Common Questions
About buying from China
Which platform should I use?
AliExpress for single items with no minimum order, Alibaba for wholesale in English, 1688 for the lowest prices (we handle the Chinese-language part), and Made-in-China for verified factories. Not sure — just send us what you're looking for.
Can I order just one item?
Yes, especially from AliExpress. Some Alibaba and 1688 suppliers have minimum order quantities, which we'll flag in your quote before you pay.
The listing is in Chinese — can you still help?
Yes. Most of our sourcing happens on 1688, which is Chinese-only. Just send us the link or a screenshot and we'll handle the rest.
Can I get a sample before ordering in bulk?
In most cases yes — tell us it's a sample order when you send the link, and we'll confirm with the supplier before paying.
How do I know the price I'm quoted is fair?
Your quote breaks down product cost, our service fee, and freight separately, so you can see exactly what you're paying for.
