Purchase Threshold To Raise The Air Hostess Returnees Purchasing?

A new LV bag can save nearly 4000 yuan, and a bottle of Clinique lotion can be reduced by 40%. Thanks to overseas purchasing, the announcement issued by the General Administration of Customs recently said that after September 1st, the import tax threshold for personal mailing items was reduced from 500 yuan to 50 yuan. This means that the threshold for overseas purchasing is about to increase. As news goes, Taobao's online shopping and consumption have reached people's pain. The only good news is that private purchasing agents such as flight attendants and returnees do not seem to be affected.

New regulations overpower

In the notice issued by the General Administration of customs, it is stipulated that customs import duties shall be levied by the customs in accordance with the law. However, the customs duties shall be exempted if the amount of the imported tax is less than 50 yuan (including 50 yuan). However, prior to that, the tax exemption amount of our customs duty on postal articles was 500 yuan, exceeding the quota.

"When the new deal comes out, basically buying a thing is more than a tax exemption standard."

A Taobao seller named cheery complained that "the purchasing business is not so good, and the cost has increased by at least 30%."

Airline stewardess

"My daughter is an air hostess, so the clothes in our shop are authentic Korean clothes."

The owner of a boutique shop in Stadium Road said that because her daughter is a stewardess, it is convenient to purchase clothes everywhere and has the privilege of tax exemption.

As a matter of fact, air hostesses are always on sale.

Selina, a Hangzhou stewardess who specializes in buying and selling Taobao, told reporters that she had been buying for more than two years.

However, only four or five duty-free shops are allowed to buy a flight attendants. The amount is between 2000-3000 yuan, mainly cosmetics and watches, as well as some digital products.

At present, the major airlines have strict control over the purchasing of crew members.

According to Wei, director of the office of Zhejiang branch of Air China, if a large number of crew members are found to be shopping on a large scale, they will be punished by suspension.

But Wei also said that there are loopholes in supervision.

Mr. Liu, who has been engaged in luxury goods trading, told reporters that the former "Wing International" famous shop was mainly engaged in luxury shopping and leasing business, and the main shopping routes were also air hostesses and a small number of Hong Kong and Macao casinos.

Purchasing is free of charge, and the cost is counted in the price of the product.

Overseas student

Besides the stewardess, the huge overseas students group has become the main force of purchasing agents.

Andy is a Hangzhou native studying in France. Because his school is located in the center of Paris, he did not choose to work like most of the Chinese students, but aimed at the luxury purchasing business.

He told reporters that French luxury goods like LV and even the new ones are at least 30% cheaper than domestic ones.

So every year before winter and summer vacation and Christmas holidays, many people ask him to Book French luxuries such as LV.

Every time he receives a reservation, he will go to the LV store with his classmates to clean up the goods. After that, he will get rid of the outer packing of the goods. Because of his student status, if he does not declare it in a special way, he can put it in his luggage and then he can return to the country smoothly.

According to Andy, most of the bookings are regular customers, and there is no doubt about packaging.

Even if it is convenient to buy genuine packaging boxes in China, it can sell the purchasing products gracefully.

"Every time I purchase, I can earn almost 20% of the profits of the goods."

Andy said.

Take the LV handbag of 1500 euros as an example, foreign students can get 300 euros in profits, which is enough to cope with the monthly rent of an ordinary student in law. Due to the single volume of goods and no tax on their own goods, foreign students are the same as stewardess, making it possible for domestic consumers to continue to enjoy "inexpensive" overseas goods.
