How to make money selling luxury goods at original price through purchasing agents in Europe

Make money through commissions.

The purchase price of overseas purchasing products includes the overseas purchase price, international postage for combined mailing and purchasing commission. Generally speaking, the purchasing commission is usually 5% to 10% of the product price. The more expensive the item, the more obvious the price difference.

Generally, overseas purchases of luxury goods only include combined postage, and domestic postage is paid on delivery, which means that the above quotation must also add 50-100 domestic postage. In addition, if you send it by direct mail, you will need to add 200-500 yuan depending on the country, and tax is not included. The shoes do not come with shoe boxes, and no invoices are provided. There is also a kind of purchasing agent that is said to earn tax refund money. When buying goods in Europe, there is a tax deduction. The tax refund amount is generally 15%-16% of the product price. Some discounted products may be even lower, equivalent to "Discount and get cash back". Purchasing agents often use "human express delivery" to bring goods back to China through relatives and friends traveling abroad or on business trips. The categories of these purchasing agents are scattered and small in scale. In addition, for the same European purchasing agent, the price of the same bag purchased in Poland and the Netherlands will be several hundred to 1,000 lower than in other countries. In the UK, the same product will be more expensive than in France and Italy because it is settled in pounds.

In order to prevent being cheated, you must pay attention to these:

The first thing to look at is the price. Generally speaking, for luxury goods purchasing agents, if the online price is 5% of the domestic counter price, -30% off, it may be a mix of genuine and fake products, anything below 50% off is basically fake, and anything sold below 30% off cannot be genuine.

Secondly, it depends on the sales volume. The transportation time of overseas purchasing products is long, and some products have quantity restrictions when purchasing, making it difficult for merchants to supply large quantities of goods in stock. Under normal circumstances, it takes 15 to 20 days to purchase a product from the United States and send it to a domestic buyer through international logistics. In addition, many health products and infant food supplements have quantity limits for Chinese consumers to purchase.

The third factor is quality. Take bags as an example. Generally, luxury bags have their own unique smell, but fakes are made of inferior materials and the smell is more pungent and unpleasant. Big brand products have strict workmanship requirements, and the hardware has high quality, so there will be no problems with glue opening or uneven stitching. Because imitations are batch-processed in small factories, the stitching inside the bag will be rough and the interfaces will easily crack.
