Lazada Review: Quality shopping for Filipinos nationwide

You know you’re getting old when you lose track of the latest. When you’re young and hip, it comes as second nature to try to find out what’s happening with all things mainstream whether it be fashion, pop culture, music, technology, etc. Teenagers are hungry for popularity and not wanting to conform doesn’t mean you don’t have that one-pint of hunger for fame in your body. Because naturally, we all just want to belong. But sadly, it’s those from the older generation that can afford to live the lifestyle of what teenagers can only dream of. We make their dreams a reality for them. Because regardless of how much they want it, only people over their 20’s can really make it happen. As for me, despite being part of the older generation that only was exposed to such extravagance specifically with technology very late, I have to say I know far more than what people expect from me.

Online shopping has surprisingly become such a big hit in the Philippines. So many Filipinos now dive right in to the latest promos and discounts hosted online regardless of how tacky the host site selling may be. The power of the internet has truly made itself known to everyone even those in provinces that you’d think wouldn’t have access to such. But the very fact that even families from the lower class sees to it to have a Facebook account gives online selling better chances of reaching out to a nationwide market.

Lazada definitely took advantage of this that it even came up with a catalogue of over 20, 000 items made specifically to interest different types of consumers no matter what type of class they are from. And frankly, it’s not like it matters because it sees to it that through insane discounts of all sorts, the majority can afford the merchandise it sells. Its job is to provide the most affordable items in the country without sacrificing the quality of each product. Something the popular website has certainly been successful doing for many months now.

If before we were hesitant about the potential that online shopping could bring to many companies, now companies can’t wait to create a website of its own that will be able to properly illustrate what it sells in its outlet stores. But for some brands and household names, it chooses to tap on various online shopping malls instead like Apple, L’Oreal, Blackberry, Canon, etc. all of which can also be bought from Lazada Philippines. Filipinos can get a feel of what it’s like to live the lavish lifestyle of having someone else get their orders for them. Because with majority of the online sites like Lazada, deliveries are normally mandatory unless meet ups are available. Meetups however pose a huge threat on the part of both parties because of the lack of security unlike with deliveries normally made by established delivery services like what 2GO and LBC are to Lazada. There are countless ways to ensure the safety of one’s order, but overall what matters is the relationship you build with your outlet store that could greatly affect the performance of your processed delivery.
