Navigating the online shopping minefield
Buying on the internet is the future but be wary of the fine print and make sure you get a genuine product.
The season of sale is on. It’s not uncommon to see online retailers announcing “minimum 90 per cent off” or “flat 70 per cent off”. Some deals are available for Rs 1 and coupons worth Rs 10,000 if you sign up. The discounts and pricing seem tempting, until you scratch beneath the surface.
Chetan Tandel was looking for furniture for his new home. Online retailer Pepperfry offered him a Rs 10,000 free coupon on a sign-up.
