Cheaper in China

Do you know LightInTheBox? I presume you don’t. And if you do.. have you ever considered buying stuff from them? I didn’t either… until a few weeks ago.

I needed tweezers and I went to a local store (Kruidvat) in Antwerp. It would cost me € 7.49 to buy bad quality tweezers. So I decided to skip them and buy some from LightInTheBox instead. The same low-quality stuff at a very low price ($ 3.19) with NO shipping cost and straight from China.

And guess what? They arrived two weeks later, shipped overseas by airmail (!). At no extra cost.

Why do I have a bad feeling about this? ;-)
