Read and Write Reviews
-I appreciate those who take a minute to write reviews and yes, people use them to help decide if they should make a purchase or not. Reviews can save you a lot of headaches. I was shopping online yesterday on one of them bargain websites and I liked that they had an option to rate the store and the products they offered. Yes, most of the stores on the site were from China, but it had items I wanted for stocking stuffers. Was filled with novelty items at very good prices.
After reading reviews, I deleted half of what I had originally put in my cart. It was obvious to me that some of the items were very poorly made and of poor quality or took forever to get their products. Personally, I do not like waiting two months to get something I have ordered. There were quite a few good reviews for some of the products, so I did spend a few bucks on the site. I will just have to see for myself if the reviews were accurate or not.
Take The Time To Review or Rate Products
I rarely shop online, because I do not like to take any risk when I shop.....I just can't afford risk. I do leave feedback or write a review when I do shop, if there is an option to do so. I believe we owe to one another to rant or rave about products offered on the web. The system only works if it's actually used. Think about it. If everyone used the tools given to consumers, there would be a lot less crap on the market and it would remove a great deal of risk, buying sight unseen.
Be reasonable when you write your review, try to keep personal feelings or slanderous comments out of it. This kind of review is often disregarded by buyers anyway, especially if good reviews far out weigh the poor ones. Face it, some people can find something wrong with nearly everything. There is just no way to please them and unfortunately, these are the people who utilize rating products the most. Take a few minutes to praise a product or warn other people not to buy. No matter where you live, you are part of a community of online shoppers and we should look out for one another.
I did get most of what I had ordered, I am still giving them time, but draw the line at 2 months for delivery. I was happy with my products, very happy with the prices. I kept my expectations reasonable and some exceeded that. I've made a draft review of the site, to publish, once that part of Notions and Needs is active. I have enough on my plate right now. The Site I used was called "Wish". You do have to sign up in order to view their products.
