Sourcing Agent Service: We Buy from China for You

Buying from China, without doing it yourself

Our guides teach you how to source from China on your own. But if you'd rather not navigate Chinese-language platforms, negotiate with suppliers, and arrange freight yourself, we can do it for you.

Email us a purchase request. We find the product, negotiate the price, check quality before anything ships, and deliver to your freight forwarder's warehouse in China — or arrange international shipping straight to your door.

Business Insider recently reported that Public's co-CEO does a month of personal shopping through an AI agent and just taps to confirm payment — even as Amazon blocks pure-agent checkout, which is exactly the gap our service fills: automated legwork, with a human finishing the job.

How it works

1. You email your request. Use the template below — the more detail you give, the faster and more accurate our quote.
2. We reply with an itemized quote within 2 business days. Product cost, our service fee, domestic shipping, and international shipping options, each listed separately.
3. You approve and pay a deposit. Nothing is purchased until you confirm the quote in writing.
4. We buy, inspect, and consolidate. We place the order, verify quantity and quality against your specifications, and combine multiple products into one shipment when it saves you money.
5. We ship. To your forwarder's Chinese warehouse, or door-to-door to your address — your choice.

Service fee

Our service fee is quoted per order — it depends on the product, the quantity, and whether you need quality inspection. You will see the exact fee itemized in our quote before you pay anything. No hidden charges, no surprises.

FAQ

Is there a minimum order? No strict minimum — we handle small trial orders too. Very small orders may carry a minimum service fee, which we will state upfront in the quote.

Which products can you source? General consumer goods, accessories, textiles, small electronics, packaging, and similar categories. If it is made in China, we can probably find it. Tell us what you need.

How do I pay? Payment methods will be confirmed in your quote. We only start purchasing after your deposit is received.

How long does it take? We reply with a quote within 2 business days. Production and shipping time depend on the product — your quote includes a realistic timeline.

Do you ship to my country? Yes. Either to your forwarder's warehouse in China, or door-to-door via our freight partners — state your preference in the request email.
