Introduction to purchasing parallel mobile phones
Introduction to purchasing parallel mobile phones

Yesterday, Xiao Bian sorted out all kinds of scams that may be encountered when buying mobile phones online. However, no matter whether it is online or face-to-face transactions, it is possible to buy a high imitation machine, unless it is entered into the official website or the exclusive store. So today, I will popularize some basic knowledge about buying smuggled mobile phones, so that netizens who read this article can at least have a basic sense of identity whether they buy mobile phones online or in physical stores. This article is still based on the ID number of The articles written by our netizens are sorted out.

Mobile phones are mainly divided into these categories:

1. Mainland licensed goods That is, the machines sold in mainland China have passed the normal customs entry inspection and the certification of the Ministry of Information Industry, and have access licenses and national joint insurance certificates. Mobile phones sold formally in the market can be jointly insured nationwide! As we all know, domestic tariffs are heavy, so this kind of machine is relatively expensive!

2. Smuggled goods That is, the machines that have been smuggled into the mainland but have not passed the certification of the Ministry of Information Industry, have no network access license and cannot be jointly insured nationwide. This kind of machine is relatively cheap compared with the licensed products because it has not paid the tariff. The parallel products include the Asia Pacific version, the European version, the Hong Kong version, and the Asia Pacific version sold in the Asia Pacific region, with simplified Chinese characters; The European version is a machine sold in Europe, usually without Chinese, and needs to install third-party software to display Chinese; The Hong Kong version is a machine sold in Hong Kong, in simplified and traditional Chinese (note that the Hong Kong version is also divided into Hong Kong Branch and Hong Kong Water. Hong Kong Branch can provide warranty, but Hong Kong Water cannot provide warranty, but many sellers sell Hong Kong Water as Hong Kong Branch in order to increase the selling price). Note that there is generally no combination of several yards for smuggled goods. If someone says that his combination of several yards for smuggled goods is absolutely fake! (Except for some Macintoshes)

3. Water diversion This kind of mobile phone is a kind of mobile phone that is used by businesses to convert the parallel mobile phone into Chinese software through English software, that is, to add a Chinese font library to make it a mobile phone that supports Chinese, so as to serve as a merchandising sales to increase the sales price. Since the Chinese character library will occupy some memory for other purposes, the phone may sacrifice some of its original functions. In addition, there may be a small bug at the beginning. However, with the upgrade of software version, small bugs can usually be solved. (Note: digital cameras also have a lot of water diversion)

4. Assembling machine This kind of mobile phone is disassembled and assembled, and the internal parts are generally replaced, so the quality is not guaranteed!

5. Refurbishing machine This kind of mobile phone is renovated by some means such as cleaning the appearance and changing the shell, and then sold as a brand new one. The profit of this kind of mobile phone is relatively high in the mobile phone industry!

6. Trigger This kind of mobile phone is upgraded to another type of high model mobile phone by replacing some parts of the mobile phone and other hardware modifications, and the quality of this type of mobile phone is not guaranteed!

7. Engineering machine Many people also call this type of mobile phone a model machine, because a mobile phone will undergo many modifications and improvements in various aspects before it is produced and launched, and then be tested, including structure, software, hardware, etc. During the whole process of improvement, the manufacturer will make some prototypes of semi-finished products and finished products, also known as factory test machines. Some of these engineering machines will be filed by the manufacturer, some will be sold to employees at a low price, some will be destroyed and scrapped, and some businesses will seek profits by obtaining engineering machines through special channels and selling them as parallel machines at a relatively favorable price. Those who are greedy for cheap will easily buy such machines!

8. 2. Mobile phone Businesses recycle machines used by others.

9. 14 Tianji There is a 14 day trial period for mobile phones purchased in European countries. During the trial period, if the buyer has any dissatisfaction with the machine, he can change the machine. Moreover, the returned machine cannot be sold on the counter again, so these machines will be recycled by some businesses and sent to other countries for sale, such as China. This kind of mobile phone is strictly equivalent to a new one, and its price is more advantageous than the original version!

What you need to know when buying imported mobile phones (i.e. parallel mobile phones):

1. Brands usually include:

Apple, HTC, Samsung, Motorola, Sony, Nokia, LG

2. Parallel cargo channel:

More than 90% of the country's smuggled goods arrive in Shenzhen through a special channel from Hong Kong, and then are distributed from Shenzhen to the whole country. Because the risk of this special channel is quite large, there are not many merchants (no more than 100) who can have this channel. In addition, there are many brands and models, so it is impossible for any of them to have all kinds of smuggled goods, and because of the great risk, Every store will try to finish the goods on the same day! Therefore, the smuggled goods merchants all over the country, including large and small sellers on the Internet, actually all come from less than 100 merchants in the same source channel! As for some sellers who tell you that they are large in scale, have their own warehouses and stock up their own goods, you should be more careful, because no seller is foolish enough to take the risk of falling mobile phone prices to stock up!

3. Parallel price:

Every day, the mobile phones are shipped from Hong Kong to Shenzhen the night before or in the morning of the same day, and then a price list for that day will be drawn up at around 12:00-14:00 every day. Although the prices offered by various businesses may vary slightly, they are generally within the range of about 10 yuan. No matter how many or how few consignees pick up the goods, they all take the price as the standard, and do not include after-sales service. They must check the machine on the spot, so the cost prices of smugglers and online sellers are almost the same! As for some sellers who say that their sales volume is large, so they can make the sales price much cheaper by taking the goods cheap, you have to think about it!

4. About mobile phones and related accessories:

In order to successfully transport mobile phones from Hong Kong to Shenzhen, they must be packed and transported separately (except for some Apple, as mentioned above), that is, mobile phones, batteries, packaging and accessories are all transported separately. After arriving in Shenzhen, they are assembled when picking up the goods. Due to the large number of goods shipped at one time, Therefore, it is impossible to find the cell phone and the box with the same serial code, so that there is no unsolved, three code in one and four code in one (serial code in the cell phone, serial code in the cell phone battery compartment, serial code on the packaging box, serial code on the invoice, this is four code), There is only two codes in one (that is, the serial code in the mobile phone is the same as the serial code in the cell phone battery compartment), and the serial code on the packaging box can be bought for two yuan each, so it is three codes in one, and with a problematic invoice (the cost is no more than two yuan), it is four codes in one, and finally with a plastic seal (cost 50 cents), it is an undivided four codes in one, The undivided four code one will charge you about 100 more, which is higher than the profit of selling a mobile phone. It is also because of this special mode of transportation that there are individual packages and instructions, and even a few accessories are directly equipped in Shenzhen. Usually, they are equipped with original ones, but it is not uncommon for them to be equipped with similar height (although this situation is rare, there are indeed), and only batteries are absolutely shipped from Hong Kong! So the seller said that his gray mobile phone is original, not split, three yards, four yards in one, and all accessories are guaranteed to be 100% original. Then you have to carefully consider the seller's integrity! There is no absolute! There is no absolute 100%! There are only two absolute things, hehe

5. Deliberately pursuing the version will only make you a victim of deception! (Version includes: European version, Asia Pacific version and Hong Kong version)

In fact, mobile phones in Shenzhen gray market do not distinguish between different versions, except for individual Hong Kong versions. Therefore, it is impossible to determine what version of the product is before picking up. According to my survey, there are not a few buyers who have been cheated by the version, and the Asia Pacific version is the most popular version! (As we all know, the price of the Hong Kong version is the most expensive!) I suggest you not to pursue the Hong Kong version too deliberately. In fact, the quality and performance of the European water, Asia Pacific and Hong Kong versions are almost the same, almost no difference! Except for the Japanese version and the Korean version!

6. Port version (port version is divided into port bank and port water, also known as main port and back port)

The machines of Hong Kong Branch (Zhenggang) and Gangshui (Hougang) are exactly the same. The difference is that the former can be guaranteed in Hong Kong, while the latter does not! Since there is a warranty, there must be a regular operator purchase invoice and a joint warranty sticker from the Hong Kong Bank. A printed invoice of 2 yuan can be bought in Shenzhen, and a warranty sticker of 20 cents for wholesale. After these two things are equipped, Hong Kong Water will become a Hong Kong Bank immediately. This technique is exactly the same as the above mentioned "several yards in one". It is suggested that those who pursue Hong Kong Bank and are not poor in money can go to Hong Kong Fengze, Broadway and other major shopping malls to buy it. The price is usually one exchange rate lower than the domestic market price!
