In addition, the situation of shoddy and domestically-sold foreign goods is also common. In this regard, industry insiders reminded that when selecting wallpapers, you should carefully identify the real imported brands, not the more expensive the better.

Where are the imported products expensive?

The prices of domestic brands range from tens of yuan to hundreds of yuan, and many imported brands cost as much as 1,000 yuan - 2000 yuan / volume. And a roll of wallpaper can usually only be laid 5 square meters of space. Although imported wallpapers are expensive, sales people generally point out that citizens now prefer to import imported wallpapers because of their bright colors and better mold resistance. "The choice of wallpaper is generally a young family. Generally, there are not many large-area or overall wallpapers. It is only used to decorate the wall of a bedroom or a TV background wall. Therefore, it will choose imported wallpaper with a slightly higher price and better quality. ”

However, the reporter found that imported wallpapers have an amazing price difference in the domestic and foreign markets. A famous German brand wallpaper searched on the Amazon website for a price of 20 euros, equivalent to less than 200 yuan.
