Do they rip me off if  look like a beginner?

First of all, based on Namdaemun Wholesale Store, The wholesalers don't rip the beginners off or sell beginners expensive one

 

I saw a comment on my blog

 

"I think I bought the product for 5,000 won…"

"Most of them say 3000-3500 won...I think I got ripped off."*

 

There was a person who wrote this.

 

First of all, there is no atmosphere in Namdaemun where you are ripped off as a beginner. Because buyer can revisit after the first deal. If they sell it at a different price, it will be revealed later. 

Also, it is not an environment where you can get ripped off because you can see the price level even if you go around the wholesale store a little bit with similar design and materials.

 

In addition, there are many cases where the president is directly in the wholesale store, but there are many cases where only the employee is present. There is no reason to rip off the other person on their own, 

And if the employee sets the supply price on their own, it can cause problems if they settle sales later or lead to regular transactions later, so there is no reason to rip off.

 

You have to know this part here. Just because the design is similar doesn't mean the price is similar. T

his is because although the design is similar to the general public, the types of plating (nickel, any nickel, electroplating, coding), the thickness of plating, and the types of saliva (general needle, silver needle, surgical). stainless), the quality of the stone (swarovski, Czech stone, gemstone...), the way the stone works (biting, bonding) and the structure of the product (does it take a lot of work? How many times did you tinker? Chain cutting? 

Even if it looks similar depending on the manufacturing method and process... The cost difference can be several times different.

 

So I just bought it for 5,000 won, but I can't think of a similar design over there as being ripped off for 4,000 won. 

For example, simple ring earrings...There are 500 won to 3000 won at Namdaemun. Imported from China is 500 won, nickel plating is around 1000 won, Nickel Free plating is 1000~1500 won, Nickel Free + silver needle is 2,000 won, etc. 

 

First of all, They rarely rip off a beginner just even though you're going to Namdaemun for the first time. 

Sometimes some people bought 5pcs earrings and said "I was ripped off". But it was the case that people bought one per design. If you bought 5pcs for total amount, the wholesaler can think of it as a retail transaction. They asked you pay like normal retail transaction.

Originally, someone visited the store for the first time at Namdaemun Accessory Shopping Center, but if you want to buy only one for each design, they rarely deal with you.

Sometimes the wholesaler just sells it at a retail price. It's not a rip-off, it's just an exceptional case of retail sales by a wholesaler.

 

It's your first time visiting Namdaemun market as a retailer, so they might try to rip you off, but I've been to Namdaemun for more than six years, I've never personally experienced that. 

Even if it's your first time buying at Namdaemun market, it's obvious that you're a beginner.

 

The wholesale price is the same whether you're a beginner or a regular, so don't worry.
