They sell differently The other day, I watched documentary that foreign companies sell differently to Korea and Japan. They intentionally upper the price, For example, Channel is two ~ three times expensive in Korea/Japan. The people working in that area claimed that it is because Asians crazy for brands' name . I did not take it serious but today I was a bit shocked that my L'OREAL brands sell in Germany and what I have is different. It was almost three times expensive than Germany. Also I checked American brands and that was four times expansive than the US. Anyway...I hope Asian customers do know what is happening,..but I think it is hard that still so many people are crazy about western brands . They go to Italy or France just for shopping after working hard. I think it is crazy to spend money like that .

I take every opportunity to go shopping when visiting the airport, because you can always purchase perfume and cosmetics at duty free prices.

yeah. but it is over the limit. Korea and US/Europe already had FTA . in that case, the tax shouldnt be so problem when comming to korea. Those western companies are just using our trend evily

Asians used to buy products from other foreign countries (US, Germany, Italy.. etc.). Reasons why once the product arrived in Asia, the price will become high and most of the time, sellers will take advantage to it..
