@Jingsourcing 4 года назад

Very appreciated. I also see there are many gurus on internet teaching outdated, unpractical, textbook style knowledges about China sourcing, which don't worth that much cost or time to watch. That's why I decide to make videos, to help people understand the whole trading process in an simple way.

@Ai-sq4de 3 года назад

I've literally watched hundreds of videos of people who pretended to be gurus on e-commerce but they all withhold the most important information to succeed in online business. After watching your videos, I'm glad I didn't give up on finding the right one. I know there's someone out there who's willing to help other people succeed in life without taking advantage of them. Thank you Jingsourcing.

Just to confirm FOB ( free on board ) means the supplier is liable until your product is moved over the ships rail or past the airplane hatch. CIF ( cost insurance and freight ) means the supplier is liable until 60 days after shipping or unloaded into your warehouse which ever is first

@ing1018 4 года назад

Thank you so much for this information! I have a question about shipping cost , how do you negotiate ? I have only ordered samples so far but some have been quoting $30-60 .... some suppliers would even say that if there is a liquid eg: cosmetics products , it even goes more up! How do you bargain shipping so that you don’t get ripped off . (From Canada ). Thank you again for these videos

@Jingsourcing 4 года назад

Hi, Louange. It's a good question. Samples are shipped by courier service like FedEX or DHL, which cost minimum $20 for shipping even a piece of paper to US. The price also depends or how much FedEX/DHL discount does your supplier have, which means the price could be even more expensive. Courier shipping for less than 20kg cargos is that expensive, and you only go good price when the shipping weight is over than 50kg. Articles with liquid, battery, powders are offically banned for air shipping. There are some special ways for some courier agent company to ship them. That's way shipping cost for those articles are expensive.

@Jingsourcing 4 года назад

All limited products or services are expensive.

@Jingsourcing 4 года назад

Hi Jessica, some suppliers may quote very low price but they may hide other costs, such as shipping cost, tax, customs clearance, etc. So when you place an order to the supplier, you should ask what has been included in the price .

Hi. Thanks for the comment. It's a very wide question to answer, but just get my conclusion. For air shipping, you'd better to ship over than 100kg. For sea shipping, you'd better to ship over than 2CBM. Then you will get reasonable shipping cost.
