I recently found out that I bought two identical products from Coupang, but as you can see, the prices I paid for them are very different.
The price difference is huge. You can see that even though I bought other products in the same purchase history,
the price difference is several thousand won in just one day.
The manufacturer is the same and you can’t feel much difference when you use it, so why is there such a price difference?
It’s said to be because of Coupang’s price fluctuation system called dynamic pricing.
What is “Dynamic Pricing”?
A strategy to adjust the price of a product or service in real time Dynamic Pricing or Dynamic Pricing is a strategy to adjust the price of a product or service in real time.
It refers to a sales strategy that applies various prices to the same product or service by adjusting the price of the product or service according to market conditions.
Depending on the demand of people, when it’s popular, it’s cheap, and when it’s popular, it’s expensive,
so you can buy the same product at a higher price depending on when you buy it. But it’s a hassle to always check until the price goes down.
Download the app Paulsent from the App Store and share the product link on Coupang. You can check the graph to see if the product is currently more expensive than before.
If it is expensive now, you can set it to notify you at the price you want. When the lowest price notification comes,
you can go and buy it. Coupang is called an anti-scam app because its prices fluctuate so much.
It is already difficult because the prices are skyrocketing these days, so I hope this will help you a little with the expensive prices.
