    They did not specify from what port. When I asked for the shipping quote I did specify door to door but I need to double check that is what they are quoting. I know it's been said a bunch of times but Thank You So Much!

    Walter (or anyone), Have you ever used this sit before: http://www.exportbureau.com/ ? If so is it reputable or accurate? Right now I'm working on testing a 3rd and 4th product since the 1st two did not sell as well as I had hoped. These products are in different niches so I am looking at...

    Walter, I'm dealing with a few manufacturers at the moment since I am wanting to test a number of products. I'm requesting quantities of 100 units. For most of my products this is no problem. However I do have one where they just told me the MOQ is 2000pcs. This sounds a bit high to me. I...

    Hi Walter, Sorry if this has been posted before. What are your thoughts on getting a product made by a manufacturer in China? I have an idea for an improvement on a product which they already make. Is it worth the risk of them selling it to other sellers or should I just stick with a US...

    Walter, Thank you so much for looking into those manufacturers for me. This helps so much. I've actually been moving slower than I should because I was so unsure about so many of those manufacturers. Thank you!
