Almost as if they didn't need the sale...

And when I mean "translator" get a FEMALE one.. and they will be your business partner IF you are SERIOUS with them such as you show them the money they will be loyal towards you.

Then you have her to go to the factory directly without you there, this will get the price cheaper as it is chinese to chinese and not foreigner. Believe me it helps that you know someone in china on a friendship level as they will help you, if you cannot do that why not save up and go on a chinese language course to Guangzhou, there you will be able to learn the language and culture and additional you can meet friends who are willing to help you in import export business. Do not go on the forum and and too much thinking and what if this or what if that.. just DO it. Life too short...

I am actually dealing with Chinese Manufacturers. IF you want you can PM anytime.
The problem with the Chinese you have to be on top of them. If your not you get ducked. Everything is long ass process in dealing with them. They will pull the wool over your eyes.
They are greedy. So you have to watch out. Do you pay them by paypal or what forms of payment.
Also see what you can buy from them. If the product does come damage file a CB on them. Higher prices equals higher level scrutiny.

Let me know Rambo3.

I take no prisoners when it comes to the Chinese. It sad, but if they cannot be reasoned with. Then I am sorry to say I take no prisoners.

Good insight. I was actually very close to a guy. He seemed so great and was so nice to me purely... for no reason

At least i hope....

I just don't understand. I've always liked working as a team. You scratch my back i scratch yours. you know... i guess it can't be like that here. Someone has to be on the bottom for a few to fit up top.

Best of luck to you Rambo! I'm going to be taking my own trip to do something similar to this in September. If I get any leads I'll pass them your way.

Well you have a guy, but the female are much more mental sharper in china than the men. Remember it is male dominated society and that is why there is a lot of rich women in china.. I mean alot, because of this aspect the "man" is the importance, so the women worker much harder and longer hours. You never going to get that thinking unless you have a relationship with them and that based on cash, that is how they think. good luck
