Properly actually you have a couple of alternatives. You can either buy by means of web sites like alibaba.com which lets you deal straight with suppliers in China or you can deal with an agent.
Dealing with an agent will mean less perform for you but the very same quantity of problems in terms of delivery times, troubles in acquiring the products out of the nation and so on as you would with alibaba, but now you have to spend far more funds to the agent.
I have friends who act as agents and most will say they can get something you need to have, but most specialise in specific places.
Rather friends who trade by way of alibaba will do it this way. They will send you a sample of the solution which you pay a larger cost for, if you are satisfied with the sample then you make a full order. When you do this the value you paid for the sample gets factored into the value.
