Online Shopping

Online Shopping       Brenda Mar. 7. 2017   I have two sons; one is demonstrative and the other is reserved. The latter seldom expresses what he wants to do or buy. No matter what he does, just staying in his room seems to provide him with peace of mind. Two years ago, he was often seen to watch some video clips related to fold papers on Youtube. Then he asked me to buy a book ‘The works of Satoshi Kamiya’. Satoshi Kamiya, the most advanced master in origami, wrote several books. Origami is an art to transform a flat sheet of square paper into a finished sculpture through just folding it. Since it was rare for him to rush me to do something, with joy, I ran to ‘Gwanghwamun Kyobomoonko’, the largest bookstore in Korea. To my disappointment, the book was not there. The words, “I wish to become a Satoshi Kamiya!”, led me to be impatient to buy the book. Didn’t we talk ‘If you wish really hard, maybe you’ll get what you want’? I finally found the Japanese homepage ‘origami house’ through surfing the Internet and ordered the book. With the book, he began to imitate the works and now his skill seems to reach a significant level. I thank the online shopping.   Through the thankful online shopping, I recently bought a dress. The model wearing the dress in a picture looked so lovely. The belief that it brighten an ordinary woman helped me to press the ‘buy’ button. Seeing the delivered clothes, I could not help hiding my disapointment. The quality and color of the fabric was completely different from what I expected. The choice shopping without seeing in person resulted in costing me a returning fee, two thousand five hundred won. Needless to say, I decided not to buy a clothes through the online shopping any more.   Despite certain drawbacks like not touching and feeling a product in online shopping, there are still many advantages. We can save the shopping time. If a person have no time to travel to a physical store, he can order products online all the time, especially even at night. When it comes to price, the items in online stores are much cheaper. Customers are able to compare prices among many stores before making decisions. Above all things, every computer user can order some products from other parts of the world easily just like my experience. Perhaps online shopping will be immortal due to its irresistible attraction.
