Online Shopping

This week's blog post is supposed to be on 3 things that I wouldn't buy online. The question is a bit tricky for me because what wouldn't I buy online? I've bought clothes, food, computers, TV's, event tickets, and books. My family has also bought spare parts, vitamins/supplements, eye-glasses, and even furniture.
After some consideration, I came to the conclusion that the only things that I wouldn't buy online are things that I need to see in person. For example, I wouldn't buy certain appliances like refrigerators on the internet. Why? Because I would like to be able to actually see how much space there is inside. Being told that something has 30 cubic feet of storage is different from seeing how big that space actually is. A desk is another good example. I want to see the desk in person so I can imagine how my things will go on it.
Something else that I wouldn't buy online would be vehicles. I might look around and shop online for prices, but I would like to be able to test drive it before buying.
That's about it really. All it boils down to is my being a more visual person and wanting to see these things in person so I can imagine what will happen to it.
