Hey Beauties!

I've been watching a few videos from YouTube where people evidence off their TJ Maxx and Marshalls hauls recently, but I came across one that alarmed me since information technology claimed that TJ Maxx was selling simulated makeup.

Afterwards beingness an avid shopper at TJ Maxx and Marshalls for years now, I've never come up across any fake makeup while shopping there. In fact, it is extremely illegal to sell any for of false or knock off products.IMG_4276

Selling fake or knock off products are an infringement of the original brand or company's trademark laws of the federal government. Even if information technology was stated that the products were fake, admitting that the products are simulated are a legal class of your ceremonious, and even maybe criminal, wrongdoings that can be brought into courtroom.

At the very to the lowest degree, a huge company similar TJ Maxx or Marshalls wouldn't risk their reputation and sales just to make a few dollars off of false knockoffs.

Then, this really brings about the question, how do they actually get these products and how can they sell these for such cheap prices?

From talking to a few of the employees from TJX, it'south been revealed that the bulk of the products come from different companies who have either bought too much or made as well much stock, rebranded or repackaged their products, or simply needed to go rid of their backlog items when they're post season.

Sometimes, companies similar Anastasia Beverly Hills or Sephora will overbuy products or make style more product than they can sell, so to avoid wasting whatever turn a profit and materials spent on the products, they sell them to buyers at TJX.IMG_4271

These buyers are instructed not to reveal whatever companies or brands that they are purchasing these products from and they tin can't reveal any information such as how much they bought the bulk items for, who they bought from, or how much they're going to sell information technology for. This keeps the prices low since no store will ever actually know what they're getting and customers won't be able to shop by brand.

Brands like Ole Henrickson and Kat Von D accept likewise been going through a lot of repackaging and rebranding so their products get sold to TJ Maxx and Marshalls so that all of the old packaging can exist taken off of the current shelves and be replaced with the new branding.

Likewise, with everything from the holidays going on clearance, the vacation packaging and the gift sets are going on sale to make room for everything else that's coming in. Nearly of the items from the holidays or even just vesture that is deemed as "mail-season" normally gets sold to TJ Maxx so that stores tin can clear out their inventory and continue current on trends. TJ Maxx is and so able to sell those items for cheaper because they're past flavor.IMG_3097

One main thing to remember with TJ Maxx and Marshalls is that most of their "compare at" prices are based on the clearance prices from the original brands. This ensures that no matter what y'all're buying, you tin can know that yous're getting an amazing deal on the items considering the TJ Maxx and Marshalls prices tend to be lower than the original company or make'due south clearance prices.
