cause delivery supermarkets have larger profitmarkets thant some proper subscibe services used to have
it's just the customs and taxes that would fuck you up
not really if you plan the price right
most customs as i said ignore packets under 20
and if the subscription is 20 you only tag that
@Tervy it's literally the same price as in the supermarket, they deliver it for free over something like €25 or pack it for you in the nearest supermarket no fees attached
But to _get_ 30% profit your subscription service, after taxes, shipping, packaging labor etc you need quite a bit more than 30% markup
even if that months packet happens to be worth 30-40
But to send <€20 packages without customs and taxes, you'd have to open shop in China
And the chinkshit subscription idea only works domestically if you have a warehouse where you can accept bulk shipments, re-package and ship the chinkshit that costs you nothing
Alternatively dropship everything
any other way you have to import everything, and then customs and taxes come into play
not withing EU
to other countries sadly yes
but there would be "tax estimate 2 dollar" extra for non-eu countries or such
But then the customers would be upset that the shipping times are extremely different and slow and that the original price is on the package, asides from getting chink spam
it would need way more investigating to make accurate estimate of custom prices
to be included subsciption prices
well same aplies to any subrscibtion service
Also, you'd probably end up in jail if you don't start a legitimate business because the tax people would wonder where the fuck did you get all that money from
ofc it would need to be legit business duh
And that'd mean you'd have to pay tax
aka get taxed to death
and have to employ people both in yellowland and home
Which means it's impossible to be profitable without extreme markup, at least in northern europe
tax aint that bad as long as you send items what are not retarded (hdds etc)
also customers pay the taxes
companies are tax-free industry
on most european countries
so the tax would be need to be added to price based where you are located
if they make taxfraud its not the shops problem
its the customers
similarily to G2A does
"where are you located = non eu country = no digital service bullshit tax"
you have to automate that or you're helping them commit tax fraud, though
i'm not sure what sites like that do is legal
in the EU at least
t. went to law school
brb, though, gotta study
its legal to let user to determine what country they are in
