The growth of onlline shopping will one day lead to all shops in towns and cities closing. Do you agree or disagree?
Consumers tend to shop on the Internet nowadays which affects retail outlets. A major concern is that various stores in our communities will have to shut down as fewer customers may visit their businesses.
However

Buyers typically want to ensure that what they are buying is actually what they are receiving. Linking Words
This
is especially true when people purchase expensive items or want to obtain something that they are not familiar with. Linking Words
For example
, when a couple is planning to buy a couch, they want to get a general feel for the size, material, quality, colour and most importantly experience how comfortable the couch is before placing an order. Linking Words
As a result
