For several years， Americans have enjoyed teleshopping watching TV and buyingthings by phone. Now teleshopping is starting in Europe. In a number of European countries，people can turn on their TVs and shop for clothes， jewelry， food， toys， and many otherthings. Teleshopping is becoming popular in Sweden， for example. The biggest Swedishcompany sells different kinds of things on TV in 15 European countries， and in one year itmade $ 100 million. In France there are two teleshopping channels， and the French spendabout $ 20 minion a year to buy things through those channels. In Germany， until last year teleshopping was only possible on one channel for 1 hourevery day. Then the government allowed more teleshopping. Other channels can open fortelebusiness， including the largest Americti teleshopping company and a 24-hourteleshopping company. German businesses are hoping this new teleshopping will help themsell more things. Some people like teleshopping because it allows them to do their shopping withoutleaving their homes. With all the problems of traffic in the cities， this is an important reason.But at the same time， other Europeans do not like this new way of shopping. They canteleshopping "junk on the air". Many Europeans usually，worry about the quality ofthe things for sale on TV. Good quality is important to them， and they believe they cannotbe sure about the quality of the things on TV. The need for high quality means that European teleshopping companies will have to bedifferent from the American companies. They will have to be more careful about the qualityof the things they sell. They will also have to work harder to sell things that the buyerscannot touch or see in person.
