Yes, many online shopping are well known in my country. We can buy goods from home only by using the marketplace application on our cellphone. There are many marketplace applications that you can use, but most of them use the Shopee, Lazada and Tokopedia applications. I am one of them, who often makes buying and selling transactions online there. How about you?

Wow, nice to hear that. What marketplace apps or sites do you usually use and are famous there? I feel very fortunate to be able to shop online, because I can shop without leaving the house, saving time and money for transportation.

Shopee, Lazada, and even TikTok are available here in the Philippines. TikTok has various shops that sell bags, shirts, shoes, phone holders, bed sheets, skincare products, and other items. Shopee is my personal fave. There, I am a platinum member.

In a matter of fact the online shopping is not well known in my country yet and that is not popularly being used here. Most people embrace on the traditional way of making purchases.

Tiktok shop is also here, but I don't/haven't used it yet. The platinum shopee member means you often shop using the shopee, right? I used to be a platinum member, but now I'm a Gold member. :D

People prefer to buy online this time to save time and effort. It is also good to buy online, however, it will be a disaster if the products delivered are fake.

If the product that was delivered is fake, it can be returned by submitting a complaint to the marketplace, don't forget to include the package unboxing video. And before buying, make sure the shop is trustworthy by looking at the store's ratings and reviews.

I never had done it. I received almost 4 fake sites already, I just threw them into the trash. Last week, there was one fake item delivered, but I returned it.

The pandemic of coronavirus took almost every business online that is the reason why most people who are not familiar with online shopping before have started making use of it now.

What marketplace site do you use? What I know is that people from Asia mostly use the shopee marketplace, but we still have to be careful because there are always untrusted sellers. It's better to check store ratings and reviews before deciding to buy.

Online shopping is also getting popular here. But there are many big shopping malls here. People enjoy both online and offline shopping. I mainly shop offline because the shopping mall with supermarket, personal care stores, cake shops is just a few minutes walk from my place.

Wow, glad to hear that, I also do more offline shopping. I shop online specifically for items that are difficult for me to get at offline stores. May I know what marketplace applications are widely used in your country?

Since I mostly do offline shopping, I am not aware of marketplace applications which are widely used here. However, most supermarkets and personal care stores have online shops. There's also a big online shop called HKTV Mall which is very popular here.

Few years back online shopping was not as common as it is doing by people nowadays. Draz.com played very important role to make it common here, they started selling common used items in very low price and when people started purchasing it they increased prices but over certain limit.
