“I am even more fashionable than my daughter who have no idea what fashion is and how to appreciate fashion” my mother often claims like this. The reason why my mother says so is I refuse to accept shopping online. While many older and middle-aged people, for instance my mother, all give up the traditional shopping style and buy things online. I just can not persuade myself to believe these online stores where most goods are fakes with extremely poor quality. While my mother is a loyal supporter of online shopping and firmly believes that online shopping is convenient and efficient. Consequently, you will not surprise to find that over 90% of goods that my mother chose are from online shops, including home and garden appliance, brand accessories, etc. And when I read the newspapers this morning, a piece of news in the first page drew my attention. “More than 1200 scam online stores were shut down yesterday by U.K. police and it is said to be the biggest swoop in the world.” I called my mother right away and told her this news because two days ago, she just showed me that she ordered a piece of nice Tiffany necklace from an online store. The fact was my mother was still waiting for her parcel. Moreover, it is upset for her to find that the website she bought this Tiffany necklace disappeared. So I just took the chance to ask her not to buy things online any longer so as to avoid more lose. You can imagine how depressed my mother was. But what made she more upset was that she lost a place to buy thing. “That store is really sound,” she said with a pity. Then, in the evening my mother called me excitedly and told me that her parcel just arrived and she got her brilliant Tiffany necklace. “The shop is OK, it is doing some improvements now, so I can not open their website,” my mother said, “they sent me an email and explained that they had updated the old one www.tiffanystore.co.uk into www.tiffanystore.org” She even asked me to change my prejudice toward online shopping. Maybe my Mom is right. I should change my opinion toward online shopping. But it is also true that over 1200 websites are shut. So I believe that online shopping has both advantages and disadvantages.
