How did you get screwed by Chinese suppliers ? I deal in china every day have sent over well over 1 million in cash and never got screwed once .

Only way to get screwed is on Poor quality control . what are you looking to buy ?

Gosh id rather send 100,000 to china than 10 thousand within canada / usa .

I'm in the US and have an American in China as a partner in a wholesale / dropship business in Shenzhen. I sort of "live" on forums, developing business relationships around the globe with people who sell dropshipped goods and small bulk buyers.

One of the things I notice is how many people are afraid to do business in China, since they feel they may be sending their hard earned money to scammers and crooks.

So, I have partnered with a lady I have met through a forum in an operation that will verify Chinese businesses. She is in Shenzhen, the "capitol" of China's electronics industry, but also home to many other trading companies, since it's just across the water from Hong Kong. She has several years experience selling by phone and online, so she has a good idea of what is going on.

She will actually visit a business in your behalf, reporting back on what she finds. We have done quite a few and it seems about half we check are exactly what they claim to be (with the exception that virtually all claim to be a factory - few are). But, other than the factory claim, we do find that some inflate their claims, maybe 25% or so.

The remaining 25% are people working from cell phones or outright crooks. We've saved a number of folks some good money. And we've given many others a better night's sleep.

She will also do online checks of Chinese companies outside the local Shenzhen area, verifying licenses, certifications, etc.

Check it out, the cost is literally pocket change.

Personal Visits to Verify Shenzhen Suppliers ONLY $27.50
