Field notes

The workflow starts with an existing product link or photograph rather than product discovery. The site describes reverse-image and keyword searches across Chinese platforms, with 1688 as the first stop, followed by manufacturer screening and business-licence checks. Its inspection sequence includes quantity counts, function tests, measurements, defect logs, photos, and video before the buyer releases the balance. Shipping can be arranged by sea, air, or express to an FBA warehouse, 3PL, or door.
