Qilu Network News According to Shandong Radio and television public channel "Truth Power" report, only unexpected, no "regiment" not to! Now, if you have not been on the Internet to participate in group buying, you are welcome to say, you are out. Online group purchase, is everyone through the website to unite into a big customer, and merchants bargain, so as to get a most favorable price. on the group purchase website, the discount on goods is very exciting, even 20 percent of the low price is not new. The price advantage makes group buying popular with many people, but there are many problems.

February 1, 2012, Mr. Zhang in Jinan, a group called the Seated Network to browse the site, was a chain of hotel rooms to attract the group. The Web page shows that the luxury standard between the original price of 268 yuan buy now only need 88 yuan. Not only that, seated also promised that this coupon in the national legal holidays can also be used. See here, Mr. Zhang immediately paid the money online.

From February 8 onwards, Mr. Zhang began to call to book a room, but each time the hotel's people heard that a group purchase, immediately said no room, see the validity of the group buy day by day approaching, Mr. Zhang pondering this hotel is afraid to live, so hurriedly complained, seated net customer service said, refund can, but this money cannot be returned to the bank card, Must be returned to Mr. Zhang's account in the seated net. In other words, the return of 88 yuan, Mr Zhang can only continue to spend on the seated online, and can not be used elsewhere.

Reporter survey found that, such as Mr. Zhang on the Internet to participate in hotel group buying is a lot of people fooled. In the hotel sales season, because the group purchase guests bring less revenue, the hotel will give priority to ordinary guests stay. With no vacant room to drag until the coupon expired, a lot of consumer money is like this water drift. Buy a room can not live to make people angry, if you live on the peace of mind?

Subsequently, the reporter in seated net buy a hotel a room, 79 yuan to stay at the original price of 268 Yuan standard room one night. The rooms on the website are bright and spacious, and the supporting facilities are also readily available. At the same time, the reporter found that the number of people participating in this group, has reached 175. In the afternoon, the reporter came to the water Tun Road in this hotel, showed a group purchase coupons, very smoothly handled the check-in formalities, then, the reporter came to the room.

When the waiter opened the door, a musty smell came from the house, dark and damp, bed, furniture gray and old, and even a crack on the wall. This is not connected to the spacious and bright room shown on the page. Facing the reporter's question, the hotel owner explained that the online picture is the suite photograph, the reporter check-in standard between is originally 268 yuan room. To find out whether this is a 268-dollar room, another journalist came to the hotel in the form of cash consumption.

Unexpectedly, the reporter repeatedly asked the person responsible and the waiter, their answer proved that this hotel only this 108-yuan standard room. From this view, buy online so-called 268-yuan room even if the cash consumption is not 108 yuan. And the image of the high-end suites posing as normal standard room, but also to mislead consumers, attract more people fell into the trap of this group purchase.

In addition to the hotel room group purchase problems, recently enthusiastic citizens reflect, he in 58 group buy online wedding photography again. The reporter then found this message, 988 Yuan Huan enjoy the original price of 3688 Yuan wedding photography package. Is there really such a "cost-effective" wedding photography? Reporter with doubt group buy this package, and according to the agreement came to the wedding photography studio.

The wedding photography shop is hidden in a residential building, a room less than 10 square meters is both the powder and the warehouse where clothes are placed. More than 50 are not very new clothes, wrinkled crowded together. The studio is less than five square meters, the interior is all cloth hanging, there is no real, and the site is introduced with 36 of interior and many scenes, the reality and the publicity on the site has great access. At the same time, the reporter also found that, although only 2 of new photos, but only 4 employees were still in a hurry, and a photographer who admitted to the store for only two months had claimed to have been here for a year and recommended that the pictures hanging on the wall were taken by their own photographers, but in fact, in other homes, Reporters have seen the exact same picture.

Not only that, the net originally promised eight sets of dresses shrunk into four sets, the original price of group buy and store prices do not match, and so on, many doubts are misleading consumers suspected. For many buyers, more or less have encountered the trap of online group buying, but few people know how to defend rights.

In this respect, the lawyer said, if the merchant sold to the consumer does not conform to the website description commodity, the merchant should undertake the corresponding compensation responsibility. If the group purchase site does not fulfill the obligation to review, the site should also bear the corresponding obligations. If consumers buy the goods and the purchase site does not match, you can directly find the seller to claim, but also to do not make a review of the obligations of the Group purchase site to claim compensation.

Here, the Qilu network also reminds the vast number of consumers, in the network buy, remember, one, do not believe excessively low price buy, see the terms of the transaction, especially after the protection of an item, to see if there is no "overlord clause." Second, check the relevant Netizen evaluation and Word-of-mouth. There is a regular group buy network, its contact methods generally have mailboxes, telephones, contacts, addresses and other information. Informal group buying network generally will only have a QQ number or e-mail, or even only an "online submission." Third, in the process of consulting the website, if the site is anxious to send you remittances, but also to your request happy promised, such sites should be vigilant.

As the saying goes, buy better than sell. Many people think of group buying as a drop of pie in the sky, actually unknowingly entered the business trap. People who have had an online shopping experience know that credibility, praise degree is a group buying network to survive the ruler, then, why some websites published business information There are so many false propaganda, before cooperation, the site has no actual investigation of the merchant, the site and the merchant between what is not known to the interests of the chain?
