Going back and forth to get a sample from one supplier:
They first wanted me to pay for the shipping with my DHL account (don't have but can set up), but I wanted them to pay for it and me pay them directly so I don't get hit with a surprise amount much higher than anticipated.
I wrote:
"I would prefer to just pay you directly for the shipping and have you pay for it. How can we please make that work?"
And they responded:
"We can pay the freight cost by our DHL Account No. But you should T/T the freight to us before transport. Please confirm if it is ok for you."
What does "you should T/T the freight to us" mean?!?
