Due to the global appeal of the Internet and the convenience of online shopping, an increasing number of people are choosing to engage in online shopping (Javadi et al, 2012). According to Gandhi (2016), reports indicate that the number of global Internet users reached about 3.2 billion in June 2016 and the number will continue to increase in the 3-5 years. Li (2015) states that in China, which is the largest consumer market in the world, 688 million people made use of online shopping in 2015. This indicates that the growth potential of online shopping in the future is huge.
