CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of the Study
Online shopping can be defined as a form of electronic devise for
purchasing without any intermediary services (Gupta, 2013). And
according to Wikipedia Online shopping is a form of electronic commerce
which allows consumers to directly buy goods or services from a seller
over the Internet using a web browser. Consumers find a product of
interest by visiting the website of the retailer directly or by searching
among alternative vendors using a shopping search engine, which
displays the same product's availability and pricing at different e-retailers.
As of 2020, customers can shop online using a range of different
computers and devices, including desktop computers, laptops, tablet
computers and smartphones.

On the other hand consumer preference is the result of comparing

the expectations and the experience. Knowing the preference of

costumers in buying online determining the success of the market concept

implementation. Satisfied customers are the ones that will repeat the

purchase if the service provider reached or exceeded their expectations. It

is significant to identify the variables that brings impact on consumer

satisfaction, since they present the business benchmark and serve as a

guide to future improvement. (Vasić et.al 2020) Due to better purchase

conditions, consumers use the Internet to buy the same product at a lower

price than in the store. Many customers expect online stores to offer their

products and services at the lower price in comparison to traditional


ROSARIO INSTITUTE 5
“A Tradition of Quality Education”

stores. Discounts while purchasing influence consumers to believe in

prices, and ultimately, they affect their satisfaction. A number of studies

have determined that the pricing is significantly related to customer

satisfaction. Pricing directly affects the perception on the transaction’s

delivered value and usability, and, consequently, customer satisfaction.

Negative perception on pricing makes customers feel dissatisfied and

disloyal. (Kaurin 2019) states that shipping is a link in the supply chain

that directly affects the consumer and triggers their satisfaction. Shipping

presents a key activity in every process, and especially in online shopping.

The product delivery service is a prerequisite for customer’s satisfaction. It

implies that the customer will receive the ordered product, which is well

packed, and whose amount, quality and specification are in accordance

with the order, as well as the set delivery time and place. With a single

click, consumers can easily switch from one website to another if they are

dissatisfied with delayed and unsecured deliveries. It is therefore essential

for the delivery to be realized in accordance with the consumers’

requirements. Moreover, (Suthamathi et. al 2020) the quality of product at

online site and offline stores varies a lot and then this determines the

frequency of online shopping. Quality also carries good distressing nature

over any kind of shopping. As customer or buyer want to have a good

quality of product as they spent their huge sum of currency. In general,

qualities is a primary need over any variety of purchasing as it somewhat

safe or give a good sense of buying or type of assurance about the

product chosen.

This study focused on three determinants to identify the costumer’s

preferences on buying online and those are price, quality and shipping. As

perceived by selected 120 grade 12 students of Rosario Institute S.Y.

2020-2021.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

This chapter includes the ideas, study and others finished thesis
that helps to familiarize information that are related to the study.

2.1 Foreign Authors

Gaurav, 2017) In present scenario customers are busy that they

don’t have enough chance and time to go to shopping centers and

purchase the things they need, everybody likes to do online shopping. In

online, Product assortment is very huge to choose, and make immediate

comparison in price, quality, variety, colour and also get product-based

information like customer feedback. (Goswami, 2015) Product assortment

is very huge to choose, and make immediate comparison in price, quality,

variety, color and the other two important factors which are affecting

Indian market that nobody wants to pay for the shipping of the product but

in India is typically a bigger issue, when a consumer sees that they are

being made to pay for the shipping it takes to move out of the platform

immediately. However, if they have a free shipping option they are

basically more ready to take the risk because they’re still in that initial

stage of purchase decision where they are learning the platform. And try
ROSARIO INSTITUTE 12
“A Tradition of Quality Education”

to assimilate the platform so free shipping becomes very critical and cash

on delivery.

(Handoko 2016) Delivery service is absolutely important in e-

commerce, because it is the last stage of the order fulfillment process and

from the consumers’ point of view, the most critical. Timely and reliable

delivery must be the number one priority and is crucial to the success of

every online shop on the planet. Ziaullah, Yi and Akhter (2014) stated that

in the scenario of online shopping environment, reliable, safe and timely

delivery is fundamental and integral objective of online buyers. Customers

tend to buy products at home and they required safe, reliable and quick

delivery of desired product at their destinations. Ziaullah, Yi and Akhter

(2014), which argues that product quality in terms of performance is the

most fundamental determinant of customer’s satisfaction. This result

recommends to online shop owners to provide consistent quality products,

offer attractive various products and ensure product availability to their

customers. Therefore, these sorts of product related characteristics can

develop, sustain and improve customer satisfaction in online shopping.

Product quality is one of the common and serious problem that can be

found in online shopping. It will affect consumer satisfaction at the same

time. According to Tarun Mittal (2017), he stated that consumer have no


ROSARIO INSTITUTE 13
“A Tradition of Quality Education”

guarantee of a product’s quality when purchase things online even though

having a review of the product.

(Kilibarda 2019) While shopping online, customers cannot see or

test the product; hence, they are not certain that the delivered product is

identical to the one on the website. Consequently, price perception has a

more significant role [46], [63]. As online stores offer consumers a range

of products and services, consumers can compare product prices from

different websites and find the products at lower prices than the prices in

the stores [60] some websites, such as Ebay, offer consumers an auction

or the best deal, thus providing them a good deal for their product.

(Loces 2017) With so much at stake, clients usually prefer to sacrifice

better deals that are offered by less reputable sellers, to buy a more

expensive product, offered by a known and trusted store with a higher rate

of repurchase and better prestige among other consumers [35] [18].

Considering this behavior observed among most customers of online

stores, we decided to extend the Internet Shopping Optimization Problem

to include a rating for each e-commerce to additionally obtain the best

possible price for a given shopping list, give the customer a set of options

based on the reputability of the stores from a lower to higher risk.

2.2 Local Authors

(Manglinong 2018) Online shopping has been a growing craze in

the Philippines in the past few years. A study conducted as early as 2015

found that 9 out of 10 Filipinos preferred online shopping. The same study

found that convenience, cheaper prices and special deals were the

leading reasons for the respondents’ preference for online shopping .

According to the Visa eCommerce Consumer Monitor 2014. Filipino

consumers are seeing value in online shopping, with as much as nine out

of 10 consumers going online to shop at least once a month.

Benefits such as convenience (58%), price (47%), and deals (46%) are

being cited as top reasons for online shopping. However (Claudia, 2012)

stated consumers fear that delivery will be delayed due to various

circumstances; the delivery company may not deliver within the time frame

agreed with customers, or consumers fear that the goods may be

damaged when handled and transported, or no proper packaging and

handling during transportation. Vos (2016), it is better for online stores to

show good communication with customers by showing delivery options

display on their website as well as customers are delighted when the

online website would send an email confirmation and information on how

to track their orders. Through this, customers are assured that their items

will be delivered in time. (Yousaf et.al. 2012) Buying online is more


ROSARIO INSTITUTE 15
“A Tradition of Quality Education”

convenient to do as compared to traditional buying. It allows quick price

comparisons and fast access to product information. (Nan et. al, 2017)

The consumer’s confidence in buying certain product through online

shopping are sometimes affected by social influence that they usually

gather from reading the comments or reviews of other previous buyers.

Consumers tend to vote for reviews with high varied uncertainty, while

they continue to prefer to purchase product with less product uncertainty

from reviews. Stojanov (2012) added that perceived quality is considered

to be one of the core determinants of customer behavior and product

success.

2.2 Synthesis

The buying preference of the online shoppers is depending on

their budget of purchasing product. Most of the Filipinos online shoppers

are affected on increasing of price that can affect their preference on

purchasing product. Price is the major reason of buyers’ choice to

purchase specific product and it is the most difficult part for the marketers

even though it has a probability of their success but there will be a various

reason because of the individual differences. The online seller must have

a huge experience for them to give a good quality of service. Quality has

the important role that affects the online shopper preference. The
ROSARIO INSTITUTE 16
“A Tradition of Quality Education”

marketers use advertising for the consumers to remember brand name of

a product. Quality is used to satisfy the customer and retaining their

loyalty. Through online shopping one can save his valuable time. Through

online shopping we can save our money because prices are less than

market prices and we receive our bought things at our home. The

costumers also consider the delivery of the item they purchased. Safe and

on time delivery is the priority of the costumer. The costumer will be

satisfied if they will receive the item with no damage and base on the

agreement and promised date of the online seller. Delayed deliveries and

damage product was very inconvenient. So, having good communication

of costumer and seller is recommended to assure the safe and on time

delivery Top of Form

Summary, Conclusion, and Recommendations

5.1 Summary

The study is entitled “Price, Quality, Shipping: It's Impact on the

preference of selected grade 12 students of Rosario Institute S.Y. 2020-

2021 on buying online” it seeks to identify their predisposition in choosing

product in Online business.

Additionally, it also identifies what are the different perception on

shopping online. The researchers use quota sampling to finalized the 120

selected respondents and the researchers chose 10 students per section

to represent our study. The survey result is showed using graph

representation. Using this graph representation, it indicates that online

shopping is effective to use nowadays. The researchers used Quantitative

research design in gathering the data.

The main objective was to know the preference of students on

Buying online. Some of these are the following: (1) The students are

happy on cheap deals and better prices are available online, because

products come to you direct from the manufacturer or seller without

involving middlemen. (2) Comparing and researching products and their

prices is so much easier online. (3) Many stores will offer free shipping if


ROSARIO INSTITUTE 32
“A Tradition of Quality Education”

you purchase a certain amount. Others will offer yearly subscription

services that offer free shipping for every item bought. 

The results showed that the students considered on buying online

as their way to save money and time. It also shows that the technology in

our country is improving.

5.2 Conclusion

Based on the research conducted and the data gathered, the

researchers concluded that:

1. Many consumers prefer to buy online products at lower price that

will meet their standards when they receive the product. Discounts

can also trigger the customers to buy online.

2. Product quality as one of independent variables partially affects

online-customer satisfaction positively.

3. Delivery time of items is quite important factor in online shopping

to satisfy consumers’ demands. Compared with shopping at brick-

and-mortar stores, consumers cannot use items immediately after

they purchase at online shopping site. In this regard, consumers

might recognize delivery time as their cost. Thus, online shopping

retailers have required parcel delivery operators to reduce delivery

time. In this study, we mainly consider the travel and delivery time

as consumer’s cost. This is because the travel time is regarded as

We therefore recommended this study:

1. Online stores must demonstrate that online shopping is not only

convenient, safe, easy and fun. They must also offer other

incentives and motivations to attract consumers. Thus, in addition

to building consumer confidence, offering more rewarding shopping

experiences than what is presently available, would benefit in

increasing a number of consumers to shop online and to continue

doing so in the future.

2. Marketers need to seriously consider providing Online

information on the products or services they sale.

3. The researchers recommend buying online because you'll never

be tired of walking when canvassing for a particular product.

4. The researchers recommend buying online because it is easy

and you can look for products within your budget.

5. The researchers recommend buying online for the fact that

everything you need is just a click away.
