Truth Behind The Hidden Star Of The Online Shopping World

Most of the times the exciting offers are just the marketing techniques used by the websites to increase their user base. In some cases people can smell something fishy and become aware of these tactics and in some other cases they fail to read the terms and conditions before opting to purchase the product online.

As noted by Business Standard there are various hidden factors when it comes to shopping online . Let us have a look at some of the known but yet hidden features of the online market places to ponder over before you click on to the buy button.

The online retailers may fool you with Low price, high shipping cost tactics. People get attracted when they encounter products that are available online in just 1 to 100. Though it can be the cheapest price tags ever for the products, beware there can be hidden costs as well.

The trick is, though the product is available at its cheapest price, the shipping charges are high and thus at the end the total cost comes to same price as the product and may be a bit less but more than the expected price as shown on the site.

As seen in a recent trend take for example if a mobile cover is priced at 50 after 80 percent discount, the delivery charge would be 100; and if you buy more products the delivery charges would increase as well. Thus with this the company still makes profit and in actual you are paying approx the real price of the cover or may less than the discount offered.
