The Business Of Clothing Wholesale Stall Owners In Beijing Is Not Good

Zoos and Xidan sell things at "no price"? you 're right. Influenced by the shortage of staff and the difficulty of doing business, the reporter found that various "Buy It Now" handwritten price tags have become a new scene in many wholesale and retail markets recently.

"30 yuan each, not worth the price", such a prompt was written on a palm sized square note. Yesterday, the reporter saw on the fourth floor of Xidan Pearl that this was not a commercial slogan, but a "price tag" made by the stall owner for the bags he sold.

The reporter noticed that such handwritten price tags were hung on every row of shelves in the booth, and on 40 or 50 display bags, such small pieces of paper were floating on almost every one. "It's the price on the price tag, not the price," said a clerk who was greeting the customer to the customer who asked for the price.

Not only this merchant, the reporter noticed that many merchants selling bags and trinkets in this market and the new generation around Xidan, Huawei and other markets used this "price tag" method.

Xidan is not the only one who loves pasting price tags. The fashion trend of "Buy It Now" has also become popular in the clothing wholesale markets of the zoo New Century, Century Tianle, Tianle Palace, etc., where young people like to shop most.

"The main reason is that there are not enough people to get busy." Miss Wang, who sells bags, told reporters that the bags in the store are all marked with consumers' "psychological price". Although this relative low price has cost her some profits, it has saved a lot of bargaining time with consumers. Saving the time of pricing is equivalent to saving manpower in disguised form.

The reporter learned that shopping guides have become a hot "talent" in zoos, Xidan and other markets. Not only did merchants advertise for job guides, but also some people offered a high salary of 5000 yuan per month. Even so, there are still many merchants who are difficult to find suitable shopping guides.

In addition, consumers are becoming more and more tight handed, and they are careful when shopping, which also makes it more and more difficult for businesses to raise prices. "The price of online stores and forums is lower, which makes our business difficult."

The stall owner who sells clothes in the zoo's Tianle Palace said that he would simply lower the selling price to the lowest. "I'm not used to not pricing in the wholesale market," said Miss Yu, who often buys things in the zoo, Xidan and other markets. But the price of 15 yuan for short sleeved T-shirts and 50 yuan for patent leather bags is really cheap.

Many interviewees said that if every merchant could set the price very honestly, it would really save them from haggling.
