More and more foreign luxury brands are starting to make price adjustments of their products in China to compete for market share, as the new consumption trend of buying these goods online or during oversea trips continues to grow, People's Daily reports.

《人民日报》报道，越来越多的外国奢侈品品牌开始对中国市场的产品做出价格调整以争夺市场份额，因为新的消费趋势显示中国消费者网购或者国外旅行购买奢侈品的趋势正在持续增长。

Chanel that increased its price in China by 15 percent over five years has been the first to announce that it will be reducing its price in the country by 20 percent. In the European market, Chanel is increasing its price by 20 percent, shortening the price gap to 5 percent.

In regards to the price gap, the customs authority has claimed many times that the tariff of imported goods is only around 10 percent. Many people were dubious about it due to the much higher price of international goods in China.

Chanel's price adjustment has unintentionally helped prove the argument of the customs authority that the original pricing set by cross-national companies is the reason behind the big price gap domestical and abroad.

It's fair to say that these companies are forced to make price adjustments to cater to the market trend. If people can't get reasonable prices at home here in China then they will go abroad. Furthermore, with online shopping becoming increasingly popular, the price of international luxury goods could continue to change.

It can therefore be said that this price adjustment is just a beginning. More international companies with world-class brands will began to re-fix their price in order to meet the trend.
