Fur coats from Greece - buy cheaper!

In view of the fact that natural fur coats have become especially popular lately, I would like to pay special attention to fur coats from Greece. The fact is that this country is the most famous manufacturer of fur products in the whole world, and this despite the fact that it does not have a frosty climate at all. But for our compatriots, fur coats from Greece will be especially interesting for one unique feature - accessibility. Yes, it is the relatively low price with noticeably high quality that attracts many tourists to fur coat tours.

Many will be curious to know that Greece currently does not have its own furs. Raw materials for tailoring fur coats are purchased at North American auctions, and you can buy a good fur coat far from everywhere. There are only a few cities in Greece that can rightfully be called the main fur centers.

In the city of Athens, there are several shopping centers with fur coats at once, and many of them are located on the main tourist streets. But the peculiarity is that most of these fur coats are sewn in the same city of Kastoria, and the price for them in Athens is much more expensive. The high fee is explained by the tourist popularity of the Greek capital.

The small resort town of Paralia Katerinis does not have its own fur production, but there are more than a hundred shops with fur coats. Most of them are located on Nikis street.

It is worth considering that buying a fur coat not as part of a fur tour costs several hundred euros cheaper, and the attitude of sellers to an independent buyer is better. In order to take a look at the Greek range of fur coats without haste and choose the right model for yourself, it may take about a couple or three days.

Before you go to a Greek store for a purchase, you need to study in detail the information about how natural fur looks and which of its features are an indicator of quality and which are not.

Remember that for high-quality fur coats from Greece, the lining is loosely sewn to the skin, but only basted so that you can see the wrong side of the product. Unnecessarily fussy sellers who are trying to openly impose this or that model of a fur coat should also alert the buyer.

It is interesting that in Greece the quality of mink coats is confirmed by a special certificate. If such a certificate is attached to any particular model, you can be sure that you have purchased products of excellent quality.

There are several hundred fur factories in Greece, but only a few of them are really verified. The most famous now is a factory called Kafasis. It is located in the city of Kastoria and only Scandinavian skins are used in the production process. The products of this factory are so elite that even the Queen of Denmark chooses them.

Nitsa Furs and Nevris in Greece are in a special position. Manufacturers were able to enter the world market in a relatively short period of time, but consumers fell in love primarily for creativity. Brand products are distinguished by a very original design, but comfort during wearing is maintained. But there are three other brands that deserve special attention.

The company is located in the famous "fur" city of Kastoria and is engaged in the production of fur coats from astrakhan, mink, sable, lynx and other furs. The brand's products are of excellent quality, but the price for it is quite tolerable.

Another company from the fur empire of Kastoria, which produces fur products and sells them to Europe, America and Russia.For tailoring fur coats, brand manufacturers use lynx, sable, astrakhan, mink and fox furs.

This company is engaged in the production of mink coats of the highest quality, but their main feature is the shade. The light gray color of fur coats gives any look sophistication, elegance and charm.

But it is very difficult to say for sure about the cost of Greek fur coats. The price of each individual model depends on the quantity and quality of the fur used, as well as the shade and method of tailoring the fur coat. On average, the price of a medium-length whole mink fur coat varies between 2500 - 5000 euros. For exclusive models of fur coats from famous designers, you will have to pay a very tidy sum - from 30 to 40 thousand euros. But shortened coats are already much cheaper - from 2000 euros.

Fur coats made of astrakhan or raccoon in an elongated version will cost everyone 2,500 euros, and you will have to pay a little less for a sheepskin coat - 1,200 euros. Fur coats made of astrakhan are a little cheaper - an average of 1700 euros for short models and about 1900 for long ones.

But buying a fur coat in Greece is only half the battle, because it still needs to be freely transferred across the border at the airport. According to the Customs Code, items whose value does not exceed 1,000 euros can be transported across the border without paying a fee.If the value of your fur coat exceeds the allowable rate, you will have to declare and pay a duty in the amount of 30% of the excess value.

But judging by the reviews of the members of the forum, buying a fur coat in Greece really justifies itself. Forum users claim that in Greek stores the choice of fur products is huge, but it takes quite a lot of time to choose a quality model. Many note a noticeable increase in the price of fur products this year, which is associated with an increase in prices for auction skins. But if the modernity of the model is not particularly important to you, you can choose a fur coat from old stocks at a fairly attractive price.

The only negative is that it is not very convenient to get to shops with fur products. It is best to rent a car. In a couple of days, according to the members of the forum, you can travel around the top outlets and find a suitable fur coat model.
