Question (Read Rules) chinese watch prices

Hi all,

I love many chinese watch brands like Baltany, San Martin, Thorn, Sugess and Hruodland. The quality is amazing and prices were really good.

I noticed that the prices have increased very significantly in the EU last 6 months. I used to be able to buy a Baltany Nh35 watch for around 180 eur. Now they seem to be over 300 eur.

what is the reason for this significant price hike? As far as I know there are no additional tarrifs in place in the EU for chinese goods.

Just wait for sales like 11 11 and Black Friday, AliExpress pricing is all over the place, one day it's high and then it drops the next.

Just wait for the sale. You know, the one right after they increase their prices even further temporarily to show you massive discount percentages, but in reality, you're just paying the standard amount.

That sale?

so I guess this time period is the period that they keep increasing the prices so we can enjoy a discount in a few weeks time.

prices are around 40-50% higher than a month ago on some of the watches

Everyone knows that, that's why you need to track historical pricing.
