Importing from countries outside of US
Post 1 of 5

I am going to start purchasing lap tops and parts to export to Mexico. I want to know what is the safest method of payment when purchasing from countries outside of USA. Is there an a way such as an escrow process or something that money is put into an account and when the purchase arrives and approves the seller is paid? Thank you

To my knowledge for your product USA is still the cheapest for branded goods. If you want China brand then look for Asian supplier. Protection is very little so check out the supplier very carefully. Visit your supplier, do all your Due Dilligence

Well i don't think so if escrow would be of any help to you if you are gonna buy something from Asian country like China, you might consider opening L/C though it can not assure you would receive the goods you ordered however to some extent you would be secure in terms of making payment when goods have actually been shipped !!

eleeme-  All methods of payments including escrow  and  others, (open account, pre-payment, consignment, documentary collection and L/C) have unique risk associated with them. Specific method of payment is agreed by both parties based on the risk they want to take and including the value of transaction. Escrow for example, risk can be to the buyer because they buyer will pay for the goods but receive inferior product. I think you should focus building good relationship with your seller that way you will have less concern on which payment method to use.
