Looking for advice on negotiating a textile product in China to be exported to the US. Was quoted $25 each item at 1000 units FOB. This price seemed high to start. What would be the average price reduction a buyer would counter offer?
Also for sample products would you still negotiate the price down and/or negotiate shipping fees?
Thank you for any help!
SCAMMER !!!!
BE CAREFUL!
Cld you adv which fty or trader offer that for you? I think they are not sure your sincerity if you do the business with them by the first time. Try more communication, or give your target price for their reference. Any query, pls free to tell us.

Thank you for any help!Just trust yourself feelings!If you can tell that they are sincere, i think it is ok. Or you can do some shopping around and compare then. You will get the answer and make your final decision.Good luck to you!
Hi , This is Aditya from India.
If you would like to buy something from China or India as regards of textile , you have to contact with EDS International Inc. Its a trading company and dealing into sourcing . They also have Inspection company named PROQC International.
I think if you will work with this company , you will get the good prices and also they can also do inspection on your request.
I hope , this will serve your purpose .
