For example I want to buy a sofa. I went through the process to collect nice sofas online, but then went to the corresponding physical stores to see them in real. As it turns out, actually sitting on some or viewing close details made me dismiss every single sofa I thought were nice, for one reason or the other. I bought a sofa model that wasn't online available, and didn't look that good from a distance, but felt truly great once you were close and sat on it. There are things that I wouldn't shop online alone, because of examples like this. I have no problem to buy a phone or a macbook or $GADGET online, though.
