On the other hand, NuraAlam, a shopper who has bought products in Evaly, said, “I got a job just after my graduation. I was saving money to buy a 125cc bike. Because of Evaly, I was able to buy a 150cc bike with that money. I am also angry with Evaly. Delivery time takes a lot. However, many peoples’ dreams have been fulfilled for e-commerce like Evaly.
