I don't object to many excellent E-liquids in foreign countries, but I think that the poor quality of domestic E-liquids is too biased. As far as the current E-liquid market is concerned, the price of imported E-liquid is twice as high as that of domestic E-liquid. Most of the 60-liter E-liquid is sold for more than 100 yuan, and domestic E-liquid is generally Within 50 yuan, such a high price difference, is the imported E-liquid worth the money?
Why is there such a big price difference? Is the price of imported E-liquid not so high? The price/performance ratio of imported E-liquid is quite high. In fact, the E-liquid market has been confusing for a long time, which makes many vape novices feel very confused. Let's talk about these scenes briefly, so that everyone has a general understanding of imported E-liquid.
First of all, we have to figure out why there is such a big price difference between the physical store and the B2C platform.
We must know that imported E-liquids sold in China are basically imported from abroad in small quantities, and even belong to the scope of purchasing. From the E-liquid brand sold by B2C in the United States, the price of 60MLE-liquid is about 67-180 yuan, and we choose the lowest 67 yuan as a reference. At present, China's import E-liquid tax rate is 16%, 67 yuan E-liquid tax is about 10 yuan, if we do not consider transportation, business profits, the basic cost of the cheapest imported E-liquid is as high as 77 yuan. Therefore, 60ML imported E-liquid below 50 yuan can be judged as counterfeit products, but the Internet is full of such products, it can be seen that the risk of purchasing imported E-liquid is quite high.
So what is the price of genuine imported E-liquid? Is it worth the money? From the perspective of the domestic B2C platform, the relatively reliable imported E-liquid, the price of 60ML basically exceeds 120 yuan.
Compared with domestic E-liquid, the price of imported E-liquid is twice that of domestic E-liquid. The price of imported E-liquid is comparable to other imported products, such as imported office consumables. Their prices are also roughly domestic prices. 2 times, so the price of imported E-liquid is also within the normal range.
At present, the nicotine content of imported E-liquids sold in China is mostly 3MG. Every day, one pack of smokers uses 6ML of E-liquid (except high-power electronic cigarettes, small smoke) and imports E-liquid. The daily value of the cost is about RMB 12, and the domestic E-liquid is about RMB 6 per day.
It can be seen that the daily cost of imported E-liquid is basically the same as the cost of a pack of cigarettes. From the perspective of the cost of replacing cigarettes, vapes do not play a cost-saving role. Therefore, individuals believe that the cost-effectiveness of imported E-liquid is not high. Products, imported E-liquid does not bring cost benefits to smokers, for the smokers, imported E-liquid does not have cost performance.
In fact, many foreign brands of E-liquid are also made in China. Even if they are made in foreign countries, the flavors, VG, PG and nicotine they use may be basically the same. The only difference is the formula, for the so-called better E. The -liquid formula costs more than 2 times, which is obviously not cost-effective, so it is recommended not to blindly follow the trend to buy imported E-liquid.
Domestic E-liquid has a large number of 5ML-10ML samples to choose from, the procurement cost is very low, and the trial cost of imported E-liquid is high.
Even if the quality of imported E-liquid is much higher than that of domestic E-liquid, it may not be suitable for you. It is not the rich, please consider carefully, and it is best for you.
