We should be cautious with our online dealings. There are plenty of manloloko in the cyberworld. Sad but true.

i do online shopping only if i need something which is hard to find, those limited edition stuffs for example. done some pre-owned shopping as well for Old Navy and Gap items which is very usable.

would like to share some bit tips for online shoppers,
- check and read feedbacks from other buyers (track record of seller is very important)
- communicate with seller thru mail, sms, or if they would allow a landphone call this is very helpful
- check also for other stuffs she/he is selling
- ask seller for authenticity for applicable items
- how about damages/small flaws? before making the purchase ask seller if refund/exchange is acceptable otherwise you have no way to return an item
- pay thru bank deposits this is a safer mode of payment per my experience

i hope it helps!

Oh another thing…now that you wrote about this Multiply shopping sites, how come these sites don’t list their prices? How come you have to post a comment to ask how much, if the size you want is available, if the color that you want is available, etc.? How come these sites don’t just list their prices, the colors and sizes available? It takes so much time to negotiate and do business this way. it should be just placing an order and then confirming through email that the seller accepted the order and informing the details of shipment , etc…..it’s such a hassle to do business like this , the way Multiply shopping sellers do it.

Since I’m based in the US and do not have any experience doing business with any Filipino local seller in Multiply, I cannot share any experience. But I can suggest something. Why don’t you (just one of you) set up a site that allows others to post their reviews about a shopping site. Those customers who wish to buy from a Multiply site must go and check that review site first and look up the reviews regarding the shopping site she’s about to deal with. In that way, she has an idea that how is business transaction made through that shopping site between seller and customer.
It’s like Ebay…a customer can post some review about the seller and rate the seller.
The site doesn’t necessarily mean it’s a shopping site. It should be foremostly a review site.

Don’t worry about it! It’s always great to hear opinions from the readers. Everyone’s encouraged to speak up. My only request is to be nice, if you know what I mean.

@Sasha; Ah, true enough. Yeah, I wanted to look professional and didn’t post any “bogus buyers” list. Although, I still have her picture if I wanted to post it. heheh.
