The Overseas Purchase Of Luxury Goods Should Be Standardized.

A staff member of Clinique customer service department said that a bottle of 125ml special effects lotion (butter) with a price of 460 yuan is now down by more than 100 yuan. In September 1st, the price reduction of the four products was "an unofficial purchase form to deal with overseas purchasing."

In September 28th, New Zealand's Ministry of industry (MPI) and New Zealand customs also issued a statement on their official website to jointly launch actions against illegal export of infant formula.

New Zealand infant formula exported to China except for importing agents is in the scope of this crackdown, including online shopping.

The goals of these initiatives include one industry - overseas purchasing.

Due to the regional price differences and other reasons, more and more people find that purchasing Internet products for overseas products is profitable, and even makes them a career.

From the famous brand bag,

Electronic products to cosmetics, milk powder and so on, spend less money to purchase international brand names through the Internet has become a new fashion for Chinese youth consumption.

Temptation and risk coexist

Mo Daiqing, an analyst with the China Electronic Commerce Research Center, believes that the overseas purchasing market is so hot that it is inextricably linked to price differentials.

However, the risk of online purchasing is also obvious.

On the one hand, the products imported by personal mail have not been inspected by the quality inspection department, and the quality is not guaranteed. On the other hand, overseas purchasing agents, purchasing websites and consumers may face legal risks if they do not declare taxes.

In addition to the risks of customs inspection, the products purchased through purchasing channels also make consumers face the embarrassing situation of eating Coptis chinensis in the presence of quality problems.

Liu Chunquan, lawyer of Pan Yang law firm in Shanghai, said there is an irreparable risk in purchasing behavior itself.

Overseas buyers and sellers dispute, legal jurisdiction, consumer rights should be carried out overseas, China will not be held responsible.

Moreover, because of the high difficulty of investigation, the difficulty of obtaining evidence and the high cost, the rights protection is becoming more and more difficult.

Grey areas need to be "sunny"

Experts believe that in the long run, lowering tariffs and consumption tax on some products and reducing the price difference between commodities is a temporary solution.

At the same time, if we want to change and reduce the chaos in the purchasing market, we also need the corresponding regulations to be promulgated and the rules for purchasing the entry threshold.

Ma Lei, a consultant to the business solutions, suggests that the industry environment can be cleaned up through the construction of the safeguard mechanism.

For example, through banks or foreign third party payment platform and professional website cooperation, provide certain guarantee, form a number of leading enterprises in the industry coexist situation, regulatory authorities can also supervise professional leading enterprises to supervise the whole industry, clear e-commerce platform or professional purchasing website's obligation and legal responsibility in trading behavior.
