Goodies from the USA

One of my cousins came by and asked to sell these goodies. They were delivered a few weeks back from her younger sister in LA. As I checked the price list, they were quite pricey. Thus, I am skeptical if they can be sold fast. If I am an online seller, then I'll offer them without being shy in front of the video camera. Have you tried to be an online seller? Do you have the guts to do it on social media?

i would check the price in the groceries and online sites (if there are online sellers) before i set a competitive price, plus who shoulders the shipping and coverage area.

I think they are quite pricey. I told my cousin that we will try to sell them. The price is too high for the consumers to buy. You are right that it needs to check the prices in groceries or online sites.

@Shavkat did the younger sister in LA send them specifically for reselling?

@hereandthere Yes, my friend. I think she got them with discounted prices there.

I also never tried it. It is not my thing to be a vlogger on YouTube, which other people do.

No, I am not into selling the goods online. Toblerone was a Swiss company in the past, the mountain on the box is the Matterhorn.

I never dared to be one, too. Perhaps I can be a seller offline but not online. I love this Toblerone. Thanks for the short trivia about it. There are so many delicious sweets from Switzerland.

@Shavkat Chocolate is usually very good in Switzerland and chocolate pralines in Belgium. I do not know why Toblerone was sold to Mondelez International, surely some fiscal tricks.

I think that's the best idea that I can take it. One thing for sure, I can just send private messages if dealing with business transactions.

Did she give you any incentive or commission or something if you can sell them?

The agreement is to mark up the goodies. But then, it seems that I cannot mark up because of his given prices.

I never sell anything. But I don't think it should be video. You can post pictures too.

I agree. It is also a good option to post pictures instead of exposing myself on social media.

You can try Shopee. But they'll melt right? Will it be okay being sent by the courier?
