I was pregnant and unemployed that time (pinagresign kasi ako ni ron), all I could do is to sit in front of the computer. Sa sobrang pagkabored ko I stumbled upon an online shop in multiply selling a soap that reduces stretch marks. I bought from that shop and since then, my online shopping addiction never stopped. I buy things online because it is convenient and exciting. I have purchased a lot of stuffs online, from clothes, shoes, cosmetics, bags, baby apparels, accessories, baby gears, baby food, and a lot more. I was so amazed on what online shopping can do for stay at home moms like me that is why I decided to put-up my own online store. I opened an online shop in multiply. Mahirap magpromote ng items kaya it took me 1 week before I got my first ever buyer. Madami maganda naidudulot ang online shopping pero later on as I got familiar in this industry, nakita ko na meron ding mga negative sides. Andyan ang mga defective items, yun mga tipong maganda sa picture but after mo makuha yung item ang masasabi mo na lang “ay!”. Nagkalat din ang mga SCAMMERS.

I decided to create an online shop in Facebook. Kasi mas marami tao dun, mas malaki ang market yun nga lang mas madami ding SCAMMERS. Good thing there is such a some sort of “group of people” helping online shops and buyers na nageexist. I am lucky kasi nakita ko ang True blood SOSyalistas. It is a place where you can learn everything about online selling. Minsan nga about sa ibang bagay pero nasasagot pa din ng ibang members.

In that place I feel that I belong, I feel happy and secured. There will always be an older sister you can count on at TBS. You’ll find a  friend and defender, someone who’s a listener, conspirator, a counselor and a sharer of delights and sorrows too.

I am getting so bored and surfing the net and reading ebooks are the only things that keep me busy. Then I got curious about the tagged pictures of bags, shoes, make-ups, almost everything in facebook. I found out that they are selling things nowadays on facebook and most of them came on multiply. I created an account on multiply because most of the sellers are talking about order forms and stuff which is on multiply. Then I also created an account on sulit and ebay because some of the sellers says that they have also posted their stuffs for sale on those sites and I might find something to buy there. I end up browsing these sites looking for stuffs and comparing prices. Online shopping is fun, in fact I think its my kind of thing. I already got myself hooked to it. Here’s a pic of my orders.

I got this within a day after I send my payment thru paypal

It is carefully wrapped with a pink paper and bubble wrap and paper towels.

Here’s my nyx lipsticks from left to right: nyx round lipgloss (mauve), nyx round lipstick (tea rose, vitamin, frappucino)

After this experience I came with the following conclusions:

1. Shopping online is very convenient because you won’t have to deal with crowds and traffic

2. Sometimes the items are prettier on pictures than in real life, I mean like for this lipstick, I thought the tea rose shade is a bit lighter and I didn’t see that the vitamin has glitters ( i love glitters but I just don’t like lipsticks with glitters on it). But I must say i love frappucino and mauve they are fab!

3. There are items online which you can’t see on department stores. I read on some blogs that nyx lipsticks isn’t available here on the philippines. ( is it true?)

4. The tracking system on the website of jrs express isn’t working and it sucks. Why would they put it there if it is no good.

5. There are bogus sellers that might fool you.

6. It is better to compare prices on sulit, ebay, multiply and facebook for you to find your best buy

So there you have it. I will still shop online but maybe i’ll stop being compulsive. I saw this really pretty victoria secret on multiply and I am thinking of buying it. I am also thinking of selling things online, though I think its a bit more demanding than making paid reviews. Well who knows i might :)
