Half of America buys from Amazon

Why buy Amazon products?

Today almost half of Americans start their product searches on Amazon. Making it the number one shopping destination. People are primarily motivated to buy Amazon products due to low prices and convenience. Additionally, Amazon is a one-stop-shop where you can buy different things they need at various price points. Further, shoppers can narrow down the list of choices by scrolling through the product reviews. This again is a key reason people buy Amazon products over other retailers.

Buying through Amazon has many benefits

It™s no secret that Amazon has created a convenient and efficient shopping experience that™s difficult to match. However, the fact remains directly ordering from Amazon can have its pitfalls as customs duty and customs clearance applies in Sri Lanka. This is the reality in Sri Lanka. The sheer uncertainty of the entire purchase cycle makes it prudent to partner with a renowned organization like Kapruka Global Shop.

What Amazon products are not allowed to be shipped to Sri Lanka?

This is the tricky one. Many products are not allowed to be shipped through Amazon due to Central Bank regulations. Some of these items include:

  •   Mobile phones
  •    TVs
  •    Refrigerators
  •    Monitors
  •    Perfumes
  •    A/C units
  •    Footwear
  •   Batteries
  •   Liquids

Most popular Amazon products ordered to Sri Lanka through Kapruka Global Shop include computers, computer accessories and spare parts. Reason for this? When you order a laptop from Amazon you avoid the middle man or the agent in Sri Lanka who will keep a hefty margin on the product. Also, some models are not available in the Sri Lankan marketplace. Shopping through Amazon facilitated by Kapruka Global shop fills this void smartly.
