I know people who have set up all kinds of ways to try to get around it but pay extra in fees to do so.
If you are ordering 12k at a time in product you have to pay Bank Transfer really no way aground it. CC charges for that amount to another country won't work. Especially China. If you do that you run the risk of getting F'D over as well as with WU.
If you are doing business like that you seriously have to trust the person you are dealing with and develop a relationship. Thankfully I now deal with people in the states. But god knows I lost several thousands of dollars in China to make tens of thousands of dollars. No risk, no reward as they say. The obstacles are what make getting products from there potentially so profitable. |
