Yap he desreved a madal from me🤩🤩
New subscriber. Thanks.
What brought me here? I was tired of watching those "Free web seminars" that at the very end ask you for $2,000. Thank you for being so informative. You've earned those likes and subscriptions 👍
Very appreciated. I also see there are many gurus on internet teaching outdated, unpractical, textbook style knowledges about China sourcing, which don't worth that much cost or time to watch. That's why I decide to make videos, to help people understand the whole trading process in an simple way.
as a beginner of this industry, it help me a lot with your information. it was easy to understand every detailed you provide. thanks man.
I've literally watched hundreds of videos of people who pretended to be gurus on e-commerce but they all withhold the most important information to succeed in online business. After watching your videos, I'm glad I didn't give up on finding the right one. I know there's someone out there who's willing to help other people succeed in life without taking advantage of them. Thank you Jingsourcing.
very appreciated for your comment. thank you so much. my next video will be published soon, which is about how to ship product from China. I promise this will be the best one in the whole UA-cam to explain this topic.
Smashed that subscribe button! Wow I cannot tell you how much this video means to me. I have wanted to buy products overseas for my business for over a decade but the entire process seemed so dangerous and difficult. I really feel like you’ve demystified so many of my questions and this is worth it for me to pursue further. I will watch your other videos. What you are doing is really tremendous, for those of us without connections or a mentor we literally have no where to start and you just helped me start!
TRUTH... THANKS
Truly appreciate your genuine assistance. More power to you and your company!
This is the best video I have found on buying on Alibaba and learned valuable things even though I have sourced there for about 6 years, thank you very much for the video!!
Genious ,generous and got a big heart to share all this million dollars informations to help mankind... U are an angel
This man is absolutely amazing!! Everything is so clear! Thank you so much!!
AMAZING video. 1st video I've seen that covers everything in great detail.
Just to confirm FOB ( free on board ) means the supplier is liable until your product is moved over the ships rail or past the airplane hatch. CIF ( cost insurance and freight ) means the supplier is liable until 60 days after shipping or unloaded into your warehouse which ever is first
This is a great video. Thanks so much for posting Jingsourcing!

Thank you for the comment. You can check more videos in my channel to discover more valuable information.
WOW im so empress with this honest man. Thanks a lot for sharing
Thank you for the clear video! I am looking to get stuff made and this was extremely helpful! Subscribed!
First time clicking into your video, very helpful! Thank you for sharing. One question that came up for me was whether if Alibaba allows a one time buy in bulk?
Especially the info that there are services you can hire to inspect your order for you! I had no idea that was such a thing, and that’s super exciting. I think my main question is, how do you avoid confusion with language barrier? Do these businesses usually have someone working with them that is proficient in English?
Thank you...this is informative..I spent the whole month trying to order from Alibaba
You are the best for everything you said today ... lots of things to learn for me i feel now ... 30 minutes before i thought i know everything and was placing order but now i see i am very far ... thanks fr yr nice video ...
Hi, great video! Thank you for all of this awesome informations. How do we get a lower shipping/freight cost. It's killing me!
Thank you Jing! This is a great tutorial!
hi can i get your watsap contact
thank you so so very much...u have brought me great clarity on these subjects!!
This is very helpful. I’ve actually purchase some items from alibaba 15 years ago. Now I’m going back. Had some bad experience with AliExpress
Luckily, I were from procurement background and I can easily understood all Jing has shared. Keep it up.
@allen sim, since you have procurement background. I would like to ask the shipping fee of laptop from china. About 3-4kg?
First off I just want to say amazing video you did a great job explaining everything. but I'm having trouble finding which provinces the suppliers are from on Alibaba like you did at 12:54
Thank you Parm, there are three buttons on the upper left side of the page: "all products", "customization" and "ready to ship", you can click "customization", click "supplier country/region", and choose China, then it comes out the dropdown list of industrial cluster.
Great, this videos really helps me lot, thanks a lot man, best and structured video I found on UA-cam about this topic!!!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge, you are a great person!

I've seen quite a lot of videos on Alibaba suppliers and this video is by far the best and most detailed, straightforward one. Well done! One question to ask, I tried searching for the industrial cluster of the product that I'm interested in [video time at 12:57] but I can't find that dropdown list in Alibaba, may I know where can i find that list ? Thank you!
Thank you subtleday, there are three buttons on the upper left side of the page: "all products", "customization" and "ready to ship", you can click "customization", click "supplier country/region", and choose "China", then it comes out the dropdown list of industrial cluster.

Thank you, Jing! This video is very helpful. I just want to let you know that in the subtitles, your website is spelled incorrectly. This happens in the last few seconds of the video. (jingsouricng instead of jingsourcing).
Very appreciated for that. 😀
Bro it's a typo.
Please buy from Ebay only as I sell there.

Hello thank you for this productive video. How has the Corona virus affected shipments and Suppliers?
Thanks for your support, we have made a video about Corona virus:ua-cam.com/video/9UDhdjxmizA/v-deo.html
In this video you can know much about how has the Corona virus affected shipments and suppliers.
Thank you so much for this information! I have a question about shipping cost , how do you negotiate ? I have only ordered samples so far but some have been quoting $30-60 .... some suppliers would even say that if there is a liquid eg: cosmetics products , it even goes more up! How do you bargain shipping so that you don’t get ripped off . (From Canada ). Thank you again for these videos
Hi, Louange. It's a good question. Samples are shipped by courier service like FedEX or DHL, which cost minimum $20 for shipping even a piece of paper to US. The price also depends or how much FedEX/DHL discount does your supplier have, which means the price could be even more expensive.
Courier shipping for less than 20kg cargos is that expensive, and you only go good price when the shipping weight is over than 50kg. Articles with liquid, battery, powders are offically banned for air shipping. There are some special ways for some courier agent company to ship them. That's way shipping cost for those articles are expensive.
All limited products or services are expensive.
@@Jingsourcing I had the same problem; I was trying to buy app. 200$ worth of product but I was instantly discouraged when I saw the shipping fees was the double and sometimes the triple of the price I was paying for. I'm not very comfortable with paying 600$ shipping fees for 200$ worth of products that's just too much at this point I don't know how to bring products into my store anymore it really sucks; to top it all that is in USD and I live in Canada so it's even more money I'm paying
@@QweenTheOne did u figure it out?
@@freigombert Not at all, I started looking elsewhere for my sourcing; the shipping fees are just too expensive and it won't change anytime soon
I do not subscribe always because It is a matter of excitement and it really helps me. You got me there! . Thanks a lot! You're the man!

I cam to this video because I was trying to buy gym equipment to make a gym at my house for very cheap. Good thing I watched this video I will go back to amazon😅
don't buy anything from aliexpress. I ordered 2 items on Sept 6, 2020. But they sent fake tracking number to me and I get nothing up to now. Their customer service always let me wait for 7 days and another 7 days..... I don't know when or whether I can receive my items.
@@chiwchuwhuang806 open a dispute, explain and get your money back.
@@postduif4725 They don't have dispute for this item. 5 customer services chatted with me. They promised opening dispute but nothing happens. I emailed to them and they promised but nothing happens. They just let me wait another 7 days. I ordered on sept 6, 2020. I don't know whether I can receive anything and I don't know when I can receive my items. Now I often send email to them ask "how many 7 days do I still need to wait?". No one responds to me now.
the website is aliexpress
im from the Philippines. is there any hidden charges if i order through alibaba? the supplier said that the shipping fee is include.
sorry im not fluent in english. please help me
Hi Jessica, some suppliers may quote very low price but they may hide other costs, such as shipping cost, tax, customs clearance, etc. So when you place an order to the supplier, you should ask what has been included in the price .
Jessica Magtibay do you already try the aibaba ?
Very detailed and Helpful. Thank you.
Thank you for your comprehensive video.I want to watch another video in paying the invoice with Alipay.
Omg, seem like so complicated to purchase fr Alibaba, i just think to start my small online business which related to my hobby after i watched ur video, i feel that Alibaba is not suitable for me, do u have any idea which platform i suppose to find a correct supplier? I did check fr Ali Express but the shipping cost is higher than the product price, its really insane 😣
EXACTLY!!!
Same.
Same here
YUPPERS..Same Here
Aliexpress is a very good for this kind of small order. Just make sure you need to compare shipping price with different suppliers. Only when you can purchase over than $500, you can start to think about using Alibaba.
Nice video!! Very engaging from beginning to end. Nevertheless, businesses and investment are the easiest way to make money irrespective of which party makes it to the oval office.
very informative! thank u very much! you are a big help!
Love what your doing,and saying keep it up,I like your idea, I'm a single dad wanting to make money,you seems sincer
Hi..do you recommend negotiating even when you think you were given a fare price for the product?
Thank
Yes P.O. we
Yes but
Pop
UI
good day, can you tell me an alternative ways to lower the price of shipping fee. sometimes the total price of the product (even in bulk) is much cheaper than the shipping fee. Thank you
duuuuuuuude literally!!!!!
Hi. Thanks for the comment. It's a very wide question to answer, but just get my conclusion. For air shipping, you'd better to ship over than 100kg. For sea shipping, you'd better to ship over than 2CBM. Then you will get reasonable shipping cost.
You are so good in explaining all the relevant details! Thumbs up!
Thank you for the comment.
Very informative ,it help me a lot also for many people , Thank you very much Mr.Jing
