Some people think that online shopping has a lot of advantages． The most important one is its convenience． People don’t have to waste their time and energy to go from one shop to another to buy commodities they like． This is especially useful to the busy people， the aged and the disable people who can’t go to shops in person． Besides， on the Internet there is enough information of all kinds of commodities， and people are able to buy things from a distant place．
But other people object to online shopping． They think that the real goods may be different from what the consumers have seen on the Net， thus the quality of commodities bought online may not be ensured． What’s worse， once cheated online， one may find it difficult to make a complaint．
