Amazing profit in the fashion industry

Despite recession, the Swedish teens seems to have a lot of money to spend on clothes. So much that they are willing to pay double the price for the item!
If you think about it, almost all clothes, big or unknown brands comes from one source or country where they were made. The further away from the source you buy, the dearer the price you'll pay. This is quite logical in the old world where you've got to make a lot of effort to buy from a foreign country but with today's efficient infrastructure and internet technology, there's simply no excuse to pay more.

Now there's a couple webshops in Sweden that take advantage of this and using popular blogs as marketing media they are making a fortune from ignorent Swedish 'teens'. Chicy.se is one of the site.
I'll pick out 2 of their items as example.
You can find this Luxury Sequin Dress for 699SEK at Chicy.

 But if you really can't afford it, you can get it for 41USD = 280SEK at Zipia, the Korean online shop where Chicy got their goods from. Of cource shipping is additional but I bet it won't cost the 419SEK extra Chicy charge you for.
Fancy a nice coat? You can find this lovely one at Chicy for 989SEK.
 Or go to Zipia and get it for 424SEK.
Actually Zipia is still the middle man. After receiving your order they'll go and buy it from shops in the street and don't do this favor for free. With Zipia, at least they deserve the credit they take in filtering out the nice stuff, arranging pictures and got out there and get it for you. What Chicy does to deserve the 100% profit margin they've added on the item, is a mystery to me. If you're going to order the clothes online, save some money by typing www.zipia.net instead of www.chicy.se.
