Are the products guaranteed to be authentic?
TRDST purchases products exclusively from certified overseas official dealers, and therefore guarantees 100% authenticity.
Why is the price lower than typical retail?
TRDST pricing reflects a structurally different supply chain. Traditional retail pricing often includes showroom overhead, multiple layers of intermediaries, and region-specific markups.
TRDST sources through certified overseas official dealers and consolidates international logistics, customs procedures, and final delivery into one streamlined process—reducing layers that typically inflate retail pricing, while maintaining authenticity and premium handling standards.

- Sofas
- Tables

Items requiring special equipment, specialized construction, or wall drilling are excluded.

What is the 50/50 payment option?
The 50/50 payment option is a payment method designed for made-to-order products with long delivery timelines, allowing the total amount to be split into a deposit and a balance payment.
- You can place an order by paying 50% of the total price as a deposit, reducing the initial payment burden.
- Most of the deposit is used to place the actual order with the manufacturer, providing added assurance when purchasing high-value items.
- The remaining 50% balance must be paid before the product is shipped from overseas. You will be notified when the production completion date approaches.
- If the balance payment is delayed, the delivery timeline may be extended.
