Bulk luggage: pros and cons?

Buying suitcases in bulk can result in significant discounts, but there is a risk of purchasing substandard or counterfeit products. Wholesale companies may require a minimum purchase, and the quality of the luggage may not last. Careful research and teamwork can help avoid these issues.

Some benefits of buying suitcases in bulk are the ability to receive substantial discounts and the ability to join other people in getting even bigger discounts. On the other hand, the disadvantages of buying in bulk are marginal discounts when placing small orders and the likelihood of accidentally buying substandard products or counterfeit items. Teamwork and careful research are required to avoid these problems, but there’s always some risk in ordering a new product from a company you’ve never faced before.

One of the major benefits of buying luggage wholesale is the potential discount a buyer gets compared to buying the retail price. Luggage is typically an expensive purchase, but if bought in bulk, that price could drop to around 50 percent of the current retail price. The total discount depends largely on the number of pieces purchased by the customer and the profit the manufacturer wants to make from each piece.

A potential downside to buying luggage in bulk is that sometimes a person has to buy a lot of luggage to get a good discount. One piece is one luggage box or one set, and the wholesale company may require all customers to purchase a minimum amount to do business with them. For example, it’s not unusual for wholesale companies to place a minimum of six pieces on most items. If the luggage sets are not for resale but for personal use, the customer can group with others to buy many bags and receive a greater discount than offered when buying alone.

Sometimes wholesale luggage is inferior in quality and not designed to last more than a year with regular use. Baggage handles could break, wheels come off or clips break. There are many things that can go wrong with cheap luggage that don’t happen with well-made luggage containers until after a decade or so.

Another potential downside to buying luggage in bulk is the likelihood of buying counterfeit items. Some expensive branded companies make their own luggage sets, and while these sets are occasionally offered at a discount, they’re unlikely to be found new at a small percentage of the going price. Wholesale counterfeit luggage is a real problem similar to counterfeit clothing and jewelry. Sometimes manufacturers of counterfeit items suggest that the wholesale luggage is not genuine with phrases such as “authentic replica brand luggage set”, which can be confusing, but basically mean the item is a real fake.
