Tips for best online shopping experience
* On Flipkart, if possible buy only from WS Retail
* On Amazon, if possible buy only the items that are part of "fulfilled by Amazon" programme
* In any virtual marketplace, buy only from sellers that have good reputation (feedback score) and have done a few hundred transactions
* On eBay, pay through PaisaPay and get the items through courier. This creates a record of the transaction, which can be useful if you face issues with a seller. Also, eBay doesn't release PaisaPay money to a seller unless it gets a confirmation that the product has been delivered
* If you run into an issue, raise a claim with the platform owner immediately. Also, communicate with the seller on email so you have some documentary proof
* If possible, buy from only the sellers that list their contact numbers and emails IDs
* If possible, buy only the goods that come with official warranty and not "seller warranty"
