▶ Your Answer : Some people think that people should refer to the
recommendation from friends and information from the Internet when they want to
buy something. However, in my opinion, people can be satisfied with the successful
shopping when they are given information from magazines ahead of buying product.
The reason is that it could give trustworthy information related to the
product and when I have to request maintenance service, I could call to service
center as it is on the magazine.
To begin with, obtaining information through the magazine can
be reliable source to buy product.
They usually give objective and accurate information of the
product while advices from friends and Internet community often do not. The
information from the friends and comments from the users on the Internet cannot
be fully reliable.
For example, when I wanted to buy a smartphone, I just tried
to get various information in terms of specific smartphone. When I was thinking
about the product, it came to my mind that my friend were using the smartphone
that I wanted to buy. So I just called and I could get some useful information
about the product but those were not the things that I could rely on since she
gave the only information related to the design of smartphone. At that time, I wanted
to change to a new cell phone with high quality related to the practical
functions, so the information was deficient for me. Eventually, I had to search
more information through the magazines and I could get accurate information
related to many other features of the smartphone. If I would have relied on the
information which was given from her, I could not understand the functions and
hesitated to buy that one.
On top of that, after buying the product, we could request
the customer service related to the problem of the product. In that case, we
could call to the service center as it is mentioned on the magazine.
On the other hand, if we buy the product with only the
comments on the Internet and recommendations of friends, we could lose the
critical information related to the customer service.
My example illustrates this. When I bought a laptop, I found
the problem in terms of closing cover of laptop. But as soon as I discovered
the defect, I found the magazine that I saw before the purchasing and I could
find the information related to the customer service center. With the
information, I could get new laptop with no problems at all. Without the help
of the magazine, I could not fixed it without delaying and waste of my energy.
To sum up, magazines offer more credible information about
products and they help customer get service through the details for customer’s
requests about the problem.
In this regard, I believe that obtaining information thorough
the magazines can be beneficial to make good purchase. |
