Most used clothing is exported to developing countries, especially LDCs. In 2017, sub-Saharan African countries imported 23.8% of the global used clothing trade, far exceeding other regions.
An important factor behind the boom in the used clothing trade is the import demand for used clothing by some of the world's least developed countries. For example, the East African Economic Community countries, Kenya, Rwanda and Uganda are Africa's largest import markets for used clothing. Imported used clothing is cheaper and of better quality than new clothing from local clothing factories. In Rwanda, the price of used clothes is usually only one-fifth of the price of new locally-made clothes.

In recent years, the huge profits brought by the acquisition of second-hand clothing have pushed this "low-key" industry from behind the scenes to the front. According to statistics in March 2019, the purchase price of second-hand clothing per ton ranges from 600 yuan to 2,800 yuan. First-hand sellers "sell" second-hand clothes at a price of 0 to 0.3 yuan. The huge acquisition spread in the middle is enviable.
Consumers are not ready to buy at full price, and there are actually many cheaper ways to find the high-quality items they want. The following are several popular second-hand goods resale platforms abroad: eBay, OfferUp, Poshmark, Tradesy, Chairish

FBA first service and Amazon are not responsible for customs clearance and the service of sending goods from China to Amazon warehouse. FBA first service refers to the service of transporting goods from China to Amazon warehouse. There are special services to meet this demand. For example、 Todropshipping has services in South China and East China. FBA should have four delivery methods in the first journey and on the market:
1. Direct delivery; DHL、 UPS、 Fedex and other products are generally priced at more than 20kg. They are fast and suitable for urgent replenishment. In addition、 express delivery is free of reservation warehousing、 but it should be noted that Amazon does not act as the main body of customs clearance、 is not responsible for customs clearance and tax payment、 and must do a good job of declaration and tariff advance and prepare local customs clearance importers in advance. In general、 Todropshipping can provide tax number borrowing.
2. FBA Air+Dispatch: It is transported to the local place by air and then sent to the Amazon warehouse by local express. It is fast and slightly slower than direct delivery. Express delivery is very convenient for warehousing without reservation. At present、 the air+pie on the market is generally double tax payment、 does not need to pay customs duties in advance、 and the cost is also very cheap、 about 20-30 RMB/kg.
3. FBA sea transportation first journey: sea transportation+local customs clearance+destination country delivery、 with a slightly longer time limit. The full price does not include tax. It is almost 1000 yuan per square meter. The United States and Britain are cheaper、 while Canada is more expensive. The first voyage of this kind of sea transportation is long and usually takes more than a month. At that time、 it was a trailer that was sent to Amazon. It usually requires warehousing reservation. The operation is more troublesome than express delivery. However、 the price is cheap. If you calculate it as 1CBM=167kg、 it is just a few yuan and 1kg、 which is 1kg cheaper than the express delivery. The cost of 10 cases of 20kg goods and express delivery is about 6000、 but it is estimated that the cost of sea transportation is less than 2000. However、 it has a long time limit and is suitable for non urgent replenishment.
4. Overseas warehouse allocation: put goods in Todropshipping overseas warehouse. One can be used as Amazon FBA. In addition、 it can sell goods from overseas warehouses on other platforms. There are many options for transferring goods from overseas warehouses to Amazon. You can choose express delivery without reservation or trailer delivery. The method is flexible and simple. It can also be replenished more frequently and the replenishment time is short. In addition、 the customs clearance problem has been solved before the goods arrive at the warehouse、 and there is no big problem when the goods are sent from the warehouse to Amazon. In particular、 Amazon FBA will raise prices next year、 and it will also try other platforms、 such as self built platforms、 wish、 and many new platforms.

First of all、 we learned that the overseas warehouse is actually a kind of overseas leased warehouse derived from the service of cross-border e-commerce or foreign trade. The appearance of overseas warehouse has greatly improved the storage and delivery time、 efficiency problems、 logistics costs、 customs clearance fees、 etc. For the seller、 a series of savings and efficiency improvements have made the profit of the seller's own products continue to increase、 followed by a more convenient delivery service One piece consignment of overseas warehouse is divided into one piece consignment of supplier's goods source and self owned goods source to prepare goods for overseas warehouse. After the customer places an order、 the overseas warehouse system issues delivery instructions、 and the overseas warehouse staff receives the instructions、 they are responsible for the final delivery work such as packaging and shipment.
Naturally、 we have some understanding of his process from the understanding of overseas warehouse and one agent:
1. The cross-border foreign trade seller arranges express delivery to deliver the goods to the US warehouse;
2. The warehouse shall count the goods received and put them on shelves;
3. When a buyer places an order on the platform、 the buyer uploads the order in the warehouse system;
4. The warehouse receives the order instruction to distribute goods and deliver goods、 and the American local logistics delivery;
5. The buyer receives the order item.
