Online shopping in Turkey

Hello everyone,

Shopping online can be far more convenient and offer greater choice than going into shops, be it grocery shopping or retail.

Are there options for online shopping in Turkey? Which sites or apps do you use most frequently and are these local or international?

Are there particular products that are cheaper to buy online or that are perhaps not available in Turkey?

What is the delivery process like — is it easy to receive deliveries and what are the costs of shipping? Are there any taxes to pay upon receipt?

Thank you for sharing your experience.

dear priscilla,
you better use a search engine for "online shopping turkey" to avoid unfair competition.
pls note that leading brands have their own online shopping options in their web sites.
some of the others which sale several kinds of products may be cheaters, they take yr attention by low prices but the thing delivered is different than you expected to buy. it is better to prefer the ones which supply cargo agains cash on delivery term so that you can check it.
best rgds

Hello,

Living in Turkey for decades, I can tell you online shopping here is very good.
Online shopping sites I use and recommend are :
Gittigidiyor, this is an afiliate site of e-Bay. https://www.gittigidiyor.com
HepsiBurada: http://www.hepsiburada.com/   
IKEA, also provides online shopping: https://www.ikea.com.tr/en/shop-online/
If you want second hand items from the owner, Sahibinden.com : https://www.sahibinden.com

These are the major online shopping sites and each site contracts a dispatching delivery company and they are very effective also. No need to worry. They are first class companies.

i have heard about the food and clothing.

People are very good to behave and caring in nature.

Beware while in shopping , specially for expats the market is not really fare enough, we need to  bargain for the reasonable price.
