I will review one of the online buying and selling websites, http://www.shopee.co.id. The online marketplace which is the youngest of the new aliases is indeed popular among fans of online shopping.
Shopee Indonesia was officially introduced in Indonesia in December 2015 under the auspices of PT Shopee International Indonesia. Since its launch, Shopee Indonesia has experienced very rapid development, even as of October 2017 the application has been downloaded by more than 25 million users. Offering a one stop mobile experience, Shopee provides a live chat feature that makes it easy for sellers and buyers to interact with each other easily and quickly.
Shopee Indonesia implements an interactive buying and selling service system between sellers and buyers through the live chat feature. Shopee provides various payment systems through bank transfer, Indomaret, Kredivo, to credit cards. In addition, there is also an electronic wallet, Shopee Pay which can hold all funds, both from sales or purchases.
Shopee Indonesia also has a “Shopee Coin” feature, which is a virtual coin obtained from the purchase of goods with certain promos using the cashback system. Later, these “Shopee Coins” can be exchanged for discounts when purchasing the next item.
To ensure that the goodas sent by the Shopee seller reach the buyer, Shopee Indonesia applies the Shopee Guarantee system as a guarantee of one hundred percent money back if the goods do not arrive. live chat feature that makes it easy for sellers and buyers to interact with each other easily and quickly.
Shopee Advantages
1. Ease of inputting product images to be marketed there. Up to 9 images can be uploaded simultaneously on Shopee.
2. In the sales department, there are features that will make it easier for the seller when waiting for payment, the product that must be sent, until the transaction status is complete.
3. The special feature “goods are blocked” that can facilitate the user when there are problems with the product being sold.
4. There is a direct chat feature between seller and buyer.
5. Product variant features that will simplify and are perfect for selling products that have a variety of colors, patterns, or sizes.
6. There is a feature to take photos from Instagram and add hashtags up to 18 maximum hashtags.
7. Application available for Playstore (Android) and iTunes (Apple).
8. Currently there are still many promotional programs such as free shipping (JNE), promotions on the front page are still free.
9. There are features to provide reviews of products that have been purchased and upload photos of products that have been received to provide feedback to the seller.
10. Has no restrictions on products to sell here.
Shopee Disadvantages
1. There are parts of buyers and sellers, so it seems inefficient and complicated.
2. For free shipping promo, the conditions that must be met seem difficult and troublesome.
3. Disbursement of funds to an account that is counted very long after the transaction process is successful.
4. Sometimes the site is difficult to access or even slow at certain hours.
5. Although it can input a relatively large number of images, in some cases sometimes the image upload often fails.
6. Besides images, when inputting receipt numbers via the application also often fails.
My conclusion is Shopee is the most popular and trusted online buying and selling site because there are already lots of users who transact on this e-commerce site. Because it already uses the payment method by applying the Shopee Guarantee system as a money back guarantee if the goods do not arrive, the buyer is very safe in buying and selling transactions at Shopee.
