Find out why importing action figures is a highly profitable world with a vast product line
Reading Guide
Action Figures, which in its literal translation means Action Figures, are in their original concept, figures from cartoons and comics action stories. They are collectible items of characters from comics, series, movies, and even games. They can be small fixed statues or with joints. Many of us in our childhoods had the phase of watching cartoons, reading action comics, and this routine made us grow up next to these characters that we never got tired of seeing.
The first company to exploit this market was Hasbro, then hundreds and thousands appeared, and it just keeps growing. This movement has quickly spread around the world and has taken over toy store shelves and virtual store windows in an unbelievable way, and we can observe the growth of this culture in the market in general, expressed through conventions around the world where comic books, new and old dolls of every imaginable size, thematic performances, electronic game releases, etc. are presented.
This introduction only demonstrates a small part of what this culture represents for fans of all ages. And a large part of the largest companies and stores of this type of product are located in the United States! We venture to say that this category of products is among the most present in ViajaBox‘s shipments, and every day there are more and more boxes of new customers entering this branch of action figures.
One of the great advantages of importing action figures is the size of many of these items. For you have the option to work with dolls and other types of items in sizes that provide cheap and discreet shipping. This helps the importer to pay a lower tax and often to receive orders without any tax at all. Because even if you have dozens or hundreds of products in your account ViajaBoxYou can send as many items as you want in each box, to pay for cheap shipping, and also so that the total cost of the contents of the box does not exceed fifty dollars, which is the limit for importing without being taxed.
In this way, many people have built an empire selling action figures of and various products that are also part of this niche. And we have observed this phenomenon more and more frequently, and we believe that this is due to the great diversity of action figures on American websites. And although these products can already be found on websites all over the world, there is no way to compete with the American market, because besides being the country where several novelties are launched, it is also there that we will find an excellent quantity and diversity of used items, spare parts, toys of all kinds, maintenance accessories such as tools and specific paints to revitalize items in general.
eBay: Your Best Choice
to import old Action Figures
As most importers already know, eBay is an excellent site for finding antique loose items and in many cases, entire collections. And if you already import action figures, take the time to research old items on this site and you will see your customer base increase overnight. And once you realize how lucrative antiques can be, they can become your main import target, because besides being very desirable and sought-after items, many of these items are considered relics because of their scarcity and historical importance in that culture.
Factors like this make old products more expensive even than new items depending on the item and its age and condition (which matters less). And the guarantee of sale is practically certain, because few people will own a copy of a certain item, and you will be one of them. Orders from old will also be able to come in more and more frequently as you will already be seen as an efficient and reliable importer.
