    Alternative words for e-retailing are these except _________

    • E-buy

    • E-shop

    • Web-store

    Correct Answer

    The question asks for alternative words for e-retailing, excluding one option. The given options "e-store," "e-shop," and "Web-store" all refer to online retailing platforms. However, "e-buy" does not fit into this category as it does not refer to a specific retailing platform but rather the act of purchasing online. Therefore, "e-buy" is the correct answer as it does not represent an alternative word for e-retailing.

Instead, shipping companies or drop shipping methods are usually employed for this purpose.
