Once again, Mouth in gear but Brain still in nuetral.shotdot wrote:Why do you (6ye) feel compelled to have a reseller? Some of your business competitors (such as DH168) do sell direct from aliexpress. In that business model all you need to do is creating a competent product page at aliexpress. Then, you keep all the profit for yourself and have much higher leverage in price wars.
I, personally, have seen 6ye 166A listed at aliexpress for $810, and almost hit the buy button. If it were $1000, forget about it. $2000? You must be kidding, it just a bunch of pipes covered in rubber with cute shape.
There are hobbies that provide more insight. For example, kitesurfing is about of the same age (and about the same equipment expenses:-). In 2005 one of visionary kitesurfing enthusiasts declared: "we sell direct". With clever marketing (involving sexy kitegirls shots) and correct pricing model his company quickly rose to #1 position. Then, they decided "let's become a premium brand". They raised the prices and now the company is struggling not to file for bankruptcy. And it is not just one example (bikesdirect.com, etc)...
6yE Global does sell direct as well

There is also an on line market site for Dongguan Six Wild Model Props Co., Ltd that appears to be the factory local for china agent as well, but this is not a proven affiliation as yet, just likely affiliation for the CHina Market, hence the 6YE Golbal designation for dolls to be ordered for international markets.
So. happy for 6YE Global to confirm.
