What is the difference between Amazon's overseas self-operated business and overseas shopping?

1. Different payment methods

For example, when shopping on Amazon in the United States, consumers currently generally pay with credit cards, as some domestic payment methods are not available; if you operate your own business overseas, it is actually equivalent to shopping on Amazon in China. Buyers can choose to pay by UnionPay, Alipay, WeChat, etc., which is relatively convenient and there are no handling fees.

2. Different delivery methods.

Amazon is responsible for sorting, shipping and delivery of self-operated and overseas Amazon products. For example, buyers of Amazon's self-operated products in the United States can also choose to ship them to China, while overseas self-operated products can only be shipped directly to China, and cannot choose other delivery methods, so it is more likely to generate taxes.

3. After-sales processing is different.

If Amazon is a self-employed business, after-sales service is usually provided by the Amazon customer service of the site. For example, if you shop on Amazon, you can directly contact the US Amazon customer service for after-sales service. Overseas self-operated after-sales service is generally handled by domestic customer service, and it will also be determined according to the actual situation. You need to pay certain taxes and fees, as well as the shipping cost of returning the goods to the foreign warehouse.

4.The prices are different.

For example, the price of Amazon products in the United States is relatively low. If it is self-operated overseas, it is actually a price reduction promotion strategy. The price of the product will also be relatively low, but it will be higher than the local price. And the variety of products is not as rich as Amazon's own products in the United States.

5. Different delivery locations.

If Amazon China is self-operated and overseas self-operated, then the two shipping locations are different. Amazon self-operated mainly ships from domestic Amazon warehouses; but overseas self-operated is shipped from overseas to China, or from bonded warehouses, not from domestic warehouses.
