Traditional Vs
Online Shopping
![Page 27: ink fruit](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042601/5453eed2b1af9faa0e8b4bb5/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Example

1. Who can buy – how soon do you need it ?
Online- needs a credit card, Pay Pal account ,checking account , or some sort of online financing option. Wait for it to arrive through the mail.
Retail – the easiest place to purchase products if we have the money .All we need is a way to get there , and means to take your item home.
Advantage – retail
![Page 29: ink fruit](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042601/5453eed2b1af9faa0e8b4bb5/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
2. Product selection – availability
Online- every make and model is at our finger tips without having to
drive miles to find it. We can read product reviews , user opinions ,and
manufacturer specs with minimal exertion. Drawback – cannot test the product beforehand. Retail – limited to only products at local level .Can test the product before buying it, depending on store size ,
selection may be limited , but availability is almost always certain . Advantage - online .
![Page 30: ink fruit](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042601/5453eed2b1af9faa0e8b4bb5/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
3. Base prize
Online – generally , sites like Inkfruit features lower prices because they don’t
have the overhead of renting a pad in a strip mall , high electric bills and staff of sales people. There are even websites that offer “percent off” discounts if we enter a code after meeting a minimum purchase requirement of, which could even save more money .
Retail –in order to compete with retail purchasing , retail outlets are slashing prices all around. Paired with a coupon or special ‘ in store ‘ discount , prices might get as low as some online sellers . They even resell returned items for lower prices. advantage- online.
![Page 31: ink fruit](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042601/5453eed2b1af9faa0e8b4bb5/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
4. Taxes and shipping/ delivery
Online – depending on where we live and what stores we buy through , we might not have to pay a sales tax . Some stores
don’t or provide free coupons for shipping while some do charge , which might drive the final cost of the product up.
Retail – we will pay our local sales taxes at a retail outlet , and there won’t be any shipping charges.
Advantage – tie
![Page 32: ink fruit](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042601/5453eed2b1af9faa0e8b4bb5/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
5 . Customer service/ warranty – returns , exchanges , repairs.
Online User opinion must be read before buying . At times customer’s are charged restocking fees , have to pay for shipping if sending the item to be fixed through warranty or have to buy with a ‘no return’ clause in the sale. Customer service is sometimes hard to contact , and there is usually no store front to voice a grievance in person .
Retail – With a receipt , modern retail outlets are easy to deal with when returning ,
exchanging, and using the warranty .
Advantage – retail.
![Page 33: ink fruit](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042601/5453eed2b1af9faa0e8b4bb5/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
6. Security
Online – most online retailers use some sort of 128- bit encryption ,and are as secure as banking sites. Sure there’s a risk ,but no more than buying in a store . Reader user opinions , check their security liscense, and you will be fine .
Retail – what’s written for online security goes for retail security .
Advantage – tie .
![Page 34: ink fruit](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042601/5453eed2b1af9faa0e8b4bb5/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Conclusion about the two ways of shopping.
• Buy online if you are looking for the best possible deal.
• Even with shipping charges , most online prices are lower .
• While retail can’t compete across the board with prices , it has the advantage in customer service.
• If meeting the sales person , feeling a sense of
community , and security knowing you can walk into the store at anytime are important – buy at a retail outlet.
