abc news today reports the picture
is like buying new year goods at the end of the year, and Westerners will also fight hard before the new year. One game. In popular shopping destinations such as Outlets, Costco, and Macy’s, a large number of queuing people have already gathered at the door.
According to the BBC report, the Black Friday queue has been called a business
In the impression of Ji Guojun, the Chinese people began to have an interest in the "wool wool" on the Black Friday, probably starting in 2014. The large and small purchasing agents and overseas students in the ticket circle will stock up as much as possible these days, and domestic users will pay close attention to overseas shopping information.
Many purchasing agents in the ticket circle have also rushed to the United States and Europe in advance | Beijing-New York air ticket price trends around the Black Friday
But this year, in addition to the gradual tightening of policies and the early digestion of large amounts of shopping demand on Double Eleven, exchange rate fluctuations are also constantly Affecting the enthusiasm of Chinese people for Black Friday.
Especially this year, the exchange rate of US dollar to RMB has reached 7.02 (it can reach 6.2 at the lowest time). For the Chinese, is there still wool for this Black Friday? After carefully studying various websites, Ji Guojun got the affirmative answer!
has some tangible discounts, which are really unsolvable during the domestic shopping festival!
Apple is much cheaper, but you have to buy
. For most people, the focus of the shopping festival is bound to be mobile phones and computers, which are frequently updated electronic digital products. (Buy electronic digital products such as speakers and cameras that are delayed for half a year, we will also mention them later)
1, can the iPhone be cheaper?
Many people will be curious, Pinduoduo has already cut the price of this new iPhone to the lowest price of 4599. Do people still need to pay attention to the US version? Don't worry, listen to Ji Guojun to analyze and analyze.
Earlier on Double Eleven, Ji Guojun mentioned the price trend of the iPhone 11 National Bank version, and the 64G entry-level National Bank version is as low as 4500 for all channels. (This price is extremely rare. In addition to the need for hand speed and internet speed, it also requires luck. More people are often notified to cut the order without having time to cheer after placing the order.)

Therefore, for most people, it is not a loss to buy a 64G iPhone 11 conveniently and quickly at a price of about 5000 in China. But the problem is that this good price may not be so attractive to many people who are used to using iPhone as their main machine.
64G storage is really not enough
but the good prices of Double Eleven seem to be mostly concentrated in the 64G entry version, and the more popular high storage 128G/256G version rarely shows good prices.

And Ji Guojun saw the Black Friday, which is today. The great prices are mainly concentrated in three ways: student discounts, old equipment replacement, and contract models. The iPhone 11 contract machine (also known as the locked machine), which starts at $699 from
, can return up to $700 to $800 if you exchange for the old machine, and you can return a gift card or cash of $300 to $400 without exchange. PS: The redemption requirements are not high, most websites support 5S and subsequent models.
Mr. Jiguo knows what you are going to say-I have been blocked by Apple after a lock, who will buy it? Don't rush to complain, a small number of contract packages are supported for cancellation.
For example, the T-Mobile contract machine mentioned in the Costco promotion not only has a maximum of 700 dollars in exchange for cash back, but also supports the termination of the contract after 3 months.
looks at the small print part
so that you can get an iPhone 11 at least for a price of 6s+299 dollars, and the newer iPhone also supports cashback and discounts. (According to a package of $100 a month, cancel the package after three months, then the cost = 699+100*3-700=299 dollars)
will not be counted, it’s okay, you just need to know, after about 3 months, You may see many iPhone 11 US version without locks (non-hacked) prices from the WeChat account circle as low as 3,000 yuan.

At this time, you need to be aware that the US version of the iPhone is single-card (Universal Huaqiang North has a dual-card service), and the locked models only support specific operators, domestically possible There are some models that can be unlocked by special means, so you need to buy them carefully. But if you just want to play with the phone, it is OK to buy a locked iPhone 11 as a backup model with WIFI or hotspot for a price of early 3,000. (Dog head.jpg
In addition to the new iPhone 11 series, for the Haitao mobile phone party, the old iPhone seems to have more reasons to start.

2, Apple Watch, HomePod, AirPods and Mac

5 generation of Apple Watch, Amazon has a low price of 379 dollars, which is equivalent to about 2,665 yuan, and it is not a unique price, but it is also worth starting with other things. The 3rd generation of the old GPS version on Wal-Mart has also been as low as $129, equivalent to less than 1,000 yuan, but it is restricted to pick up the goods at the store.
This year’s new hot airPods Pro, generally discounted to $234, equivalent to 1,645 yuan. . But compared to the small domestic discount ➕ interest-free installment, it seems that the temptation is not so strong. The

If you have relatives and friends in the United States, it is not difficult to save 4000...
The Apple product I tried is HomePod. This product has been released for two years. Although it is not that big in China, it has a good reputation. The price of Black Five Best Buy is $199.99, which is less than RMB 1,500. The domestic price has been strong. 2000+.
save up to 10,000 unit price, these devices can burn
1, Sony breaks bones, poor camera Can the price be more than 10,000?

But when on platforms such as Focus Camera and B&H,The student discount package tax price is as low as $2449, which is equivalent to RMB 17,212. The little friends in the office are not calm. . .

2, things that are not easy to buy in China, and try to find them at a low price. In the list of products that

and some other "cheap big bowl" gadgets, suitable for making up the order, the risk of transshipment is not too big.

must have a light 8G version of KPW4, the price is as low as 85 knives, equivalent to 598 yuan, the domestic market price of 998 yuan last year.

There are so many good prices, how can I get the wool?
Friends who are experienced in overseas shopping can probably skip this step. But for novice users, in addition to mastering discount information, you probably only need visa card or PayPal. (Some websites support Alipay or WeChat, which will be mentioned later)
-Transshipment and tax issues
Most overseas online shopping websites do not support shipping back to China. At this time, there are two solutions: there are relatives and friends abroad or transfer mail Return home. Many players who are eager to try are mostly stuck in the transfer process.
PS: The transshipment company is equipped with transit warehouses in different countries, and the intermediary responsible for mailing your overseas shopping goods back to the country, they will charge a certain freight. If you have more needs such as return/unpacking/tax-included, you can purchase various value-added services.
When you shop on Haitao, fill in the delivery address as the warehouse address of the forwarding company, and then choose the mailing method reasonably according to the category of the purchased product.

Take the sports shoes that male compatriots often buy overseas as an example, the transshipment fee for two pairs of Nike shoes usually does not exceed 200, and the tax rate is not too large. Compared with the domestic price difference, it is very cost-effective most of the time. If you encounter a large discount, it will be even more beautiful.

And digital electronic products, the more you need to worry about may be tax or damage to goods. According to Jiguojun's not-so-rich experience, it is best to spend 200 yuan on insurance for big items with a big price difference, or just mail them with tax package.
For Xiaobai, good news has continued in recent years-more and more overseas brands have noticed the demand for domestic overseas shopping, and many overseas online shopping websites have gradually opened lines dedicated to direct mail to China, such as Amazon and Japan Amazon, etc.; some websites have specially built Chinese portals to support Alipay or direct mail to China, such as ssense and net a porter; some simply put apps on the domestic shelves, such as Farfetch;
even just a few days ago, Amazon overseas purchases Settled directly on the Pinduoduo platform.

If you want to think about it, you may wish to start with simple items such as simple shoes and clothes, daily use, and old equipment.
