Overseas Travellers Need To Think Twice Before Making Lists.

Before returning home, Zhang Yuan was most worried about bringing gifts to all his friends and relatives. Everyone takes notes on books and purchases them in stores. He decided to buy a watch for his mother, a watch chain store in the mall, Goldsmiths, a watch chain store in the UK, and OMEGA, radar and Rolex were displayed in front of the shop window.

Zhang Yuan made an appointment with two female friends to help select the watch for women. He made a small circle in the shop, and he selected a OMEGA kkim watch. The salesman will use the flannel tray. Wrist Watch He put it on the big wooden table on the glass surface and asked Zhang Yuan to sit down and compare it with his friends. What Zhang Yuan did not expect was that there was an activity in the shop at the time, without asking, the clerk directly hit a relatively low discount. After completing the purchase, get the tax refund form, so that you can refund the airport at the time of returning home.

Zhang Yuan remembered that the price of buying a watch at that time was more than 1000 pounds, equivalent to more than 10000 yuan. After returning home, he once went shopping to see the same watch, the price tag was more than 20000, "the difference is about 50%."

It is not a secret that there is a big price difference between overseas and domestic purchase tables. This difference is not only derived from the difference of pricing, but also involves tax rebate and exchange rate changes.

　　 Britain has the highest tax rebate rate.

When traveling abroad, goods purchased can be refunded when they leave the country. This tax means value-added tax, and the value-added tax rates vary from country to country. The higher the VAT, the higher the tax rebate. But the tax rebate is not to refund all VAT, but to deduct a certain fee.

Wu Xiao spent two weeks in England. Before returning home, she planned to buy a Rolex watch. I wanted to buy a watch directly from the duty-free shop at the airport after the security check, but because I wasn't sure whether there was a Rolex store in the airport, she finally bought a watch in London and opened a tax refund form to the airport for tax rebate.

I was surprised when I got to the airport. The procedures for tax rebate are not complicated. There are not many people in this row. When the stamp is sealed, the customs will inspect the merchandise and ask for passport and visa. If the purchased goods have been sent to the consignment, the principle of Shanghai customs will not be stamped again, and the tax rebate will not be completed. But Wu Xiao's friends have checked their purchases in their own suitcases and can't take them out to the customs. She explained the customs to the customs with her friends, and the customs also gave up the tax rebate bill. But in the end, warn them only once.

After the chapter, all we have to do is to line up and get the money. In general, a tax refund form with a stamp can be used to get cash directly at the airport. The fact is that queuing for an hour often happens because there are too many people queuing up for cash. Wu Xiao encountered such a situation, the team is not only long and slow moving. Seeing that the boarding time is getting closer and closer, she hears the radio announcers, if the time travellers can fill in a list and leave their credit card number, then they will "return" the amount of tax back to the credit card.

Wu Xiao hurriedly filled out the list and put it into a mailbox. A few weeks after returning home, the amount of tax rebate received on the credit card was about 15% of the purchase amount.

　　 Swiss Watch Most complete

Switzerland is the first consideration for many people when buying watches. Tian Xiaolin and his friends took part in a European tour group. After arriving in Switzerland, the whole group were eager to buy watches.

Tian Xiaolin did not have rich experience in purchasing watches. She was not sure whether it would be cheaper to buy watches in Switzerland compared with other European countries, but at that time, people in the group thought that buying a watch in the country of origin would be cheaper. Tian Xiaolin remembered that when he looked at the watch in Switzerland, the most impressive thing was that the shop was large in scale and full in form. Whether it is new, many years ago, old models, calendar, tourbillon, all kinds of complex function shop can provide stock.

In Switzerland, if you don't buy a watch, you can also change your watch or other parts in the local watch shop. This process is enjoyed by Swiss Swiss workers in the pure Swiss process. According to the regulations of Rolex, the watchband or dial can be officially changed. If parts are replaced outside Switzerland, accessories may not come from Swiss origin, and it is even less likely to enjoy Swiss workmanship.

　　 Longines Price difference at home and abroad exceeds 10000 yuan

Although the price of watches is almost the same, the price difference between Europe and China is more obvious.

Goldsmiths is the largest watch dealer in the UK, with almost all chains in every British city. This year, Longines's new retail sales price of Goldsmiths is 2080 pounds, or about 22000 yuan. In China, the national uniform price of this watch is 34800 yuan. The price difference of the same watch is 12000 yuan.

However, the difference between ordinary funds is relatively small. The basic price of the Longines Keran series is priced at 7700 yuan in the domestic market, while the price of Goldsmiths is 610 pounds, equivalent to about 6480 yuan, and the difference between the domestic and foreign countries is about 1200 yuan.

In the Shenzhen Longines's direct store, the salesperson told the financial weekly newspaper reporter that they are the only direct store in Shenzhen. All the prices are unified pricing nationwide. There is no promotion at present, but all the tables can be paid 8% off.

The new posters of the Dai Zhuo Weiner are hung on the walls of the battalion store. The salesmen can find the pricing, but there is no spot in the store. "Now there is no such watch in the country. This is the new model at the beginning of the year. It is possible that goods will be available at the end of the year. " Related staff told financial weekly newspaper reporters, they usually the new year's beginning will not be released until the end of the year.

In addition to the major brands set up in China's Direct stores, chain distributors are another major force in sales. Hengili marketing staff told financial weekly newspaper reporter that Hengili also opened a duty-free shop in Shenzhen, "but the duty free shop is not as good as the chain stores."
