A Case

Well, today we will have some discussion, that I felt really angry about, welcome to drop a comment right here. I had a friend who was really admired Manchester United football group for so long , he was about to find the limited edition Manchester jersey all over the available retailer, like Nike, Adidas and so on, but unfortunately he has got no result in the end. I told him maybe he should get a shot in online shopping website, maybe there is an available online shopping retailer would sell that limited edition jersey, since he saw that Jersey introduce in an online articles. He wouldn`t gave up any chances to get the jersey, So he decided to find it at online shopping website, and he found it, he called me and told me how happy and excited he was, he finally made the ordered for a red jersey.

He waited for two weeks, and finally the parcel delivered to his house, he opened the wrap and found out that is not the jersey that he wanted and ordered, the online retailer gave him an Arsenal Jersey rather than a Manchester Jersey, and that jersey is selling at all the available store in the shopping mall, and is selling cheaper than the online retailer, he was so angry, and called to the website service line, but they did not giving an answer that can satisfied us, and they keep saying, “Sorry Sir, I am not so sure about it” , and we asked for refund, but she said “I’m sorry , that is not refundable”. How blur she was, she can`t even make any explanation at all, irresponsible. My friend gave that jersey to the other friend for his own sake, he is fed up and really disappointed about this matter.

Well, trying to buy stuff in online retailer is actually not really, not that okay and dangerous, but before you made any order for stuff, think wise and make some judgments to the website. Don`t simply click on the stuff and order without reading the terms and conditions and also the paying platform, THINK WISE. Because not every online retailer is safe and secure.
