Today’s Burning Question – Are Weylandts Using Private Jets To Bring In Their Furniture?

We understand supply and demand and we get that big business makes a profit. But when a locally available product is being sold for almost double the price at Weylandts, one must ask the question.

How exactly are they getting their stuff in?

Take this Malawi Chair for example – advertised at Weylandts (here) for R1,995.

But then we see the exact same product available at Malawi Cane online shop (here) for R1,045.

That’s a ball-hair short of double the price. How is that possible?

After some discussion here at 2oceansvibe HQ, we decided the only way to make it possible would be to make use of private jets. Like this Learjet 45 below. That should provide enough expense to justify the margin these guys must be slapping on their products.

Well done, Weylandts, for doing it in style!
