Everyone knows online sites that carry wholesale shoes from various brands offer the best bargains compared to the brand’s official websites. But despite this, can you still get better deals? It just takes some patience and time to compare between wholesalers. Here are some things to consider.
Know What Label, Style, or Model
The first step to getting the best bargains online is to know exactly what brand or label you want. Do you want a Gucci or a Ralph Lauren? Or are you looking for a simple high-heeled pair of sandals within a certain price? If you are looking for a Ralph Lauren, is the shoe you want part of the Collection or the Black Label line? It pays to know the various style names under a label so you can do an apple-to-apple comparison between one wholesale shoes distributor and another.
Know Your Shoe Size
Some people prefer to shop for footwear in malls where they can check the fit directly. Online shopping is easy, but you have to know your shoe size in the measurement stated in the online store. If it’s an EU site, you may need to know your EU size equivalent even if it doesn’t have the US measurement. It will take a bit trial and error, too, because there is no universal sizing for all brands. A size 7 may feel small for you for one brand and may feel just right for another.
Know your Shipping Costs
If you live in Florida, you can save on shipping costs getting your shoes from distributors of wholesale shoes in Miami. However, you will be limited by the brands available in your area. Don’t make the mistake of purchasing from online shops outside of the US. Unless the shoes are worth it, the shipping fees will kill you.
Check out as Many Wholesalers as Possible
Online stores carrying wholesale shoes for women are not created equal. Some have a more complete line-up while others concentrate on certain brands. Some even go as far as carrying only specific items within a brand. For instance, the popular wholesaler Alibaba.com doesn’t carry women’s boots under its Ralph Lauren stocks. And while you can get really cheap wholesale shoes from Amazon, you’d be lucky to find a Ralph Lauren Jassie in its inventory. Looking for the best deals online can be time-consuming if you’re looking for a specific label or style, but it pays in terms of great bargains when it works out in your favor. Lastly, make sure to check for online reviews about sites offering wholesale shoes so you don’t get scammed.
