Still not sure how to buy from China or how our featured products / custom sourcing works? Start here. If your question isn't covered, our native-speaking team replies within 24 hours.
If this is your first time buying from China, these 6 questions cover everything you need to know.
Great question — and important. We are not a manufacturer. We are a product distributor + custom sourcing agent based in Zhengzhou, Henan, China. This means two ways to work with us:
Why this is a GOOD thing for you: Because we don't own a factory, we never force you to buy "our" goods or hide bad quality to protect our margin. We work for you, not the factory.
Our lowest order value is $500 USD. Per-SKU MOQ depends on the product:
| Category | Typical MOQ | Sample Available? |
|---|---|---|
| Diamond Saw Blade | 500 pcs | ✓ Yes (sample cost refunded on bulk) |
| Drill Bit Kit | 300 sets | ✓ Yes |
| Makeup Brush 10-Set | 500 sets (OEM) | ✓ Yes (stock color) |
| Human Hair Extension | 50 bundles | ✓ Yes (1 bundle sample) |
| LED Headlight Pair | 100 pairs | ✓ Yes (2 pairs sample) |
| Silicone Kitchen Set | 500 sets | ✓ Yes |
| Camping Folding Chair | 200 pcs | ✓ Yes |
| Custom Sourcing (any product) | $500 total order value — can mix 5+ SKUs via LCL | |
Smaller than $500? We still recommend going ahead with a sample / trial order. Message us on WhatsApp or email and we'll find a solution (e.g. combine with other buyers' LCL consolidation).
Standard payment term = 30% deposit + 70% balance after you pass our Pre-Shipment QC report. You never pay 100% up front.
These are the three most common Incoterms (international trade terms). Use this table to decide what works for your country's import setup:
| Incoterm | Who Pays Freight to Port | Who Pays Insurance / Sea Freight | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| EXW (Ex-Works) | You (we just hand over at factory gate) | You | Rare. Only if you have a dedicated freight forwarder in China you already work with. |
| FOB (Free on Board) ⭐ Recommended for most | We (delivery to ship on board) | You (choose your own forwarder) | Best cost control. You pick the sea/air line and can compare freight quotes. |
| CIF (Cost + Insurance + Freight) | We | We (includes basic cargo insurance) | Convenient one-price-all for first-timers, but you lose visibility into freight cost breakdown. |
| DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) | We | We + import duty at destination | Door-to-door all-in. Limited to specific countries where we have clearance partners (ask for coverage for your city). |
New buyer rule of thumb: Start with FOB Shanghai / Qingdao. Our quote will include everything up to the ship on board, and we'll send 3 freight forwarder quotes for your sea leg so you have full control.
A typical first-time order (1x20' container, mixed featured products or custom sourcing) takes 4–8 weeks from payment to departure, plus the international shipping leg. Stage breakdown:
Send list, get featured-sheet or 3-factory comparison quote.
Courier via DHL / FedEx / SF to your address. Sample cost is refundable on bulk order ≥ MOQ.
Stock products (some featured SKUs) ship in 7–10 days. OEM / made-to-order takes 15–30 days.
We send the FQC report, you pay 70% balance, we load container and issue full documents.
Sea: 14–38 days depending on destination · Rail (Zhengzhou → RU/CIS): 12–18 days · Air: 5–10 days · Express: 3–5 days.
We answer document questions, assist with clearance, and handle 30-day defect claims if any.
All documents are emailed within 3 working days of vessel departure (or faster for air/rail). Standard package includes 7 documents:
Questions about buying from our 18 featured SKUs, adding your logo, or requesting custom colors and packaging.
A mix. Each product card on the Products page shows an "In Stock" or "OEM OK" tag — here's what it means:
Raw materials or semi-finished stock held by partner factories. Can ship fast (great for trial orders or re-stock). Private label packaging + logo print still possible within the same lead time.
Custom colors, custom hair length, custom handle engraving, custom packaging. MOQ is slightly higher for full OEM (see table in Q2). End product is 100% your brand.
Pro tip for new brands: Place a small MOQ order for "In Stock + Private label packaging" first. Sell through once, confirm market fit, then scale to a full OEM run with fully custom specs.
Absolutely — this is one of our most requested services. Private label is available for all 18 featured products, and we handle the whole process end-to-end:
Yes. Sample rules are simple:
Save on sample shipping: tell us if you have an existing DHL / FedEx account number — we can ship on your account, no courier mark-up.
Great question — because we get this a lot. Here is exactly why our pricing is competitive:
Want to verify? Send us any Alibaba link for a comparable product — we'll give you a Ruikexing quote plus explain any quality difference (material, thickness, certification grade). No pressure, just facts.
Certifications are product-dependent. Below are the most common ones. Full test reports are available on request and sent with your Pre-Shipment QC package:
| Product Family | Standard Certifications | On-request (extra cost / lead time) |
|---|---|---|
| Diamond saw blades / grinding wheels | MPA, EN 13236, factory ISO 9001 | OSHA label (USA market), CE full test report |
| Makeup brushes, nail drill, skincare tools | ISO 22716 (GMPC), FDA food-contact silicone test, MSDS | EU cosmetic product notification (CPNP), Reach for bristle materials |
| Human hair products | Factory ISO 9001, SGS health & hygiene test | SGS hair-origin / virgin-hair declaration |
| LED car bulbs | CE (EMC+LVD), RoHS, IP68 test report | E-Mark R10 (EU vehicle), DOT (USA aftermarket) |
| Silicone kitchen utensils | FDA food contact, LFGB (EU), BPA-free test | Custom country-specific food-safety requirements |
| Outdoor camping chair | EN 581 (outdoor furniture), ISO 9001 | Flame-retardant fabric test, 150kg load-bearing test video |
Yes! That's exactly what our Custom Sourcing Agent service is for. The 18 featured SKUs are just the fast-dispatch list. Our actual sourcing network is 1000+ verified partner factories across China covering nearly every category you can think of.
Common custom-sourcing categories our clients request:
How the sourcing agent side works: fees, on-site quality control, shipping, and what happens if something goes wrong.
We keep pricing simple and fully transparent. Here is the standard fee schedule for custom sourcing projects (not featured products — featured products use the listed buy-it price with margin built in):
| Order Value (Total FOB) | Service Fee Model | What's Included |
|---|---|---|
| Above $50,000 USD (large / repeat orders) | 3% Service Fee on FOB value | 3-factory quote · 3-stage QC · LCL consolidation · all documents · order tracking |
| $10,000 – $50,000 USD (most first-time orders) | 5–6% Service Fee | Same as above. Exact % confirmed upfront in the PI, fixed — never goes up. |
| Below $10,000 USD (trial / small projects) | Flat fee $500 USD | Same level of service. A flat fee is more cost-effective for you than % at this size. |
Our Triple-Stage QC covers three separate checkpoints. Every stage produces a dated, photo-documented report sent to you within 24 hours:
Before production starts — within 24 hours of raw material delivery.
At 30% and 70% production completion — two unannounced on-site visits.
When goods are 100% finished, packed, and ready for container. AQL 2.5 standard.
How do you receive evidence? Each stage sends a PDF report via email — typically 20–60 photos per SKU + a short video clip on request. Everything is stored in a shared folder so you can audit later.
Yes — this is one of our biggest advantages over buying direct from a single factory. LCL (Less than Container Load) consolidation and multi-factory mixing are included in both featured product and custom sourcing orders.

This is the exact moment you need a real partner, not a disappearing factory. Our 30-day post-shipment defect claim process is simple and fair:
Email or WhatsApp: photos of the outer carton marks + inner unpacking + close-up of defect, with your claim quantity and what is wrong.
If the defect was present at loading and missed in our QC → Ruikexing + factory share responsibility.
We handle region-specific details so you don't have to. Below is a brief summary — for a live quote including these items, please contact our RU or ES native-language teams directly.
