5 main life hacks from the world of foreign online shopping!

Today we share the main tips that we have collected over the years of our work. The world of shopping abroad is full of pitfalls, but with us you are fully armed, because we are seasoned sea wolves :)

Life hack #1: God, this is a goldmine!

You found a very good deal on Amazon.com or Ebay.com, the price is 90% cheaper than a similar product. Already rubbing your hands and ready to give money? But don't rush. There is a high probability that this product may not be original or simply exposed by a scammer and does not bode well for you.

Ebay and Amazon are marketplaces where anyone can list goods, which is perfectly used by scammers and sellers of low-quality goods from China. What to look for and what pitfalls to look for in the next life hack .

Lifehack #2: Reviews, rating and number of sales.

The seller's rating and reviews about him are the first thing you should pay attention to. A good rating on eBay and Amazon is not less than 98% of positive transactions, which means that for 100 sales, the seller had 2 dissatisfied customers. If the percentage is lower, we advise you to avoid buying from such sellers.

The second important thing is the number of transactions themselves and the period that a particular seller is represented on the trading floor. After all, you see, making 3 successful deals, getting good reviews, and then quickly selling a few fakes is not so hard. Therefore, the age of the account is the main indicator of trust.

Life hack number 3:Secret phrases in the product description, how not to be deceived.

Remember the dogma: a photograph is nothing - a description is everything! Now let's decipher: never be fooled by the photo in the description, because. they may not match the product. Read the description carefully, check the product code, year of manufacture and everything that may matter. Found in the description "good quality", "excellent quality" - urgently close this lot, the product is not original, but a fake. If the product is original, the seller will write "100% authentic" or "origin", and will not convince you of the good quality of their product :)

Lifehack #4:SALE SALE SALE! How not to miss the time of discounts and sales.

Do you know what is the difference between sales in Ukraine and the USA?

Lifehack #5: What to buy to save money.

You always face a choice: buy in a regular store or order a package from abroad. Here, without explanation, it is clear, I want to buy and immediately use / wear / show off a new thing. But don't forget the price. Is it worth 2 weeks of waiting for 70% of the value of the goods? Our advice is: buy wisely.

Compare prices before buying and count the money saved. How to do it? Choose a product in Ukraine, find it in any of the online stores in the USA or Europe, send it to us, in an hour you will receive a calculation of its cost and count how much money is left for the next purchase.
