It's cheaper because the rent is cheaper. Just need a simple warehouse in the middle of nowhere. Need less staff - mainly people to pick orders and pack boxes.
Come to think of it, China could be a super powerhouse if it went into the international market with on-line shopping.
Currently people in western countries are getting a raw deal because both China and India have Ebay, but westerners really can't buy from them because China & India don't accept PayPal, Ebay's auction payment service. They both HAVE Paypal, but American Paypal is only set up to make payments to the U.S., Canada, Australia and western European countries. Can you smell American protectionism? It's not fair! |
