Hello,
Today I got my first sample package
I ordered from my supplier 10 samples of type A and 10 samples of type B.
So I made a quality check and opened every package and everything looks really good and works except one model of type B. (the cheaper type)
It has a little display and the display is totally broken.
I cant sell it thats for sure.
Somewhere I think it was Ecom man adviced that if something doesnt work anymore in the factory warrenty time he will eat the cost to not annoy his supplier.
I have no problem with eating the cost, cause the product is only 6$ but 1 of 20 samples isnt sellable. Should I tell my supplier and show them pictures of the broken product? It arrived at my place like that I didnt do anything with it.
Since I plan to let a fulfillment center sent my products out I will have a problem with quality control. When I ship it to myself I have to open and check 1000 packages (for the bigger order). Is this normal?
Its really important that NOT ONE of the products is already destroyed when I sent it to the customer. Ebay customers are pretty fast with opening a case at ebay or writing a bad review (amazon customers of cause too). When this happens my top seller status is gone and one of my advantages against my competition with it.
What would you do in my situation? Sorry if the question already got asked didnt yet read all of your and Ecom mans threads.
Thanks a lot.
