Guest guest Posted February 18, 2000 Report Share Posted February 18, 2000 I was wondering if anyone else gets these requests for samples and catalogs from overseas companies and if so what do you do about them? This is my third one and it is from Turkey. The last one from S. Korea. I requested a little more info and never heard back from them. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 21, 2000 Report Share Posted February 21, 2000 Hello all I thought I should say something about this. Although I'm not a company and don't sell toiletries yet (I'm on the list just to learn a little more about something I think is fascinating), I live in a thrid world country: Brazil. IMHO, if you get any inquiries from here, I'd be careful on replying. As Butch in Ankara said, most of these inquiries would come from people who have no interest in buying your stuff. I wouldn't say they'd be selling the samples though. I think it would be for perasonal consume. But the importation costs here are quite high, and I wouldn't think it would make things worth while. I'm one who'd be really interested in trying some of the things I see all through the net, but I think if I'd have to pay for the product, the cost would be too high (the price itself - US$ 1.00=R$ 1.80 which is quite a lot - the shipping, and taxes). I'm not saying you shouldn't try it, but be careful. Now, if it is a request from a company, it might be useful to give it a thought. There's a fuss about " natural " products around here and it might be worth while. If you get any requests from Brazilian companies, you can conand I can check wether it is a honest business or not.
