  • Is a High Refund Strategy Always Effective?
    Is a High Refund Strategy Always Effective? Shueh-Chin Ting, Professor, Department of Education, National University of Tainan, Taiwan ABSTRACT Retailers often use a refund strategy to guarantee that their products are the lowest price. However, does a high refund strategy announced by retailers definitively help consumers to believe that their products have the lowest price? Hierarchical moderator regression analysis was used to examine the moderating effect of a retailer’s reputation on the relationship between refund size and the believability of the lowest price. The results indicate that refund size has no direct effect on the believability of the lowest price and the effect is moderated by a retailer’s reputation. For reputable retailers, refund size has a positive influence on the believability of the lowest price. For less reputable retailers, refund size has a negative influence on the believability of the lowest price. Prior studies neglected the importance of a retailer’s reputation in implementing refund strategies. This study has resolved this research gap. Keywords: believability of the lowest price, guarantee strategy, refund size, retailer’s reputation. INTRODUCTION Retailers often use low-price guarantees (LPGs) as a signal to attract consumers and increase sales. Consumers interpret LPGs as signals that a particular retailer is committed to low prices (Borges, and Babin, 2012). Price-matching guarantees (PMGs) are commonly used by retailers as promises to match the lowest price for an item that a customer can find elsewhere (Yuan and Krishna, 2011). Signaling theory has been used to understand the overall effect of a PMG on consumer perceptions (Borges, 2009).

    THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Required Report - public distribution Date: 9/1/2010 GAIN Report Number: HK0012 Hong Kong Food Service - Hotel Restaurant Institutional HRI Food Service Sector Approved By: Erich Kuss Prepared By: Chris Li Report Highlights: U.S. exports of high value food products and seafood to Hong Kong are expected to reach a record level at over US$2 billion in 2010, making it our 4th largest market for these products after Canada, Mexico and Japan. The global financial crisis did not have a significant impact on Hong Kong’s food & beverage imports and spending on food. Economic growth in Hong Kong is expected to be around 5% in 2010, benefitting from the continued economic growth in Mainland China. In addition, it is expected that Hong Kong will remain as one of the top 5 markets for U.S. consumer ready food products in 2011, continuing to be a major buying center and transshipment point for China and Southeast Asia. However, rents and wages are on the rise in Hong Kong and inflation may limit Hong Kong’s future economic growth. In addition, Mainland China is expected to take austerity measures to cool down its economy in late 2010 and 2011 and these measures could also impact Hong Kong’s economic growth. Even with lower economic growth, post expects that U.S. products will continue to fair well due to competitive prices and consumer confidence in the quality and safety of U.S.

  • When Is the Best Time to Go to Hong Kong?
    Page 1 of 98 Chris’ Copyrights @ 2011 When Is The Best Time To Go To Hong Kong? Winter Season (December - March) is the most relaxing and comfortable time to go to Hong Kong but besides the weather, there's little else to do since the "Sale Season" occurs during Summer. There are some sales during Christmas & Chinese New Year but 90% of the clothes are for winter. Hong Kong can get very foggy during winter, as such, visit to the Peak is a hit-or-miss affair. A foggy bird's eye view of HK isn't really nice. Summer Season (May - October) is similar to Manila's weather, very hot but moving around in Hong Kong can get extra uncomfortable because of the high humidity which gives the "sticky" feeling. Hong Kong's rainy season also falls on their summer, July & August has the highest rainfall count and the typhoons also arrive in these months. The Sale / Shopping Festival is from the start of July to the start of September. If the sky is clear, the view from the Peak is great. Avoid going to Hong Kong when there are large-scale exhibitions or ongoing tournaments like the Hong Kong Sevens Rugby Tournament because hotel prices will be significantly higher. CUSTOMS & DUTY FREE ALLOWANCES & RESTRICTIONS • Currency - No restrictions • Tobacco - 19 cigarettes or 1 cigar or 25 grams of other manufactured tobacco • Liquor - 1 bottle of wine or spirits • Perfume - 60ml of perfume & 250 ml of eau de toilette • Cameras - No restrictions • Film - Reasonable for personal use • Gifts - Reasonable amount • Agricultural Items - Refer to consulate Note: • If arriving from Macau, duty-free imports for Macau residents are limited to half the above cigarette, cigar & tobacco allowance • Aircraft crew & passengers in direct transit via Hong Kong are limited to 20 cigarettes or 57 grams of pipe tobacco.
