Oh, that explains why I’ve been seeing posts on Reddit about online sellers losing as much as 90% of their sales. When the BIR started taxing them, local sellers likely had to raise their prices to cover the additional costs. Meanwhile, foreign sellers, especially those from China, don’t pay taxes, so they can sell at much lower prices. As a result, they’re taking customers away from local sellers. Is that what he’s talking about?
Level playing field pero Philippines is also dominated by oligopoly. the more taxes, the worst off is the society... that's the irony. Isn't e-commerce proving value sa consumer for getting goods and services at a lower cost. Any foregone taxes is money spent by consumera on other stuff to benefit themselves.
may tax naman yan.. any container comming in as loose cargo labeled various items automatic pays the highiest shipping rate and the highiest tarriff pwera nalang kung missdeclared.. local ay imported din naman only wholesale.. means pagorder nila sa china mas mababa presyo the more the cheaper.. bawat bili ng buyyer online may delivery cost per shipping.. you would think mas mahal ang direct kasi may shpping at tax per item.. pero naging mas mura kesa local.. bakit kasi yung local practice nila is sell to middleman after middleman after middleman, pag dating sa consumer sobrang mahal na. yung nagbebenta online usually maliliit lang hindi naman sila required magbayad ng vat kaya wala ka nakikitang vat doon.. si shopee lazada nagbabayad yan ng vat as part of their comission on every sale made. pinapamahal nyo lang yung babayaran ng consumer. hindi naman fair kundi advantage yung gusto.. magbenta rin online. nagagawa kasi nila kahit anong presyo ibigay local kasi hindi nakikita ng buyer ang presyo ng item from other seller kaya meron pang himala duon.. sa online makakapili ka..
This guy is crying wolf just because another player went in. It is your fault that all these years you failed to innovate your business. Now you're proposing a solution that will ultimately affect the consumers (not really the competition). You think by doing that, consumers would rather choose you over the other? Nope. Your competition is edging you out not just because they have lower prices. It is because their business model allows consumers to save time and time is the ultimate currency.
Wag mo po i-combine ang total 1 trillion pesos e-commerce na lahat ay galing abroad thru customs. Karamihan dyan local sellers, na nagbabayad din ng tax.
Your salary gets taxed, then you buy products that's taxed and eat food.that's taxed. Then government has the audacity to print money, which is considered silent tax.

Exactly my thoughts.
Agri products are vat exempt but the point is well taken. Tama nga naman, unfair ang taxation ng pilipinas
Boomers love exessive taxes.
