Another tip I had heard was after you filter the trade assurance and verified supplier, it is more cost-effective to choose a supplier in one of the 5 Provinces on the coast. The shipping will be less because they are closer to the shipping ports and you won't have to pay the cost it takes to truck it from the inland provinces. If that makes sense.

I was recently in the process of starting a candle company. I purchased 1,000 jars and lids from Alibaba for $2,660 and I got screwed BIG TIME! I only received 9 out of the 25 boxes I was supposed to get, 3 of those boxes, the jars were completely busted. The supplier will not reimburse me or send me new product to make up the difference. I also used trade assurance and that was no help either. At this point, I'm not even sure if I can afford to start my business. I'm so happy for the people who have purchased from there with success but for me, it's been a nightmare and my dream of owning my own business may now stay that way, just a dream. 😞

Hi Erica. First of all I would like to thank you so much for your videos they are extremely helpful. I am in the process of researching and sourcing samples on Alibaba, it's extremely time consuming and confusing. Could I be cheeky and ask you which company you bought from as you had a positive outcome, and also do you still purchase from them or did you find it wasn't worth it ? many thanks, Stephen Smith.
@alexfurey7642
@alexfurey7642 2 года назад
Thank you for this video. I'm so on the fence about Alibaba... I'm really concerned about the working condition for employees and impact on the environment to be shipping around the world. But when I've looked in to buying vessels domestically, wholesalers are just middle men selling a Chinese product anyways. The only local options I've found are essentially hand made and artisanal, which are through the roof expensive and difficult to mass produce :( I wish there were a solution somewhere in the middle.
@shaunalees1402
@shaunalees1402 2 года назад
I agree with you completely! Ordering locally in the US for me (I'm in Pennsylvania) is so ridiculously expensive that I can't afford the prices (3+ dollars a jar) when trying to start a business. I unfortunately need the cheaper, wholesale prices. I got screwed over big time using Alibaba. It's a shame when that happens.

I’ve had a really bad experience buying fragrance oils from one seller on Alibaba. The samples I tested were fine and the seller insisted I order 15 kgs of oil. I did that for USD 500. The oils I received had hardly any smell. When I disputed the order the trade assurance people just said that there’s nothing they can do except give me $200. They did not allow me to return my order either. So I would suggest pls be very careful before you buy on that platform. ❤️

Sea shipping doesn’t mean you need to pick it up at the port, can you imagine the queues? Shipping shouldn’t be expensive if you are doing it by sea. You use a freight forwarder to take it from port to your end destination.

The only thing I don't like is that you still have to pay for shipping for each product even if they ship in bulk. For instance, your product could cost you less than a dollar but the shipping is $10 per item. So to purchase the product by min. lets say 500 @ .50= $250.00, the shipping will be thousands of dollars. Shipping should NOT be that much and I can't locate how the supplier to see if that can be modified somehow. Especially, if the product doesn't weigh very much. Anybody have any thoughts on this? Thank you

The video could’ve been more helpful and informative if you would have addressed the shipping aspect, as that is critical to any purchase with Alibaba. Especially the fact that depending on the amount of the purchase/quantity the exporter fees can become astronomical. I also would not recommend giving my personal home address to any company with Alibaba. If I don’t use the post office I usually pick up my packages from my local postal center. People can also search RU-vid for videos that are more detailed in the step-by-step process from A-Z in ordering from Alibaba.

My advice to EVERYONE is start buying made in the USA. We need to stop making China rich while our country gets poorer. People need to start manufacturing things in America again. Yes, if you are under 30 years old, you may not have known this buy almost EVERYTHING was made here in the US. Big businesses started getting greedy and wanted cheap products, so they decided to turn to China. China is filthy rich now, but they are a communist country and treat their people like crap. Not cool. I love your videos, and this is just a general comment for another opinion about Alibaba! Plus, they typically make you purchase thousands in your order. Most if not all of Alibaba's manufacturers are from China. I would love to see someone including myself in America learn to make glass vessels or wicks or wax! I am sure people used to know how to manufacturer things in the US, but we have lost are knowledge, because we leave it all up to China for the most part. And, the biggest problem is if you don't buy from Alibaba, you will buy from other companies, who mark up what they had manufactured from a seller on Alibaba anyways, so it's really a sad thing that America is being forced to do!

Hi as I am getting more serious with my business I had a question regarding the legal side to making and selling candles. Would we need to obtain a sellers permit in order to legally sell candles? Or what are your thoughts on that ?Thank you so much. Your videos have saved me from my frustrations in the candle making process! 🤍

More than a sellers permit, you need a specified insurance since you are selling candles. If someone get burn or isn't careful and start a fire with your candles, you will be held responsible without a way to protect yourself. Please be careful!
