Online shopping mall is a way where you can purchase products directly via the internet, in the comfort of your home.
This is made possible because of the access to the Internet.
However, you can only do this if you are connected to the net, and if you have a debit card and a bank account. These are necessary requirements since you do not pay personally to the seller. Unlike shopping malls, you will not be facing the seller.
Aside from online purchase, you can also pay money in the online shopping mall through the use of your credit card.

However, you can also make use of some alternative cards, like debit and gift cards, and also postal money order. This is also your way of paying the product that you will purchase online.
After paying for your purchases in the online shopping mall, the mode of delivery varies.
If you purchased software, movie or any products from digital media, you will need to download it.
Meanwhile, they will ship the product if it is not from digital media. These products include gadgets, like computers or laptops or coffee makers.
There are three main categories of shopping that you can consider: simple shopping cart, auction site and personal purchase.
Simple shopping cart allows you to have different items and to adjust their quantities, through analogy by filling a shopping cart.
Online auction site allows you and the other buyers to have a forum together with the seller so that you can select their best product.
The biggest and simplest online shopping mall is Amazon.com. They offer the lowest price. All their products have low costs.
Moreover, they have big discounts, so any buyer can save much money. They also provide free deliveries for customers who are shopping online.
You can easily get the desired product from Amazon. Aside from the free delivery, you can have the product in the fastest way. You do not need to wait for a week, because you can have it in your home for one or two days.
The most well known auction site is the eBay. This is where you can get prices of goods much lower. It has many specialty sites like the eBay pulse.
This eBay pulse gives information regarding popular search terms and items that are most-watched. It also provides the latest trends and issues.
As an auction site, eBay offers some types of auctions. Auction style listings permit the seller to propose more than one item for a specific number of days.
He can set a reserve price. Meanwhile, the fixed price format permits the seller to propose one item or more for sale at a certain price.
A buyer who will go with the price will get immediately without going through the bidding process. Lastly, the fixed price format with best offer permits the seller to receive the best offers.
