Joint foreign purchase. Terms and concepts of joint purchases. What is the "Skladchina" service?

One cannot but agree that the difficult economic situation in the country is forcing people directly involved in business to look for new ways of development, ways to stay afloat. From here, fresh, non-standard solutions emerge that no one has ever even thought about before. How do you, for example, like the idea of ​​joining together via the Internet in order to buy something by sharing or at a lower price than in retail? Today we’ll talk about the unique one that successfully implemented this idea.

What is the "Skladchina" service?

The online service "Skladchina" is a platform where people can unite with each other with a mutual interest in buying something at a good price. This could be food, household goods, children's products, etc.

The target audience of the service is both ordinary individuals and representatives of small and medium-sized businesses. Who would refuse to buy a product cheaper or at a good discount, right? :) And by the way, this is beneficial for both the seller and the buyer - after all, the difference between the cost of purchase and sale allows the entrepreneur to have cash flow. It is always more profitable for the seller to sell as large a volume of goods as possible, even at a good discount - in any case, he will always remain in the black. The golden rule of wholesale trade “more volume – lower price” has not yet been canceled. The benefit is mutual - everyone is happy :)

Moreover, such a purchasing mechanism is perfect for those entrepreneurs who are not yet focused on large wholesale orders or have a limited budget and want to buy a small batch of goods at a minimum price (for example, a trial batch). It also allows those businessmen who cannot do this in real life for obvious reasons to unite into a mutually beneficial tandem.

How does the joint shopping service work?

The creators themselves call their service “an online trading reduction of joint purchases.” All its participants influence the final cost of the product, and each buyer receives the product at the lowest price. To better understand this scheme, I recommend watching this video, after which everything becomes clear:

Let's take a closer look at the trading mechanism on the Skladchina service. So, the service puts up some product for sale - LOT. It, in turn, consists of BIDs - small wholesale lots, which represent the minimum order in a LOT. A LOT has a starting price at which it is put up for auction, and there is a final (finishing) price at which it is given to the buyer.

Each participant in the pool, buying his BID in the LOT, reduces the cost from start to finish. Thus, the more bidders, the lower the final cost of the goods. This is the meaning of a joint purchase or a chip-in purchase.

Bidding lasts from one to five days. If the LOT time has expired, then the goods are sold at the “Stop price”, i.e. the price at which the auction stopped.


For each product, depending on the entry point to it (through the Product Catalog, the “Active Sharings” menu, the “Inactive Sharings” menu, the “Veche” section) you can find out the following information:
  • Product description
  • How many requests were left by other users?
  • Starting and finishing cost
  • Are there any auctions for this item?
  • If there is no bidding, see if there are preliminary bids and how many there are, and also find out the preliminary start date of the pooling

For a product of interest, for which there is no bidding yet, you can leave your preliminary application, after which you will be regularly informed about the ongoing preparation of the pool for it.

Benefits of the service

We have already talked about the mutual benefit of the seller and the buyer above - we will not dwell on this. The great advantage of the service is its complete transparency of work and automation of all actions.

It is no secret that the principle of conscientious purchasing or chip-in purchases is not new, but in RuNet it is presented in almost gray schemes in the form of specialized groups on forums and social networks. Consent there occurs verbally, by mutual agreement, and its parties are not protected from deception or fraud.

There are also online services that are built on a very primitive system of “catalogue-organizers” and have many disadvantages, including the lack of automation of trading and the inability to achieve the truly lowest possible price for a product.

Our video about how the Skladchina service works:

4. To the organizer’s bank account

After the purchase has been completed, you must pay for the order (the organizer will change the purchase status to “Payment”, you will receive a written notification about this). Pay for your order only when payment for the purchase is announced, or if the organizer asked you to pay in advance (for example, in the case of a pre-order).

After payment you need to notify the organizer about this. To do this, go to “My Orders”, then follow the link “Specify payment information” and “Add payment”. The data you enter is saved automatically. After the purchase organizer receives your payment, he will confirm the payment and you will see in the “My Orders” section that your payment has been accepted.

4. How to receive an order

Each organizer has its own conditions for the delivery of your order, all of them are specified in the terms of purchase. The organizer must hold at least one meeting (usually some metro station is chosen for this - for those organizing from Moscow), and there is usually pick-up and courier delivery. Recently, more and more often our organizers are using pick-up points. We recommend that you familiarize yourself with the delivery terms in advance before placing your purchase order.
