I know the drill

Posted in: 2021 posts | My Dark Side | My Salty Side | Online Shopping

I've been buying stuff online since... before it's a thing in Malaysia...? I mean, there are local online shops, yes, but this is before Lazada & Shopee become part of almost everyone's life. I don't remember the exact year but it's probably between 2003-2005. 

I'm just trying to say, I know the drill. Maybe not everything.. but I'm generally very familiar with the process.


The only thing I'm not familiar with is... giving a review on stuff I purchased. 

Even on Goodreads, I only give reviews on books when I feel like it. It's the same for me now. I did try giving more reviews on Lazada last year but I stopped after one of my reviews got deleted (the horror! lol) just because I said something they thought was negative. The whole review was positive though, I gave 5 stars and they (the seller, I assume) deleted my review but left the photos I took. I don't think it bothered me too much but I did have like a sulking period XD where I don't want to give any reviews with words. Because what's the point if they are only going to delete it later lol. I've started giving reviews again afterwards for local sellers. No more reviews for China sellers who deletes reviews - and yes, in case you're wondering, I hold grudges [passively].

Anyway... on Carousell, I always leave reviews because that site needs those. Other buyers look at the sellers' reviews before deciding to buy things from them. 

Wait... I forgot why I'm talking about this. 

Oh yeah. Writing reviews are troublesome but I'll do them when I want to. 


I'm kind of sorry for being such a poor reviewer.
ごめん…(・´ω・`)ゞ
