Free Sourcing Check: an honest review
of your purchase in 48 hours

Q: Is this really free? Are there any strings attached?

Yes — completely free, no strings. After the review you can continue with us, or stop right there — no obligation either way. The point is to let you judge whether we know what we're doing at the lowest possible cost. Our business runs on long-term trust, not on hooking a customer once.

Q: Can I send just one quote? Will you review it even with limited info?

Yes. One quote is enough for a first-pass check — at least we can tell whether the price is roughly reasonable and whether there are red flags on the supplier. More complete information (target country, application, acceptance requirements) sharpens the advice. We'll ask for what we need.

Q: How long until I get feedback?

Standard quotes or sourcing lists are typically reviewed within 48 hours. Complex project-level BOMs (dozens to hundreds of items) or suppliers that need deeper investigation may take 3–5 days. When we receive your documents, we'll give you a time estimate so you're not left waiting.

Q: After the review, how do you charge?

For most sourcing orders, we quote one clear landed cost — already including sourcing, coordination, QC and logistics support, with no separate service fee. If you only need standalone advice, supplier verification or an alternative report, we quote a fixed fee upfront. Everything is written down before we begin. We tell you how we earn before we start.

Send us the quote, BOM or sourcing list you're working on, and we'll review it for free — whether the price is reasonable, whether the supplier is trustworthy, whether the models fit, and whether a cost-effective alternative exists. Feedback in 48 hours · no upfront fee · no hard sell.

Short Answer

If you're negotiating with a Chinese supplier — or currently sourcing locally and wondering whether buying from China is worth it — we'll review one quote or sourcing list for free and tell you whether the price is reasonable, whether the supplier is trustworthy, whether the models fit, and whether a cost-effective alternative exists. Feedback within 48 hours, no upfront fee, no hard sell.

WHO · WHO THIS IS FOR

If any of this sounds like you

You're already negotiating with a Chinese supplier — sourcing or working with them, and want someone who knows the field to vet the price, supplier and models.
You currently buy only locally — ABB, Schneider, Siemens, Omron etc. cost too much in your market, and you want to know how much sourcing direct from China could save.
You have a quote from a Chinese supplier but aren't sure — uncertain whether the supplier is genuine, whether the price is reasonable, or whether the lead time can be trusted.
You want to try an alternative but worry about risk — interested in switching to a Chinese or other international brand to cut cost, but lack a professional advisory channel.
Your volume isn't small, but doesn't justify a China team — annual purchases of USD 50k–3M; setting up your own office doesn't pay back, and relying on traders feels risky.

WHAT · WHAT WE LOOK AT

Five dimensions, one honest judgment

This isn't a token glance. We work through five dimensions and give you a straight call on each:

Dimension	How we assess it
Is the price reasonable?	We benchmark against real China-market sourcing prices and channel-tier pricing, and flag the quote as high, low or unusual. The same Schneider or ABB is often priced well below local prices in many countries.
Is the supplier reliable?	A first-pass check on company background, registration, product scope, quote logic and communication. Helps separate a real factory, a trader posing as one, and a shell company.
Do the models fit?	Whether the brand and model match your application, whether the parameters are sufficient, whether accessories are complete, and whether target-market certifications are in place. The wrong model is sometimes worse than paying 20% more.
Is there room for an alternative?	We identify which items must stay on the original brand and which can move to a more cost-effective equivalent in the same tier (international or Chinese).
Is it worth proceeding?	A clear recommendation: continue, proceed with caution, gather more information, or don't buy. We'd rather tell you "don't do this order" than let you walk into a trap.

What you send / what you get — simple

You send us: an RFQ, a BOM, a quote from a Chinese supplier, a sourcing list of models, or your current local prices — any one is enough to start. You get back: within 48 hours, an honest read — first-pass price assessment, supplier risk notes, model / selection risks, possible alternatives, expected saving range, and a recommended next step. A video call too, if you need one.

RISKS · WHY GET A SECOND LOOK FIRST

Without a check before payment, the traps you can hit

These traps a free check catches early

You're paying double without knowing: local distributor quotes vs the real China-market price often differ by more than 50%.
You're not buying from a real factory: traders posing as factories, shell companies, and three layers of middlemen.
The model doesn't fit the application: the spec looks fine on paper, but real operating conditions cause failures.
Counterfeit or refurbished: especially for international-brand "stock," "customs-cleared" or grey-channel goods.
Incomplete or fake certification: blocked at customs in your market, or rejected at customer acceptance.
You miss a real alternative: a cheaper option in the same tier exists, you don't know about it, and you overpay.

FAQ

Free sourcing check frequently asked

Q.01

Yes — completely free, no strings. After the review you can continue with us, or stop right there — no obligation either way. The point is to let you judge whether we know what we're doing at the lowest possible cost. Our business runs on long-term trust, not on hooking a customer once.

Yes. One quote is enough for a first-pass check — at least we can tell whether the price is roughly reasonable and whether there are red flags on the supplier. More complete information (target country, application, acceptance requirements) sharpens the advice. We'll ask for what we need.

Q.03

Will I get sales calls after the review?

No. The point is to judge whether the order is worth doing, where the risk is, and whether a better option exists. If it fits, we continue; if it doesn't, we'll say directly: "don't do this order this way." We won't push anything you don't need — wasting your time does us no good either.

Q.04

How long until I get feedback?

Standard quotes or sourcing lists are typically reviewed within 48 hours. Complex project-level BOMs (dozens to hundreds of items) or suppliers that need deeper investigation may take 3–5 days. When we receive your documents, we'll give you a time estimate so you're not left waiting.

If you only need standalone advice, supplier verification or an alternative report, we quote a fixed fee upfront. Everything is written down before we begin. We tell you how we earn before we start.

Q.06

If I send you a quote, could it be leaked?

No. We treat all customer documents as strictly confidential — that's not just a promise, it's the basic condition for this kind of business to keep going. If you'd like, we can sign an NDA before the review begins.
