What if I decide to travel and bring with me along?

[prabha_friend]

Hi,
I am Prabhakaran from India. I recently found a website which charges 10000 indian bucks as an annual pro membership fee which includes free shipping from the below three countries: UK, USA and Dubai. But the products itself are very high in rates usually as the sellers are based on different countries.

My Question is what If I decide to travel that country and bring those products along with me or arranging a bulk import through cargo through ships all arranged by myself? Would that be an advantage? Advice needed. Thanks.

P.S:
Nothing great things I import but silly things like soups, scents, air fresheners and all other small small more varied items only. I heard there is a concept called 'Half cargo' is in prevailaince. Please reply and share your views. Thanks. 10000 INR is a bit costly for me to just be a member of any site.

I tend to agree with Pat. Don't think people don't want to answer your posts, it's might be more that we lack the requisite experience.

Maybe you would get more helpful revelations from other people in India who have wanted to import the same types of things - they might know better which websites or vendors have worked well for them in the past. All I can do is imagine what it might be like to live in India. (And frankly, I can't even do that very well. Is it more Slumdog Millionaire and rivers of sewage, or is it more beautiful bollywood girls dancing with their Romeos? I have no idea).
