Convenience
Online stores are usually available 24 hours a day, and many con
sumers have Internet access both at work and at home. Other es
tablishments such as internet cafes and schools provide access a
s well.
A visit to a conventional retail store requires travel and must take
place during business hours.

d multimedia files. Some stores even allow customers to commen
t or rate their items.

heaper organize purchases from all over the world without havin
g to depend on local retailers.

Price and Selection
One advantage of shopping online is being able to quickly seek
out deals for items or services with many different vendors (thoug
h some local search engines do exist to help consumers locate pr
oducts for sale in nearby stores).
Search engines, online price comparison services and discovery s
hopping engines can be used to look up sellers of a particular pr
oduct or service.

Fraud and Security Concerns
Given the lack of ability to inspect merchandise before purchase
, consumers are at higher risk of fraud on the part of the merch
ant than in a physical store.
Merchants also risk fraudulent purchases using stolen credit cards
or fraudulent repudiation of the online purchase.

Lack of Full Cost Disclosure
The lack of full disclosure with regards to the total cost of purchas
e is one of the concerns of online shopping.
While it may be easy to compare the base price of an item onlin
e, it may not be easy to see the total cost up front as additional f
ees such as shipping are often not be visible until the final step in
the checkout process
.

Privacy
Privacy of personal information is a significant issue for some cons
umers. Different legal jurisdictions have different laws concerning
consumer privacy, and different levels of enforcement.
Many consumers wish to avoid spam and telemarketing which c
ould result from supplying contact information to an online merc
hant.

Hands on Inspection
Typically, only simple pictures and or descriptions of the item are
all a customer can rely on when shopping on online stores.
If the customer does not have prior exposure to the item's handli
ng qualities, they will not have a full understanding of the item th
ey are buying.
However, Written and Video Reviews are readily available from
consumers who have purchased similar items in the past.
