When it comes to return and exchanges, this online and in-store shopping might look similar but there's always a different between them, let find out starting with in-store shopping;
I bought a Bluetooth in the nearly store and within the week i notice that one side the ear pod is not working, i went to the place with the complain and they give me another one. That's to say, returning items in-store is straightforward, in the aspect that you can visit the space, get immediate assistance buy or return what doesn't satisfy your need.
Online shopping do offer return and exchanges but sometimes it might be frustrating. If you check reviews of some popular online shopping store, you'll realize that even if they offer free returns and guarantee, you'll still find it difficult to get them. Some will be complaining of unable to get responses from the customer care. This popular brand JUMIA offer return on their products within a period of time. But you'll still need to visit their physical store.(From my experience)

Which shopping method do you prefer and why? |
|---|
My Preference:
Depending on the product I want to shop, for example, when I wanted to buy my power bank, I checked in-store but the prices were on high side. Fortunately for me, there was a promotion by Oraimo and it's was affordable so I placed an other immediately. Even though that particular product were cheap online, people who sales it in-store were still selling at the high price.
I ordered it and it was delivered to me with payment on delivery. I checked my product and I paid them. Anytime I wants to shop I will always compare the 2 shopping method and find out the price comparison. But in most cases I prefer online shopping because there's always a promo compared to in-store shopping which I hardly see it.
In conclusion, shopping in-store is risk free and straightforward while online shopping is easy and conveniently. Some people choose online over in-store shopping, it's their choice and respect that and to me, my shopping method depends on the products I want to buy. 🌹🌹Thank you all.🌹🌹
