Main difference I think is scale.
The Civic sold almost 400,000 units in 2017. The entire philippines didn't even do that well.
So car manufacturers in the USA can afford to lower their prices since sagot sa sheer numbers yung overhead, admin and some of their logistical costs.
Lack of scale, and yung ridiculous excise tax naten is what I think contributes to the higher car prices here.
Also possibly applies to the price of general merchandise you see sa ibang bansa.
It's not in my personality kasi e
P11 lang kasi sa Nordstrom P1689, sa SSI (Nars PH) P1700.
Naasar nga ko sa childhood BFF ko kasi hindi nago online. Nasa US kasi siya ngayon, uuwi ng June e may balak pa ko bilhin para sa boss at office BFF ko.
Pag konti lang yung difference, I'd prefer to shop local. My way of trying to keep the local importers and retailers alive. Pag maubos yung mga yan, only the big companies will be left (including some of those you dislike very much). Local shops have to pay rent, salaries, importation costs, logistics... Yung sa online, mura lang yung domain saka database.
If it's clear overcharging, ibang usapan yun.
