Shopping is a fun experience in Vietnam, up until the time you need to find something a little unusual. After living in Vietnam for many years, I must note that the majority of my shopping experiences have been good ones. Despite some negative experiences, I've also had numerous positive ones that have made shopping in Vietnam enjoyable. The only point against online shopping was a very poor experience I had with obtaining a refund. I suppose I just need to forget my bad experiences and place some trust in local sellers before choosing to shop online.
