If you are considering importing goods from China it is exciting and scary for many reasons.  For one, there is a language barrier which presents problems for sellers.  Mainly everyone is worried about payments.  How do I pay?  Can they be trusted?  etc.

The main difficulty is that most Chinese Wholesalers only accept Western Union and wire transfer payments.  They are not secure so you must be careful.  You should know, the only reason they use these methods is because these are the only payments available to the Chinese.  It is very hard to get a credit card in China because of government regulations.

Even though there are risks involved, you can minimize this risk by starting with a small shipment of goods.  You can gradually build your order over time.  To get around the language barrier, we always ask a new contact for their MSN or email address so you can ask them questions and get pictures of stock.  After you have a relationship, ask for a sample order.

Another concern many have is the quality of the products.  Most of the products from China are generic brands.  There are products that are in demand that are off brand like scooters, and generic electronics.  They do not have to be a brand name in order to sell. Off brands can be purchased at very good wholesale prices.

Remember always keep an open mind and research before you buy!
