E-commerce fuels domestic consumption (2)

Firstly, rapid increase of client software downloads. "Move the Taobao store into the phone in one minute", "place order online anytime anywhere", all these have made it convenient for enthusiast young online shoppers. Taobao, Yihaodian, and 360buy.com all have their own client softwares. Once installed, these apps can lead you to the online stores by a single click. Shopping can be done anytime and the purchase can be delivered to the buyer's address. Who could refuse such convenience?


The reporter recently went shopping in a mall with a master online shopper. After walking in the mall for quite a while, she acquired almost nothing. The reason was that she had a price-comparing app installed in her mobile phone, and she had the habit of scanning everything before she bought it. Under such scanning, the price of everything is transparent, and the overpriced products are certainly left alone. Nowadays, most commodities in the mall cannot stand such scanning. Although not many customers are master shoppers like her, she said that most of her friends were buying bargained products from the internet now and that anything was available online as long as you knew what you were buying. I then asked her what if she bought a fake product, she said if she bought a fake product, she would never shop on the same place again and would told everyone about it so that there would be no market for fake products. Online shopping has generated corresponding apps and such apps have also made online shopping more convenient and cheaper.
