Buying things online can be very tricky, it can either be a hit or a miss.
Sometimes, the items we buy online end up not being what we expected. This has brought about the “what I ordered vs what I got trend where people complain about the things they ordered not being the exact thing they got.
A lot of online vendors have a ‘no refund or exchange’ policy where even when what you ordered is not what was delivered to you, they neither refund your money nor exchange the cloth for a different one.
To avoid these things when shopping, you need to know some things before you order that dress you really want. Here are some handy tricks to ensure success on your next online shopping spree.
Before you order any cloth online, make sure it is your size. In fact, that is the first step. Everyone should know their size. Use a tape rule to measure your bust, waist, and hip size, then compare to the size chart your vendor provides. It is important to know your size to ensure the clothes you order are your perfect fit.
2. Check the vendor’s return policy
Even when you are sure a particular cloth is your size, it might not just fit when you get it and that’s very okay. Before you order cloth from a vendor, know the vendor’s take on refund and exchange so that if you do not like the cloth, there won’t be any issue with refund or exchange.
Reviews are a very important part of any business. Other people who have patronized the vendor will leave reviews on their business page. This will help you know if the vendor can be trusted.
4. Know their delivery charges
Sometimes even the delivery fee is already almost up to the price of the cloth you’re buying. Before you order a cloth, know how much delivery would cost so you will know if you would rather pick up the item by yourself, or stockpile till you are ready for delivery.
