China Wholesale - Don'T Have China Wholesale Sources? Now Is The Time To Start

If you're buying or selling electronics - especially online like on Ebay - you've probably noticed that the no.1 source of the hot-selling gadgets like digital cameras and mp3 players is China.

Don't think it's only the import experts who can buy from low-priced Chinese electronics factories and wholesalers. Actually, with the opening of the Chinese market in recent years, and growth of online wholesalers, you could be the next import profits success story!


1. Hottest Unseen Consumer Electronics And Gadgets

Sourcing directly from Chinese manufacturers and wholesalers gives you the best prices on the latest electronics. On top of this, you'll be able to buy and sell the newest designs before the retailers can move them to market.

2. Do Chinese Suppliers Speak English?

There's no need to worry about communication difficulties dealing with Chinese electronics exporters. Their whole businesses are geared towards selling to international businesses, so even though their staff's English may not be perfect, you'll be able to get the job done and form some great Chinese business connections.

3. What About Shipping The Goods From China?

If you are inexperienced in importing, shipping can seem a nightmare of jargon and expenses. But remember that your Chinese suppliers are trying to help you import their products, so they will be able to offer solutions for shipping any quantity of goods.

Large courier companies such as DHL, FedEx, and UPS are now operating in China too, so you can often use your courier account to get discount rates collecting goods from Chinese warehouses and shipping them straight to your door in a matter of days.

4. Buying In Bulk From China: A Risk?

In most manufacturing sectors in China, suppliers require a minimum order quantity (MOQ) for their products before the production process even starts. However, recently it's become much easier to order smaller quantities of electronics: wholesalers such as Chinavasion.com are the leaders in this field. You want one sample, you got it. You need 20 pieces for your online business? No problem! Online wholesalers are opening the electronics market for small to medium business like never before.

5. Can Chinese Suppliers Ship Direct To Your Customers?

The traditional trade triangle of wholesaler - retailer - customer has been revolutionized through the Internet. Now at last you can ship direct from China to your customers worldwide without touching the products. (Just in case profiting with Chinese Wholesalers wasn't a big enough opportunity already.)

6. How Do I Pay Them If They're In China?

The best way to ensure the lowest risk in your transactions is to use a third-party payment system such as EBay's Paypal. It's fast and easy for the Chinese supplier to receive payment, and the buyer is insured against non-delivery of the items.

If you choose to deal with large established Chinese wholesalers, you will usually have the option to pay by T/T (wire bank transfer), and as long as you are sure you are dealing with a reputable company this is a simple and convenient way to move money overseas.

Letters of Credit are the professional way to offer a guarantee to both the importer and the Chinese supplier, and large-scale ($10,000s +) importers should be getting advice from their banks about how to establish this payment system.

7. China Importing: What Are You Waiting For?

China is the factory of the world - and it will be for many years to come. 2007-2008 will be a crucial time for importers to get into the China market and form solid relationships with electronics suppliers. The consumer demand for new products is still strong in international markets, and Chinese prices are low while quality and service are increasing due to more competition between Chinese factories.
