I'm looking to import from china on afforable rates
User complains about high shipping costs on Alibaba for small orders and seeks advice on finding reliable agents.
- High shipping costs on the platform make small-batch imports economically unviable.
- Difficulty in finding reliable agents and connecting directly with sellers hurts user experience.
I tried Alibaba, DHgate and even buyandship to import from Aliexpress but shipping is costing more than the product itself and the overall price comes to something which doesnt make sense, im looking for samples and small quanities to check quality as im starting a business and not decided on final packaging, later i would want large quantity when I finalzie everything.
I'm not sure where to find realiable agent its difficult to trust anyone online.
How can i connect with sellers directly?
How can I import these type of products from china in small quanities,
Type of products im looking for are-
- Packaging boxes which looks premium
- PVC Gift Bags (this I would need of different sizes (around 3, 5, 8 inches)
- Glass and other good jwellery materials, antitarnish chains
Open to discussion and advices
Could you tell me the specific country? I can work out the costs for you.
DM me directly
I work with suppliers in Wuhan and Shenzhen. I can also assist with logistics to your country.
Just purchase the ready - made products. There is no MOQ. It's normal that the freight is more expensive than the product cost, because these plastic containers are lightweight goods.
I'm looking for ready made products but the question is, from where?
You already have product pictures. Use the pictures to search on Alibaba. Need more help can DM
These pictures are from those websites itself, Im looking to import at chepaer rates, If the shipping is more than the product it doesnt work for me.
