Indicative prices

China sourcing agent fees: indicative prices by service.

The amounts shown are reference prices to help you estimate costs. Each project is quoted according to volume, number of suppliers, difficulty, travel, purchasing frequency and the actual work required. A simple case may cost less, while a particularly complex one may exceed these references. Regular clients may receive special terms on certain services.

PRICES ADAPTED TO EACH OPERATION
Not every project costs the same.

These China sourcing agent fees are an initial reference. A straightforward purchase from one supplier does not require the same work as an operation involving several factories, many references, travel or special controls. That is why we confirm the price after reviewing the case.

Regular clients.

When we work together on a recurring basis, we can apply special terms to certain services, especially once we already know the suppliers, products and working method.

Receiving and shipping policy.

The €59 service is intended for legitimate purchases from Chinese platforms.

We may reject goods before dispatch if we consider there is a reasonable risk for transport, customs or the recipient.

How to read the prices

How China sourcing agent fees work.

First, amounts marked “from” apply to straightforward operations within the stated scope. The final quote is confirmed after reviewing the product, location and work required.

What “from” means

The price shown is the starting point for a standard service. If the project requires more time, exceptional travel or a more extensive technical review, a specific quote is prepared before work starts.

What changes the quote

The main factors are the number of suppliers, references, location, urgency and complexity. A recurring operation is also usually more efficient than a first purchase involving many new suppliers.

Terms for regular clients

Once we know your operation, products and suppliers, we can reduce repeated work. For that reason, regular clients may receive special terms on certain services adapted to their volume and purchasing frequency.
