How PatBo started
This article is independent and not affiliated with PatBo. Trademarks belong to their respective owners. We are not an authorized dealer.
This is a short, independent history of PatBo. It is not a catalog, and Brazil Buying Agent does not speak for the brand.
Patricia Bonaldi founded PatBo in 2002. She learned to sew as a child in Uberlândia, later studied law, and then built eveningwear, with an atelier in that city and work in São Paulo. The clothes are known for fit and occasion dressing. A show photo does not reserve a gown. This article sets the scene. If a current piece can be bought for delivery inside Brazil, you still approve the USD total first.
From a Brazilian checkout to our warehouse
Many Brazilian sites expect a CPF tax number, a local card, PIX, a boleto bank slip, or a long installment plan. Those paths fail for a shopper abroad. Brazil Buying Agent pays the domestic checkout after you approve the USD lines. The seller ships to our warehouse in Brazil. We match the box to your order page. If a promo ends or a bundle changes, we stop and write the new total. We do not pay a higher cart in silence.
Prices you type, prices we write
Brazilian listings show BRL. Your order page shows USD. You keep the shelf number you saw. We keep the invoice, the service fee, and the later shipping bill in one currency you can approve. The fee rules are on pricing. The shipping calculator is a planning aid, not the bill. A PIX discount or an installment banner can vanish at a normal checkout. We rewrite the live total before you pay.
Shipping after we have the goods
Domestic delivery brings the purchase to our warehouse. International shipping starts when you approve the second stage. Weight and destination change the carrier price. We do not promise a fixed worldwide rate. The shipping calculator is a guide. Duties are yours to expect. Ask us to combine eligible goods from several sellers into one box. Fee rules are on pricing. You typed BRL. The shipping total we write is USD.
What we will not pretend
Brazil Buying Agent is an independent buying service. We are not the seller, and we do not rent you an address for parcels you bought yourself. If PatBo is out of stock or priced far above the BRL figure you typed, we say so on the order page before any charge. Holidays in Brazil slow couriers. We pass along the delay the retailer gives us. You can decline if the new timing does not work. We do not split your purchase into local installment banners. Totals stay in USD.
From the workshop story to a real purchase
History explains why shoppers look for PatBo in Brazil. It does not reserve stock. When you want a current piece, send the Brazilian product link or a boutique note. We check domestic availability, write USD item lines and the service fee, and ship after you approve both payment stages. See pricing and the shipping calculator. Enter the shelf price in BRL.

If you'd like us to buy something from a French store for you, send us the product links or details through the order form. We'll reply with the item cost in USD and our international shipping rate per kilo or pound to your country. If you like what you see, pay for the order and we'll start working on it. Not happy with the total? Just ignore it. You only pay if you want to go ahead. How to order explains the order process.
