Online shopping has become something very common for young people. However, it’s not easy for old people. Therefore, buy-for-you shops are becoming popular among the old.

Mr. Li, a 65-year-old man, is crazy about this way of shopping. He says, “I can’t use the Internet. After I happened to find a buy-for-you shop, I decided to try. Finally I got what I wanted. I was so happy.”

The shopkeeper Mu Lan says she started the business of offline buy-for-you in order to help people like Mr. Li. In only about ten days since the start of the business, she has received more than 20 orders from customers. Mu Lan is not the only one who finds the large need of offline buy-for-you business in the market. In her city, over 300 such shops opened their doors only in April.

In order to attract more customers, they have opened their shops in communities. And they charge a suitable service fee. For example, when buying things that cost less than 200 yuan for customers, they usually get 5 yuan as service fee.

What if there is any problem with the ordered thing, let’s say, like a quality problem? The shopkeepers say they will deal with any quality problems if people use their buy-for-you service.
