It's interesting to see how the e-commerce landscape is evolving. While the heyday of online shopping has provided consumers with great benefits like lower prices and convenience, it's also a reminder of how quickly the industry can change. This shift could have implications for both consumers and e-commerce companies.
One way for retailers to adapt to these changes is by leveraging technology like Cloud ERP for retailers. This can help them streamline their operations, improve efficiency, and better understand consumer behavior. With the right tools and strategies, retailers can continue to thrive in the ever-changing e-commerce landscape.
E- commerce will be the future, for everything we buy. Only the luxury high end goods will be transact at shops. 

The convenience, wide selection in design and price comparison, easy payment with refund assurance, review from consumers, save the trouble of travelling and carrying back the goods, making it too easy in purchasing.

There is not much market share left to fight for
