Do you prefer online bookstores or physical stores to buy a book? Why if YES and why if NO? Are you truly skeptical about transactions that take place online???
What are the sites that you generally prefer to purchase books online...? Have you ever sold your old used books to any of these site...?
I have started this discussion since i have known some friends of mine who generally don't prefer purchasing books online. They are both reluctant and afraid as they think that browsing books by stepping into a physical bookstore is much more satisfying than these online stores, since you can have a look at the book, feel it, flip through the pages and be satisfied by reading a line or two from its pages....
I agree with them...but what if you have a hectic schedule and are waiting to get your hands on your favourite author’s newly released novel, but don't have time to go into a store after your long office hours... In this case you need not flip through the pages (as you are pretty confident on the writings of your fav author), And why is it that online bookstores have still not gained the credibility and established a genuineness among the readers.... Kindly discuss....and if you do purchase books online, pls mention from where and why!!!
