Why is the price gap so big?

The same 8mm Akoya pearl, perfectly round with very strong luster, may sell at a mall counter for a multiple of the source price 3-4 times.The markup comes from brand premiums, mall commissions (25-35%) and layers of distributor markups.

Live-stream prices fall in between, but there is"Filter Beautification"and"Impulse Buying"risk. Buying direct from the source is cheapest, but you need a trained eye.
