Cheap plushies

Investor summaryNeutral

User is looking for advice on finding a cheap supplier for 125 plushies.

Post body

I recently saw a video of a plushie chair and I want to make them myself, that’s why I’m looking for a good supplier for plushies. I need (for now) 125 plushies (obviously more if they are really small). Does anyone have any advice?

for plushies, factories usually quote MOQs around 300-500 but if you pitch your 125 as a pilot order, you can often get a 50% reduction. avoid suppliers offering prices more than 30% below the market average, since that's usually a sign of factory seconds or reused materials. ask for real factory photos (not just catalog shots) and always get a sample made before committing to bulk, since plush quality can vary a lot between sample and production.

on my end, my AI sourcing agent SAM pulls from 40k+ chinese suppliers across 120+ categories and cross-checks business registries to help spot legit players fast. you can see how it works at agenceocto.com.

Regarding plush toys, pay attention to whether there is copyright, and also whether they can be packed in a compressed manner.

If you need this product, if it is produced in mainland China, I can help you purchase it and ship it to you. You just need to provide me with your budget and product images. I can purchase from different manufacturers and then send multiple samples to you. dm me if you need

Probably easier to just buy on Aliexpress and negotiate with a seller.
