This type of selling has started in India in recent years. This type of selling operates through detailed color catalogues providing pictorial designs and shades in which an item is available. They bear code numbers and price per each unit. Orders are sent through price plus postages pre paid by post. However this system has disadvantage that the product cannot be seen or tried before the final purchase. More over the instruction given on the products can be followed only by literate consumers who can benefit from such sources
