However, in the early May, the times weekly reporter visited several foreign trade in Guangzhou. clothing The wholesale market found that the brand names of the foreign trade clothing brands that flaunt the "original single quality" are mixed, the price varies, and the minimum can be up to 3 yuan. These "original single" and "tail goods" can be turned over by ten times after being processed by the merchants themselves.

"Foreign trade is just a gimmick, and the real original list can not be that many." People in the clothing industry revealed that the original original cargo only had 2 to 3 pieces, or even one, not more than 5 pieces. Many famous international brands have not yet entered the market in the form of "single tail cargo". They destroy products that are not qualified when they trade.

With the in-depth investigation, reporters also found that "original single quality" small ticket, invoice fraud has become the norm in the industry. Many shopping websites even sell small ticket printers at low prices, and businesses can design and print invoices for small bills on their own.

On the other hand, all kinds of counterfeit "super goods" replace the "original single tail goods" to sing the leading role. Many manufacturers and businesses have authorized the mass production of "original single" clothing and famous brand without the authorization of trademark owners. shoes Leather goods, glasses and so on, and sell to all parts of the country through wholesalers and agents.

The wholesale price of the original garment is as low as 3 yuan.

Located in Guangzhou Railway Station and its surrounding areas, the wholesale market business circle is Guangzhou's larger foreign trade clothing wholesale and distribution center. There are nearly 100 wholesale and retail markets, including 20 large wholesale clothing cities.

The reporter walked into the international fashion city, known as the Korean version of the original single dress, found that almost every store on the first floor was wholesale and retail under the banner of "Korea original single" and "original single foreign trade". Among them, there were many famous Korean brands such as Cherrykoko, Qnigril and W.Dress.Room.

"The wholesale price of the original wholesale clothing is more than 200. When you retail, you can double or even double the price. Compared with the nearby Tianma wholesale market, our clothing styles and brands are very competitive. When asked if the shirt was not processed, the shopkeeper said, "we usually don't cut it so that the customer can cut it himself."

The reporter then came to the Tianma fashion wholesale center. Compared with the original wholesale shops of foreign trade, the Tianma fashion wholesale center has only a few scattered shops labeled "trade marks".

Reporters observed that the clothes of these stores were mostly small brands of foreign countries, and some of them were not even OEM. Among them, the wholesale price of brand original single women's clothing is only 25 to 50 yuan.

"The original quality of Guangzhou is better and the price is fair." A wholesaler told reporters that the wholesale price of the original garments was low in many places, but the quality was poor, so they could not sell at high prices, and they could only sell on Taobao. The "Guangzhou goods" can sell high prices in the market because of its new style, relatively good workmanship and fabric. Therefore, many store customers come from the north to pick up the goods. During the peak season, tens of thousands of pieces are sold every month.

After the reporter showed that he had received the goods, the wholesaler sent a sample plan of the original single product. Among them, the wholesale price of the original single clothing is better than 20 yuan, and the wholesale price of the original style is only 3 yuan.

"The wholesale market's original list is fake, and the real original order needs a way to get it." One industry insider told reporters that many famous brands were very strict in the production of the "three standard" products. When the goods were taken, the remaining samples were collected together, and some "defective products" were destroyed. In contrast, some small brands abroad are relatively lax in regulation, and there may be a few remaining ones.

Counterfeit products mixed into brand discount stores

"Now the brand discount shop, the original single store and the original single purchase are basically the imitation, the small ticket and invoice that they provide can also be done for you." A brand original supplier introduced to reporters.

It is understood that the supply team in the name of the company directly to the factory to receive goods, specifically for network sales agents. Its main brands include women's wear, fashion leather women's shoes, brand shoes and high-end glasses. According to their products, they specialize in opening several different WeChat accounts, and release new products and maintain customer groups through WeChat.

Reporters read through two WeChat accounts and found that new bran, Nike, Adidas, Zara and other well-known brand clothing and shoes were in the list.

The supplier also revealed to reporters that due to the ample supply of goods, most of the famous brand discount stores such as new brun and Nike on the market in Guangzhou are getting goods with their teams. A pair of new hundred shoes that flaunt the original order, the wholesale price of the new imitation is only 150 yuan. Such products move to the counter of the shopping mall, the selling price is as high as 1499 yuan. Sell again at seventy percent off and get double profits.

"Our original single garments are all three standard complete products. They also attach small bills and invoices, and support inspection at any time." The supplier said.

Reporters on the Internet search for "small ticket" found that all kinds of brand small ticket full of eyes, in addition to the mainland brand small ticket, Hongkong purchasing, overseas purchasing and other small ticket can also fight.

A Alibaba owner provides a small ticket model for the Nike brand to the reporters. The name, address, telephone, purchase commodity, price, actual receipt, and change of the store name are all complete, even the salesperson's name and counter number.

"The shopping mall and the price on the small ticket can let you decide that such a small ticket only costs 4 cents." The seller told reporters that as long as the customer service personnel clearly stated, what brand of small ticket they can make. Or provide samples directly from the seller, they will play the same way and customize the small ticket for the customers.

"Now many shopping malls are printed invoice couplet, ordinary list type small ticket credentials are too easy to imitate, no longer have legal effect." The head of a shopping mall in Guangzhou said there were two chapters on the invoices used in the shopping mall, one is the tax administration chapter, the other is the invoice special seal. There are two codes, one is the invoice number and the other is the invoice code. Consumers can log on to the IRS or the local tax bureau website and enter two numbers to identify the true and false of the small ticket and the business name of the small ticket. In addition, the small ticket also has fiber security.

It is worth mentioning that many shopping websites are now selling all kinds of small ticket printers, and the price is as low as 100 yuan. This printer supports small ticket printing, Logo printing, bar code printing, web page printing, Word typesetting, and UnionPay card printing. The templates can be edited and printed by Word. Tianhe City Department Store's PUMA clothing, NIKE clothing and KFC receipts can be printed on their own.

No authorized Book forged "genuine" clothing in bulk.

After investigating a garment factory in Quanzhou, Fujian, a reporter found that the factory covering 5000 square meters, with 100 employees and more than 200 machines, can make ten thousand brand tops in half a month. Its main business includes Adidas, Nike, Anta and other famous brands.

These brands are sold wholesale through distributors to all parts of the country, or enter the original single foreign trade stores, brand discount stores, or become the genuine products of the major Taobao shopkeepers and purchasing merchants, which sell at a price several times higher than the cost price and lower than the genuine quality of the counters.

"No authorization is required for processing brand garments. Many businesses of Taobao and Tmall are getting goods with us. There is almost no difference between the brand clothing and the genuine products. Relevant person in charge of the factory told reporters that according to the difference of processed fabrics and accessories, the average T-shirt costs a few yuan to 20 yuan, a high imitation of more than 30 yuan, and imitates more than 40 yuan.

It is understood that the factory has been operating for more than ten years, and the factory staff have rich experience in the industry. As long as customers provide samples of clothing, you can find out the same or similar materials and accessories, do it according to the 1:1 way, and spend one or two yuan to add imitation brand labels and tag, a fake brand original costume is born.

"Now many brands are very strict, and there is no market for famous brands." An industry insider told reporters that "foreign trade original list" is actually the factory to receive the brand foreign trade list after making the "three standard" and the tag, do some more, and then secretly make clothes from the planned scrap materials. Or the manufacturer will specify the customer himself. cloth The supplier takes the goods to make exactly the same original goods as the genuine ones.

The "three mark" of clothing refers to the qualification certificate, the washing label and the main label. The three standard certification must be provided for the normally qualified products. clothes Qualified. It contains all the important information of the fabric itself, size, safety standards, washing methods, producing areas and so on.

"There is a license to sell fake products on the Internet. Basically, manufacturers and agents do not sell the official brand authorization. The industry revealed.

According to the press survey, many factories do not require customers to issue "brand authorization" when making clothing customization or OEM. Some businessmen even seek benefits through agency and transfer of counterfeit brand authorization.

"It is illegal to carry out processing and production without authorization from the trademark owner." Li Xinli, a lawyer in Beijing Dacheng (Shanghai) law firm and a well-known foreign trade lawyer, believes that the act of processing production without authorization from the trademark owner violates the relevant provisions of the existing trademark law. When such illegal production reaches a certain sales scale, it will also be disposed of by the criminal law. In addition, wholesalers resale the products to the retail stage and seek profits from them. This is also a violation of the above laws and the unfair competition act. {page_break}

　 The cost is as low as two yuan, and has not been sterilized into the market.

"The old clothes that are eliminated will be sold at a low price, like junk, after being recovered by the recycling companies in Japan and Korea. There are containers all over the year. Mr. Chen, who is engaged in the clothing business in Shijie Town, Lufeng City, Guangdong, describes the prosperous business to reporters. "Old clothes, a minimum of two or three yuan, usually do not have to be sterilized. If you want, you can do the processing, remove the balls and iron each piece and add 5 cents to each item."

If it is not for the eyes of the consumers, consumers can hardly imagine that the "foreign trade goods" that they have bought from the street shops or network platforms may be "secondhand goods" which have gone to the ocean but have not been sterilized.

In recent years, it is rampant for criminals to smuggle "foreign garbage". From Japan, Japan, Europe and the United States and other overseas areas to take over the old clothes abandoned, in the name of "foreign trade original", "genuine counters", "orphan clothing" name change, it can openly flow into the market, sold everywhere. Because of its fashionable style, low price, and mostly solitary products, it is not easy to "bump into shirts". These fake masks are even sought after by consumers.

However, the "old foreign goods", which smuggled into the country to be refurbished and sold, has complex sources, and there are many goods such as children's clothing. Due to the fact that it has escaped the inspection of the customs, and has not been professionally sterilized, it is very likely that there are substances such as bacteria, viruses and so on, which will be a great danger to consumers, especially the health and safety of the old, the young, the women and the children.

　 Smuggling old Japanese and Korean clothing to two yuan each

In recent years, the products under the banner of foreign trade clothing seem to be especially in line with the appetite of young people. Mr. Chen, who runs garments in Shijie town of Lufeng City, Guangdong, told reporters that with the popularity of Korean dramas and Hanxing culture, young people nowadays especially like the style of "Japan and Korea," which is fashionable and unique. The European and American wind is not very good in Guangdong because its own model is quite large.

Last year, in order to attack sales volume, Mr. Chen also started online shop and summed up his experience: "as long as we sell the word" Japanese and Korean sourcing "and" just one thing "on the Internet, sales will generally be very high.

However, Mr. Chen seems reluctant to mention words such as "old clothes", "foreign garbage" and "smuggling". In recent years, smuggled old clothes have been sold as new clothes to all parts of the country without being processed. "Foreign garbage" has become the object of severe attack by the State Customs Department. Once discovered, it will be destroyed immediately.

Mr. Chen told reporters that he had been running clothing business in Jieshi district for many years and had his own stalls and warehouses. "Our products are mostly Korean and Japanese goods, mainly in autumn and winter clothing, mainly sweaters, down garments, fur coats and so on. Of course, there are also big brands such as Burberry and LV."

According to Mr. Chen, his warehouse is very large, and all kinds of clothes are arranged in different categories. "But basically all styles and codes are only one." This is because these garments are secondhand goods from overseas. Therefore, the size and number of garments can never be complete.

"The goods are also divided into good and bad ones. The better ones are goods in stock, ranging from five or six yuan to more than 10 yuan per piece. If they are second-hand goods, they will be cheaper. The lowest is two or three yuan, and twelve yuan or three yuan more. If it's down, it's about fifty yuan. "

Mr. Chen told reporters excitedly to reporters: "my goods are generally sold to Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Shantou and other places, these clothes are very good in the market to sell, one can sell dozens of pieces or even two hundred or three hundred yuan, the boss to wholesale, change hands can earn at least several times!"

According to Mr. Chen's introduction, the sales volume of the old clothes can be up to several million yuan a year. According to people familiar with the matter, there are only 10000 merchants in the area of Jieshi, who are engaged in refurbishment of second-hand clothing business, with a total sales volume of at least one hundred million pieces per year. Where do all these old clothes come from?

Referring to the source of goods, Mr. Chen told reporters: "the old clothes that are eliminated will be sold at a low price, like junk, after being recovered by the recycling companies in Japan and South Korea. There are containers all over the year.

According to media reports, in April last year, the customs of Nanhai customs of Guangzhou customs even searched 2 batches of old clothes without legal origin, totaling 230 tons. Customs as a clue, found a "Vietnam Guangxi Guangdong" smuggling smuggling of old clothing industry chain.

After investigation, illegal traders bought old clothes from South Korea through an import and export trading company in Guangzhou, then shipped them to Vietnam's Mango Street through a foreign trade company in Vietnam, and smuggled the gang to smuggle the old clothes from the border between China and Vietnam to smuggle into Guangxi, and then organize large trucks to land in Guangdong and the South China Sea by land. Finally, they were transported to Guangdong, Jieshi and other places.

After these old clothes were transported to Jieshi Town, after sorting, washing, ironing and packaging of household small workshops, the relatively clean old clothes went into the domestic market through illegal traders' hands and sold them directly to consumers. Some broken clothes were sold out to some illegal manufacturers, and buttons and zippers were sold to the waste recycling enterprises.

Guangzhou customs staff explained to reporters that "foreign garbage" was explicitly prohibited from importation. However, there was a lot of loopholes to make profits in order to make profits.

"The first thing is to bypass the customs and smuggle the sea ashore without customs barriers. Secondly, it is through false reporting of commodity names, and by hiding smuggled goods in the possession of illegal goods in other goods, and the customs inspection container inspection rate is generally 7%.

"Garbage clothes" put on the body without disinfection.

Reporters login online search, renovation and sale of second-hand clothing supplier information is not uncommon. Refurbished second-hand children's clothing is fashionable and colorful, but it costs less than ten yuan per piece.

Mr. Chen told reporters that the old clothes used for a minimum of two or three yuan, usually do not have to sterilize. "These are bundled and packaged, and the quantity is too large. If they are sterilized, it will be too much trouble. There is no need at all. But if the guests need it, we also have special processing workers. We can go to the two simple processes of hair ball and scalding. Each piece adds 5 cents to each item. The finished clothes look very new. In addition, if the guest is not taken by the batch, he or she needs to pick the goods on its own, and add two to three yuan each. "

Experts pointed out that these smuggled abroad, may carry a large number of bacteria "garbage clothes", as a new clothing sold throughout the country, as early as the late 1980s and early 90s has already appeared. The clothes used above contain a variety of human metabolites, especially E. coli, sweat, blood, feces, vomit and secretions.

According to Mr. Chen's introduction, these old clothes are recycled through the recycle bin and waste products. In fact, they are equivalent to "waste products" abroad, and the hygienic conditions are rather bad. In addition, these old clothes in the transportation process, because there is no relevant safeguards, it is also easy to be infected with bird droppings and other substances. And because of smuggling and entry, evaded the inspection of Customs diseases, there may be unclear virus and epidemic situation, and security risks are unthinkable.

Dongguan Spin Pan Rihui, Secretary General of the clothing association, told reporters that because of the complexity of the source, "foreign garbage" is very harmful. If the original owner suffers from disease, it is very likely that the bacteria will be transmitted, and those who are less resistant to the elderly and children will be more dangerous.

Low net sales of foreign trade are mostly cottage goods.

According to the press survey, many online clothing stores like to use foreign trade as a gimmick. There are many famous brands such as Nike and Only. The prices are very cheap. Most of them are one or seventy percent off of the genuine products, but there are hundreds of thousands of them.

In fact, large brands abroad usually provide fabric and plate type, and then look for OEM manufacturers in China. If the product is qualified, it will naturally become a genuine product in the exclusive store. The "foreign trade order" refers to the stealthily processed garment made by the manufacturer from the planned scrap materials. The difference between it and the "genuine goods" is that it is not in the original order plan.

Miss Wang, who runs the clothing business in Shantou, told reporters that there were many foreign trade documents in the market before or after the end of the bill. This is because foreign brands provide more raw materials, and at the same time check the processing flow of the manufacturers. But in recent years, both the original list and the final invoice are very rare, because foreign brands control and check the products more and more strictly. The templates and raw materials are almost precisely provided, and the processing and transportation process is also strictly controlled. As a result, the possibility of large quantities of original goods and even defective products in the market is almost gone.

A merchandiser of a shoe factory in Dongguan told reporters that the factory manufactures shoes for the US brand Calvin Klein, while the product OEM has a certain rate of attrition. A shipment of up to two or three pairs is the original original. According to the provisions of the agreement, the original single products of such international brands must be pressed for two or three years before they can be sold, and they must not be allowed to flow into the market.

"Therefore, for regular brands, most of the so-called" foreign trade orders "and" final orders "of large quantities and low discounts on the market are mostly counterfeit products. It may also be a high imitation of the foundries, or even a cottage product of a small factory. Consumers must identify their eyes. "
