I purchased Prada sunnies from Myer as a birthday gift for my wife. Took a while for them to get shipped out. When i clicked on the provided tracking it shows me that the item is coming from China. Today it arrived in a sunglass hut box.
I am slightly confused, i am not a regular Myer customer. Is this normal?
Luxottica produces $3 sunglasses, adds a licensed brand label and sells them for $300 to mugs.
let people buy what they want brah. you don't have to call them mugs.
So is the every other fashion brand.
Was it sold by Myer or a Myer marketplace seller?
By Myer itself.
Is It Normal That a Myer Order Comes from China?
When Dan rejoins the Belt and Road Initiative, it will be common.
I would rather a Belt and Road Initiative than see the Libs do diddly squat.
How many IBAC enquires is Dan up to now for corruption? Is it 6 yet?
You spelt Matthew Guy wrong.
Myer outsource their sunglasses to Sunglass Hut - it's normal
anything not made in china nowadays ? even a lot of my mates friends wife are made in china
anything not made in china nowadays ?
vegemite.
what are you implying?
Just checked a few items from the Prada sunglasses range on the Myer website and none of them were available for click and collect or had stock in any of the Myer stores.
From my experience, this is generally a sign the product is being sent by a third party.
As mentioned by previous commenters, all Myer sunglasses are supplied by Sunglass Hut, who ship from China.
you bought some aliexpress knockoffs…! lol
we also ordered some Ray Bans from Myer and also noticed the dropshipping from China. If you google the address it the main factory in China.

There is a recipricol post arrangement between china and Aus. That means, if a company can get cheap enough shipping for the China leg of the journey, the rest is free.
Often they can get the chinese government to subsidize the postage.
For a company as big and shifty as Luxottica, its would be in their nature.
How long did it take to arrive?
Its not quite how it used to be. A few years ago, you could order small electronics parts from China for 99c shipped.
Now you order a bunch at a time to save on postage. Though untracked slow post is still possible on small items for maybe $3.
Google Luxottica.
Luxottica own Prada
Luxottica own sunglass hut
Myer is probably just dropshipping from Luxottica to reduce handling costs.
