Yesterday, a friend told about a recent incident.
Because he was preparing for the New Year, his friend planned to reward himself with an H brand bag.
It's a girl, of course, I understand it.
After all, after a hard year, I still want to give myself a little reward and reward myself for this year's hard work.
However, the bag is out of stock for the time being, and my friend is still a little sad.
I thought I could take advantage of the New Year's time to have the opportunity to memorize it a few more times.
So I thought about going to ** for help and seeing if I could buy it.
It also lived up to expectations and found a seller, who said that he happened to have one on hand, and it was cheaper.
Naturally, my friend was overjoyed, and agreed as soon as his brain was hot.
After the transfer passed, my friend also received the package quickly.
But as soon as I got my hands on it, I felt that something was wrong, and the texture of this bag was obviously different from what I imagined.
The color and texture of some parts are also different from those shown on the official website.
So, my friend went to look for ** and wanted to ask what the reason was?
Unexpectedly, when the message was sent, a small red dot was displayed.
Not surprisingly, this is blocked, and it seems that there must be something wrong with this bag.
I still feel a little unbelievable when I think I was deceived by such an obvious **.
I can only tell myself that I have a memory for growth, and the obvious fake** is not recognized.
When my friend told about it, his mood was quite stable, and he didn't seem to be affected by this incident, which was good.
In this way, it is not uncommon to sell counterfeit goods in the market.
It can also be seen often in the white tea market, and some people may think, "Fakes are also tea, they are all tea, is there any difference?" ”
The difference between this is great, don't think that there is no problem if it is all tea.
Is there really no problem with those white teas that are too low priced and want to rely on low prices to attract consumers?
The answer, of course, is no.
In terms of quality, it is definitely not as good as normal white tea.
After all, to be able to reflect the cost, the lower the cost, the less it will cost.
Regarding white tea, there are high and low ** on the market.
The relatively high ** is basically thousands of pounds.
And relatively low, you can often see dozens of free shipping.
Some people always feel that the ** of white tea is fried.
But is that really the case?
At a time when white tea was not so popular, it was indeed not high.
Even if there are fewer people who buy it, it is still in line with the market at that time.
In recent years, after the improvement of people's living standards, prices are also year by year.
In daily life, anyone who has left a consumption record can clearly feel that consumption in all aspects is increasing year by year.
And white tea, in the production process, is closely related to human beings.
With the rise of labor force, labor costs are also increasing year by year.
The quality of tea raw materials is increasing year by year, so the finished white tea will naturally increase.
This is also one of the reasons why white tea has gradually become more and more gradual in recent years.
In addition, white tea has become more popular, and in terms of **, it is natural that the price will increase.
This is a normal phenomenon, just like masks in special periods, after the demand increases, it will definitely be manifested in terms of **.
What's more, the better the quality of white tea, the higher the quality, the higher the quality.
Take organic white tea, for example.
The location of an organic tea garden needs to meet the standards, and not just any piece of land can become a tea garden.
In the growth process of organic tea trees, all aspects of tea plant growth need to be tested.
Tea pest problems, irrigation problems, and so on, all require investment to ensure that they meet organic standards.
There are also all aspects of the tea growing and picking process, which are taken care of by workers.
After ensuring that the organic white tea meets the standards, there will be a special organic certificate.
Why are some white teas so expensive? Because the cost is higher.
The same is true for wilderness white tea, although the growth of wilderness tea trees does not require workers to take care of it, but the difficulty of picking is very high.
Picking wilderness white tea takes more time and effort, and the amount of picking is also small.
Moreover, wilderness white tea is scarce enough, so it will be higher.
So,Why is the ** of some white teas very low?
Naturally, because of the low cost.
Just imagine, if you are a tea shopkeeper, the cost of your own tea is very high, the quality is also very good, and the demand is not low.
Would you be willing to sell it at a low price?
I'm sure you won't, at least it should be priced according to the market price.
And those white teas that are very low, naturally because of low cost and lack of quality, need to give enough advantages in terms of quality in order to attract consumers to buy.
The low cost is undoubtedly the low cost of raw materials.
A tea leaf picked from a roadside tea tree is disturbed by roadside car exhaust and human activities all year round, and the quality is lacking.
Naturally, the cost is much less than that of the alpine tea plantation.
Or the tea leaves are picked from the tea trees in the summer, because the weather is too hot, the inner quality of the tea leaves is easy to decompose.
There are not many nutrients stored in this kind of tea, and the natural cost is very low.
As long as it is processed slightly, it can be made into a finished tea, which can then be sold out.
Even if it is a low price**, as long as there are consumers to buy, then the merchant is profitable.
The more people buy, the more profit the merchant makes.
Of course, it is also possible to make this part of the tea old into old white tea.
Compared with ordinary white tea, old white tea is more popular with consumers.
Turning tea leaves into old white tea can attract more consumers to pay IQ tax, so why not?
February** Dynamic Incentive Program
When buying a product, you need to always keep in mind that "cheap is not good".
Especially when buying white tea, it is more important to pay attention to the fact that every year, many consumers are attracted by low prices, and then find themselves deceived.
Don't easily believe the "clearance sale" and "low-price leakage" in the mouth of merchants.
This is just the ** that attracts you to buy, how can there be so many times to pick up the leak.
It is precisely because every year that there are always people who believe that they are favored by God and feel that they cannot be deceived.
Therefore, there are not a few people who are deceived every year, and they suddenly realize it afterwards, but by then it is too late.
I can only remind myself not to be greedy for small gains next time.
There are always people who feel that the ** of white tea is inflated now, and only those low-priced white tea are normal merchants.
If so, it is recommended to drink tea first, drink tea to see the real chapter, and see which white tea is really good.
It's not easy to be original, if you think this article is helpful to you, please give it a thumbs up.
