hopes to be able to capture a slice of the international eRetail market
by offering to ship to international customers from the United States.
This means customers must be willing to pay the higher shipping costs as
well as import duties and taxes to take advantage of lower US
merchandise prices.
Beautyjungle.com now accepts orders from customers in 16 countries:
Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, India, Ireland, Israel,
Netherlands, The Philippines, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom and
Venezuela. Additional countries are expected to be added later this
year.
International customers have access to most of the 225 brands and
10,000 products on Beautyjungle.com, which sells a complete range of
beauty items, including makeup, skincare, haircare, nailcare,
fragrances, and fashion accessories. Beautyjungle.com claims to be the
only eRetailer authorized by manufacturers to offer a complete span of
beauty products, including prestigious international brands, exclusive
spa and dermatological lines, and mass-market brands. In many countries,
Beautyjungle.com will be the exclusive source for dozens of brands, such
as U.S.-based Fresh, Philosophy and Three Custom Color.
All orders are shipped to the credit cardholder's billing address. To
help customers determine shipping charges, a FedEx rate table for many
countries is posted on the site. Shipping charges, delivery times,
taxes, duties and customs fees vary by country.
Beautyjungle.com says it complies with regulations regarding the
international sales and transport of beauty products into each country.
To safeguard against the reselling of product in foreign countries,
Beautyjungle.com limits order quantities of same-items to 10 or fewer.
