For anyone who thinks "I'd like to source from China but don't know where to start," here is the concrete flow of China import sourcing in 6 steps, so even first-timers won't get lost — from your first quote all the way to receiving the goods.

Step 1: Product research

1

Find the products you want to source

Search for the items you want to source on Chinese EC sites such as Taobao and 1688.

Key points: copy the product page URL in advance; check the selling price and shipping cost; look at sales track record and reviews.

Step 2: Request a quote from the proxy agent

2

Send the product URL to the agent

Send the URL of the product you found to the proxy agent and request a quote.

With allallbuy, just send the product URL via LINE, email or the contact form, and you'll receive a quote in English/Japanese.

Step 3: Confirm the quote and place the order

3

Review the quote and confirm the order

The quote includes the following: the product price, the service fee, an estimate of international shipping, and an estimate of customs duty. Once you confirm the contents look fine, the order is placed.

Step 4: Purchasing & inspection in China

Purchasing and inspection on the ground in China

The proxy agent receives the goods at its local warehouse in China and carries out inspection.

At allallbuy we send inspection photos in advance, so you don't have to worry about receiving defective goods.

Step 5: International shipping

International shipping to Japan

Once inspection is complete, we ship to Japan by air or sea freight.
