I don't believe that a large proportion of phones sold by Best Buy have a 50℅ retail markup. If that were the case, you'd expect those models' effective retail prices in China to be ~70℅ of the US retail prices. But they aren't. Brand-name mobile phones retail for roughly the same price in China as they do in the US. (With the exception of iPhones, which are about 20℅ more expensive in China than in the US). I suspect that Best Buy makes insignificant margins on most cellphones, but makes it up on accessories (and I guess they sell carrier plans as well?). |
