My Appreciation...❤
Recently, I had been doing some online sales corresponding to Mother's Day. During that period, I did receive some comments/emails stating that the item that I sold was far quite expensive compared to others. Hence, I browsed through the websites that they provided.
Indeed, there were some differences. However, I found that in M'sia, the price stated for the items are mostly for the standard size pan and not the ocher deeper that I'm selling (of course, I also managed to find a few webs selling ocher deeper pan with much lower price as well.)
At the same time, I also came upon some websites stating that they had bought fake pans. After reading their articles, I immediately checked all the pans that I had purchased from my supplier and was relieved to find that all the pans were real. (So, I told those who left comments to me -> 1st, the price they stated was for the standard size pan. 2nd, I don't know where they got their stocks and I'm not sure whether the pan is real or fake but what I'm confirm with is mine is 100% real from Korea.)
Even though this had passed, I still browse through the websites just to find out why some of those online sellers can sell their pans/items at such low prices. In conclusion, I find that it was my source. I got the pans at a slight higher price than the others and that makes me need to raise the price a bit in order to gain profit. (Well, doing business is to get profit, right?)
Other than that is the shipping method. Maybe I'm quite lucky. Last Wednesday, I went to the custom to retrieve my stocks and the custom officers gave me very good advices. They told me that I should go for the normal shipping instead of speedy shipping. Although speedy shipping is fast but the fee is also very costly compared to normal shipping (Speedy shipping cost is twice or more than the cost of normal shipping. Shipping fee in M'sia will also be used to calculate the tax being imposed.) In short, no matter what method I used, I will eventually received my stocks. It is only the matter of time but the price gap is huge...
Frankly said, I'm still new to this online open market but through those few 'sales' days, I really learnt a lot of priceless experiences. So, at here, I sincerely thanked those who left comments to me to do some soul-searching. Now, I'm very actively finding more suppliers that can give me a very good price for the items I want to purchase so that I can also give 'my future customers' reasonable price. I'm also actively finding forwarding/freight/shipping company that can be trusted that can help me with the dealing at custom.
For those who have purchased items from me, a really big THANK U and HUG from me to you. Thanks for your support and I'll try to do better in future.
Till then, thanks again =]
