In the past I have wasted money on items that looked good in photos but felt cheap in real life. Sometimes I do not mind waiting longer if the price is fair and the quality is solid. If a website gives a detailed guide for measurements, I feel more confident when ordering.
If anyone is interested in real user experiences, I sometimes write short notes about the shops I test.

If the first order goes well, I slowly try more products from the same place. I do not trust only the star rating, I like to see detailed photos and longer comments. Now I am more careful with impulse buys and limited time offers. That is why I sometimes leave comments myself when I test a new shop or product. For daily use items I try to balance price, build quality and real user feedback. I also check if the lenses have any blue light filter or anti-reflection coating. People who share height and weight information make it easier to choose the right size. Of course shipping delays can happen, but good communication reduces stress.
Just sharing my personal feedback.
