How to Select Suppliers From China

No matter you’re just planning to buy 10 pieces rear view monitor from China, or you are a experienced buyer who has an established business that sells good volumes through your existing sales channels, you can always find what you want here. But there are always some details you need to pay attention to when it comes to online trading.

When contacting the supplier, start by explaining your business and then request samples of the products you’re interested in. You’ll likely have to pay for shipping and the product, sometimes not (depends on suppliers), typically via wire transfer. In reviewing the samples, don’t forget to review the packaging and instructions in addition to the product itself. And remember, as the importer you are responsible for ensuring the 2 din car dvd you are importing meets all relevant regulations. Learn what these are, in part by asking suppliers that manufacture these products whether they’ve previously exported to your region and what certifications are required for that market. You can also go to your local big box retailer and see what certifications are on similar products.

Try to communicate frequently with the supplier about all details of the transaction – not just the product, but also lead times and manufacturing completion dates. If you’re new to importing, think of your first parking sensor order as a small initial order that helps you learn how to import from China, rather than an order that will make a profit.

Another thing you need to know is that transactions on ESPOW will always be risk free, because ESPOW will play the escrow role which is a deposit of funds by one party for the delivery to another party upon completion of a particular condition or event. It means ESPOW won’t release the payment to the supplier until the buyer confirms the delivery and is satisfied with the items.
