to buy without feeling disappointed and blaming the seller.

Also

as well as

online traders and keep a good trading environment.
