Check carton quantities against the commercial invoice line by line.
Log sell through by account for the first eight weeks.
Request batch photographs and a packing list prior to shipment.
Agree in advance who pays for return freight on a defect claim.
Keep certificates current and filed against the exact model name.

Frequently asked questions

Should Box 4 be discounted to launch?

A short introductory offer works; repeated hardware discounting damages the perceived value of the range.

Is documentation provided for customs?

Commercial invoice, packing list and the relevant certificates are supplied; the importer's broker handles the declaration.

Can several models be mixed in one shipment?

Yes, mixing models and flavours within a carton or pallet is common and usually helps first time buyers test demand.

What happens if a batch fails inspection?

The agreed procedure normally covers replacement of affected units or credit against the next order, documented before shipment.

Final word
