Whether an online store is cheaper than a physical store can depend on several factors, such as product type, retailer, and location. Some online stores may offer lower prices than physical stores due to lower overhead costs, while others may offer competitive prices but charge shipping fees.

In general, online stores have lower overhead costs because they don't have to pay the rent, utilities, and personnel costs associated with maintaining a physical store. This can allow them to offer lower prices to customers. Additionally, online stores can offer a larger selection of products and can easily compare prices from multiple suppliers, which can result in lower prices for the consumer.

On the other hand, physical stores offer the advantage of being able to physically inspect a product before purchasing it, as well as the convenience of being able to take the product home immediately. Brick-and-mortar stores may also offer services such as repair and maintenance, which can be difficult to find online.

In conclusion, whether an online store is cheaper than a physical store can vary, and it is important to consider all costs associated with each option, including shipping, handling, and any fees additional information before making a decision.
