Online shopping is widespread in America and Europe but not so much in New Zealand. I think it's time New Zealanders got into it! I’ve been looking at this site www.ferrit.co.nz to see what all the hype is and actually found it to be quite useful. [font="]I think NZ has needed an Amazon.com type site for a while. Buying from overseas is fine except when it comes to the shipping fees!! What do you think? [/font]
for non-clothes items, shopping online is the way to go... i think NZ's problem is the small population. It is a lot easier for large companies like amazon to setup shop in Oz and have everyone in Oceania buy from there...
Yeah but Ferrit is real useful when buying new items - especially electronics. And you can compare the prices at different retailers which is quite handy.
I think online shopping in NZ is really taking off, I now buy all my underwear online from http://www.bras.co.nz a great site!
