Save money by buying cheap things online from China

Postby MysticMoons » 16 Oct 2022, 02:01

SSo people were telling me you can get gold chains and other things very cheap if you order direct from China. Ssome as low as one dollar or just 50 cents! I had also heard people buy a lot of things cheap over seas then sell it for way more online, and then they earn a lot

I have already bought some things directly from China, through Aliexpress site but I know there are others. I have found some very cheap things that I buy for myself or as a gift but I know some people buy in bulk to resell the items here and earn money.

Ok, Buy in bulk, drain Chinese sites out of products, then resell them on profit.
But I don't trust chinese products, and they not not much cheap here.

Reselling is a great way to make money, but you have to consider the quality of the items. You can buy gold chains for $1 in China, but it's not real gold. If you resell that necklace as a real gold necklace, people will accuse you of scamming them and it can hurt your business. It seems easy to simply buy things from China and resell for a profit, but honestly, it's not that easy. To get a profit, you'll need to have a huge customer base and you also have to make sure the items you're buying will sell.

If you're simply buying an item from China to save money (and not for reselling for profit purposes), then go for it. It is a good way to save money if you don't mind getting items that are slightly lower quality.

As long as you don't mind having to replace everything that breaks all the time.

Cheap things in cheap product will break every time.
But then this is not saving, a real sawing when a product lasts longer.

I know a lot of people buying full containers of phone accessories and electrical gadgets from China and reselling them at a huge profit in my country.

Phone accessories is a great niche to invest in, if we buy a cover or anything else and check where was it made we can confirm that is everything made in China, so why not start the business for ourselves?!

We all know that China wants to control Taiwan and when we buy things from China we could be making its economy better but if you check everything you buy in your own country many things came from China.

Some things are unavoidable but I prevent them as much as I can for the sake of Taiwan.

I agree, but it will also depend on what product it is. 10 cheap handbags for $1 each may last longer than 1 handbag that's $100. We just have to be smart shoppers and know how to avoid the bad quality items.

It's true that a lot of products made in China are cheap. But they may not be durable and there are lots of fake products.

I don't even believe that assertion that Chinese products are not durable. Take a look at Chinese branded phones like Huawei and OPPO.

Yes i have heard about this before, most people who are into drop shipping or mini importation usually buy their things from china cause according to them, it is a lot cheaper to get it from china. There are even companies who go to china to do their productions cause they can easily get the raw materials at a cheaper rate over there.
