Verify any supplier in six steps. Negotiate like you have boots on the ground. Move money without getting burned.
Five minutes to find a "factory." No verification because the salesperson seemed nice. 30–100% wired upfront. Then: a container of unsellable product — or nothing at all.
"I finally received my goods after 4 months and $12,000. Wrong material, wrong size, and the supplier's response was: 'same as before.' There was no before. It was my first order."
— a first-time importer, r/ecommerce (weekly occurrence)
Every chapter is built to be used, not read: checklists, tables, and copy-paste templates with annotated "why it works" notes.
