Anyone Ever Bought Wholesale Apparel Using Alibaba?

[TENT]

I am looking to buy some backpacks and have a Chinese factory screen print my logo on them.

Does anyone have any connects?

How is shipping worked out?

I just want them to do everything and ship to my house.

How do I avoid scams?

Anyone with insight please help.

I can send you a sample file of suppliers of backpacks. A complete list will cost you though. If you have seen some backpacks in a particular store and want to know who supplies that particular store give me the business name and I can run a query and provide that info to you as well. PM me if you have any questions.

@this guy! No hustling here its simply business. How about you do this right? Call a global trade company and tell them that you would like to find a manufacturer/supplier of x product and that you would like x amount of contacts on the list. Then tell them you would like it for free and see what they tell you. When they tell you they are unable to give it to you for free ask them why and how much do the lists cost. Get back to me and let me know what's the lowest price they charge and the highest price and then you will see why I'm charging. Its business. And yes, the best info is free and I have posted more than enough FREE info on this board from software to books but free doesn't pay my bills in the real world.

So everyone can see that I'm legit PM me and I will send you a "sample" clothing and tech list since those markets are always popular. Call the contacts and verify the info yourselves.

Why not come to a comprimise and have the dudes that want the info to do their market research first - which they are probably not doing - and then have them send *you* a list of potential customers. Knock off what you want for each name on the list.
