Avoiding Pitfalls in Agarwood E-commerce: Decoding Common Livestream Sales Pitches

Live streaming sales of agarwood are full of traps. This article decodes common sales pitches and provides practical tips to help you shop wisely.

Common Livestream Sales Pitches for Agarwood

In livestreams, hosts often use phrases like 'family, today's special offer', 'only one piece', 'miss it and it's gone' to create urgency and induce impulse buying. In reality, these agarwood products may be of poor quality or from unknown sources. Consumers should stay rational and not be carried away by the atmosphere. It is advisable to first learn the basics from the Agarwood Encyclopedia before making a purchase.

Decoding Pitches and Countermeasures

1. 'Sinking grade' pitch: Hosts often claim agarwood sinks in water, but it may be faked by high-pressure oil injection or dyeing. Genuine sinking agarwood is rare and expensive; learn identification methods from the Identification Pillar Page. 2. 'Wild old material' pitch: Wild agarwood resources are depleted; most 'wild old material' in livestreams is plantation or fake. 3. 'Kyara' pitch: Kyara is the top grade of agarwood with high prices; low-priced kyara in livestreams is mostly fake. Refer to the Kyara Pillar Page for characteristics. 4. 'Medicinal agarwood' pitch: Claims of medicinal effects are often false; ordinary agarwood has no special efficacy and may involve false advertising. 5. 'Live bargaining' pitch: Hosts and merchants act in collusion to create a 'bargain' illusion, but the actual price is still inflated.
