who wants to return stuff

Most make it super easy. I think Amazon even includes a return label just in case. Waaay better than driving to a store with perfume masking stink, wait in line for fitting rooms, wait in line to pay. So many cons to going in store… most stores are stink boxes.

YES this. Cheap purfume is everywhere these days. I blame AXE commercials - because now men are wearing perfume more than women ever did.

point was that for clothing you can avoid returns by trying it on first

The real issue is: do you want to travel somewhere to try it on, or do you want to try it on in the comfort of your own home?

It's very subjective but personally, I enjoy going shopping for clothes. Unless I can't find the item in my city.

Stuff like electronics is different. Then I don't care about seeing and feeling the product beforehand. Instead I value that stuff is easy to findz search, price and availability. Though I still but stuff locally because I don't want to wait for shipping

To the store? Not me.

With a free UPS pickup because it was included with the purchase? Me.
