In recent years, there is a general tendency in another way of shopping—TV shopping, which has become a common occurrence in our daily life. More and more people choose this channel instead of going shopping by themselves or with friends. As every coin has two sides, TV shopping also has advantages and disadvantages.

 

　　To begin with, there is no doubt that TV shopping saves people much trouble in choosing commodities. The commodities shown on TV are limited, so people are not likely to be in dilemma. Secondly, people don’t have to go out to buy things they need. Just turn on the TV set, and select the favorite article. After a call, the thing one wants will arrive soon. Thirdly, the seller on TV offers much more details on the commodity, while in a face to face deal, the shop assistant is sometimes impatient, which affects the mood of shopping. However, the negative aspects are also obvious. On one hand, can the merchandise shown on TV not be faked? Maybe, they just look nice in the effect of vision on TV. On the other hand, some articles worn on the model fit perfectly, but perhaps not suit the people who want to buy them via watching. In addition, without a bargain, it is impossible that consumers can buy the things with reasonable price. Moreover, the entertainment during shopping with which people can have a relaxation is eliminated.

 

　　The most unfortunate is that people increasingly turn passive rather than active. From what has been discussed, we may reach the conclusion that TV shopping not only brings convenience, but also causes confusion. Everyone has his own choice, but for me, I still prefer the traditional pattern of shopping. Which would you prefer?
