So, today, I would like to talk about a problem I had while shopping online that happened to me 1 year ago. I won't say that I like to buy online, but there are a lot of drawbacks. One of these is that you are not able to try on your clothes, and you cannot feel the quality of the clothes. So, 1 year ago, during Black Friday, one of the best days to buy clothes or whatever you need because there are a lot of discounts, I opened my phone and decided to buy something in the cardiovascular use app that I saw. I bought one pair of jeans and one t-shirt. I had to wait 3 days, and when I received my clothes, I was so happy because they were amazing. But the problem was that in the United States, they have a size standard, and I'm living in Italy, where we have a different size. The jeans were too big. The issue was that I was not able to return the items through delivery, but I had to go to a physical mall. I was frustrated, so I went to the mall and the store inside. I had to return the jeans, and they recharged my credit card. I had to wait 4 days. It was inconvenient, but it highlighted the drawback of buying something online that you cannot try on.
