Hey guys,
I am thinking about starting my headshop. I am located in Canada, near the US/Canada border.
The average bong imported costs around 32 US dollars (including import taxes). Shipping is around $17 (includes tracking), bubble wrap, and box.
So that is around $42, and then the payment processor takes around 6.4% (high risk merchant)
So if the bong is around $60, the fees will break down to
Payment Processor Fees - $4.44
Cost of Product - $32
Shipping - $17
Warehousing - $5
--------------------------------
Profit left over - $1.56
The pros are the glass bongs are all high quality, shipped from canada/us/quicker, any issues you have you can easily contact me and resolve the issue, and I can import glass that people like and get suggestions and/or give you suggestions. I know a lot of suppliers around the world.
Cons - Slighty more expensive than dhgate, not the same selection.
If you are interested, you can PM your email and I can send a letter when the store is ready.
