Shopping precautions:

The reason why many people are easily deceived when shopping is because they are not calm-minded and act on impulse. They cannot stand the rhetoric of merchants and cannot see through the essence of "discounts" and "sales". Not checking the purchased items carefully, not asking for shopping receipts, and having no evidence or evidence afterwards, there is no excuse. To this end, consumers should pay attention to the following points when shopping:

Check whether the product has a trademark, manufacturer, date, shelf life and certificate of conformity.

Identify the authenticity of the product and verify the appearance quality in person. If you are not sure, it is best to bring a knowledgeable friend with you.

Request a shopping receipt. The receipt must contain the name of the unit, product name, brand, model, price, quantity, etc. You must also see whether it is an invoice issued by the Finance and Taxation Bureau.

It is difficult to repair or replace imported goods, and repair, replacement, or refund are not guaranteed for foreign-made and disposed goods, so be particularly cautious when shopping.

When purchasing goods, in order to ensure the quality of shopping, consumers must achieve the "five clarities", that is, think clearly, ask questions clearly, listen clearly, see clearly, and remember clearly.

Think clearly. That is to say, you must think carefully before purchasing and "think twice before you act." Especially when purchasing large or high-end items, you should carefully consider factors such as whether you really need them, where to buy them, etc. Don't follow the latest trends, join in the fun, or let others mislead you.

Ask clearly. It means asking for basic information about the product during the shopping process. You should ask questions clearly when you have any doubts, especially about the vague introductions in various propaganda of the operators. You must ask what should be asked to avoid being deceived.

Some merchants take advantage of consumers’ vanity, care for face, and generosity when shopping and receiving services, and set up clever traps and tricks to promote fake and shoddy goods and steal ill-gotten gains. Listen clearly. Just listen clearly to the merchant’s introduction during the shopping process. Listen to see if he lies, hear if he answers questions that are wrong, hear if he has secret words. If he doesn't know clearly, don't buy it. If you buy in a hurry without hearing clearly, you will end up with either quality problems or price losses.
